Late afternoon light at play on the old Mouat’s building in the heart of Ganges.

There have been grape vines on Salt Spring Island for hundreds of years, but in the last ten to twenty years wineries have come into their own. And this is the perfect time of year to have a look.

I saw this truck a couple of weeks ago and have been meaning to make a portrait. A foggy afternoon seemed perfect to capture the muted colours, the texture and the mood of this old workhorse put out to pasture.
It’s a Chevy 1420 series pickup, probably built in the early 1950’s. But I’ll leave that to the experts. Anyone?

Leaves floating in a tidal flat.
While travelling near Booth Bay, I noticed leaves floating towards the bridge. I had two thoughts, one more lofty than the other:
1. another surprising nature display; Wow!
2. hey, that reminds me of Poohsticks…
I’m wondering and wondering which is the better thought; oh bother!
