The first crop of hay is drying in the fields as you read this. And dry it will with a toasty weekend ahead.
Butterfly!
Time to fly for this GISS Music and GISPA student at Butterfly, the Gulf Islands Secondary School end-of-semester music performance at ArtSpring on Salt Spring Island.
Instructor Bruce Smith helps students perform this kind of metamorphosis every year. It’s fascinating to see who’s going to steal the show each semester. (Two unique shows actually, Bruce—a kindred type A personality—just has to get every detail right. And thus is driven to produce two somewhat different shows Wednesday and Thursday nights)
This photo was taken during the dress rehearsal. Nice energy for a rehearsal; I just wish you could hear this photo!
p.s.
I look forward to another stunning performance from this young woman and her peers at GISPA’s Night Circus next week.
It’s Foxglove Time!
Foxgloves burst out of the ground in May and are around for much of the summer.
These two were growing together on the west side of a Salt Spring Island mountain.
Nice work Mother Nature!
Leaf Palette
A winter’s worth of artwork and revisions*.
A humble Arbutus leaf lying on the roadside.
I must have walked by hundreds of times.
But finally saw it yesterday.
—
* by Mother Nature, not me.
I made no processing manipulations to the image.
Morning Fence
Early each morning—for a few minutes— this fence puts on a shadow play.
