Moss Trees

February 8, 2015

Moss Trees

Turning the corner along a new-to-me Salt Spring Island trail yielded this startling view.
More moss bumps, this time growing on trees.
Perhaps this is a metaphor for the startling growth of personal debt in Canada.

Oreos

Oreo Cows

Yesterday I stumbled up this photo from way, way back while looking for images for a client. They are of course on Night Owl Farm, along the Fulford-Ganges superhighway. And of course they are often called ‘Oreo Cows’. But they are Belted Galloways and may be offended by being called Oreos.

And you wouldn’t want to be too offensive:

Oreo Cows

The black part of them looks a lot like the Black Angus my Dad had in Ontario. I wonder where the white oreo filling came from?

Stream in the Clouds

February 6, 2015

Mountain Stream

Back in the mountains. Salt Spring Island’s got a lot of wet going on this time of year.
But…it’s spectacular!
Hiking in solitude, in the clouds and heading for the soft sound of a mountain stream.
I guess it gets better than this, but I’m not sure how.

Change of Pace

Business Portrait

Almost everything I show here on SaltSpringPhotos.com has little or nothing to do with what I do day-to-day. So here’s a tiny glimpse of the commercial side of what I do. Donald came to the studio looking for a business portrait, one where he would look competent and approachable. He wanted a dark background for his new website and liked photos with lots of negative space. I think we nailed it.

OK, that’s enough of that, I’m taking you back into the mountains tomorrow. Dress well, it’s wet up there.

Salt Spring Arbutus

This Arbutus must have had an arduous childhood.
