Sunrise over Quidi Vidi Gut, St. John's, Newfoundland. Another small fishing village within the city of St. John's. It still contains a number of fishing stores and stages.
Websters Dictionary defines "Gut" in this application as a narrow passage; also: a narrow waterway or small creek, applying to this small passageway out into the North Atlantic.
A tricky passage to navigate, a small boat of recreational boaters attempted it last year and ended up capsized in the water. They were extremely lucky to survive as a privately owned fast rescue craft just happened to be tied up at one of the local wharves and was able to effect a difficult rescue. Here's a link to that amazing story:

*This is a slow exposure shot, done using a 10 stop ND filter. Soon after this shot, I removed the filter, and promptly saw it fall from my hand and roll down the rocks into the ocean*
