Salt Spring Photographer John Cameron
Here’s a dose of cold, harsh light of day as we close the gate on February.
Lots of gates on Salt Spring like this one: almost always open, a chain but no lock, seen better days, repaired a few times, and growing some moss and left-over green slime from a dark winter.
Looking forward to March, Daylight Savings Time on the 10th, unofficial start to the allergy season and at the end of the month, Easter Weekend and the official start of the tourist season. :)
Division 1 Salt Spring was all over Division 2 Lakeside in a 4 to 1 victory in Jackson Cup play. Here Gord Akerman tangles with the Lakeside keeper.
p.s.
ever wonder what happens in soccer in just less than one-half second?
Down, but not out. Looks like it comes with a spare hood. BYO windshield.
The Salt Spring Skatepark is an interesting location to find these delicate flowers.
Actually, the Snowdrops were here first. Welcome skaters.
