An interesting morning sky, with a very brief moment of delightful colour.
And only one other person enjoying the sight (with a camera, on the dock).
I wonder if that type of cloud over Galiano has a name…

Gulf Islands Triptych
Three images which show part of the view from a south Salt Spring ‘cottage’ were commissioned last fall and will soon hang in the client’s home.
The images will be printed in high resolution black and white, likely 24 x 16 inches each, and mounted on aluminum (as imagined above) for a crisp aesthetic as the dominant feature of a main living area.
A fourth image (also part of the view), taken just after sunset with Swartz Bay and Sidney in the foreground and extending to Mount Rainier, was also provided.
(here is the center image, quickly converted to black and white)
On a somewhat related note:
Congratulations to a pair of daily viewers from the Seattle area who have recently hung a beautifully framed, limited edition print of ‘Sunrise Swans’ in their lovely home. Thanks for supporting SaltSpringPhotos.com!
Don’t Count Your Chickens
I popped by Florence Roberge’s a couple of days ago and saw a ‘head and shoulders’ portrait of a chicken.
It was 5 or 6 feet tall!
I really liked the ‘quick sketch’ as is and took the above snapshot.
I thought this was a great finished piece. The huge scale was amazing and the black and white ‘sketch’ would look great in a lot of places.
Yesterday I was by again on business and grabbed another snapshot (below) of the same piece. Quite the transformation.
I don’t believe it’s spoken for yet. If you’ve got just the right spot, give Florence a shout (website)!
Sign of the Season on Salt Spring Island
Standoff
Cameron found this playmate at the veterinarian’s farm yesterday.
* update:
Thought I’d share this comment received via private email this morning, “Now you blew it! : > ) One day after Chinese New Years year of the sheep, you missed a great joke. And what’s with this dispute about whether its the year of the sheep or year of the goat? Both seem mentioned on wiki. Anyway for Salt Spring, either could not be more appropriate. Happy New Year John”
