Salt Spring Photographer John Cameron
Busy day yesterday, a morning photoshoot on location for an upcoming video.
And back in the studio for an afternoon tangling with Sean’s creative insects. Salt Spring artists are constantly extending their ideas, and Sean is no exception. In the bonus photo below you can see an additional detail of the side of one insect. That tiny stainless handle is the crank for a hidden music box…
Saw this small herd of deer grazing in a forest on our Salt Spring dining room table and thought it might make a seasonal Sunday still life.

So here we are getting distracted on a real estate shoot and looking over this mystery car in bay number one of a three car garage. Beyond there’s a crushed rock parking lot a fabulous home with a 180 degree view of Salt Spring (including Ganges), the ocean, outer Gulf Islands, Georgia Strait, the North and West Vancouver hillsides and the snow covered coastal mountains beyond.
Any car buffs out there? What’s the car?
I’m sure it’s not the Batmobile…
While you’re mulling that over, here’s a look thorough a longish lens. Taken from a deck on the view side of the house.
Bonus photo:
Large mirrored wall display in a high end Vancouver store during the lead-up to Christmas.
This is a random post, a Friday flashback (the 1800’s), or whatever you’d like it to be. Just a bit of a change-up from the norm at Salt Spring Photos to see if anyone notices.
Above is Random Passage. Or, more accurately part of the movie set of Random Passage at New Bonaventure near Trinity, Newfoundland. Pretty much as far away from Salt Spring as possible while still in Canada.
Wikipedia says,
Random Passage is a 1992 novel by Newfoundland author Bernice Morgan… It is a historical novel about the inhabitants of Cape Random, a small outport where survival was dependent on catching and selling fish in exchange for supplies. It is set in colonial Newfoundland, over the span of many years.
The TV set was made for a mini-series in 2002.
We visited the area in 2005 and grabbed a few photos while out expanding our cultural knowledge of this country.
