April twilight scene. 5:45 am, documenting the start of a new day. Facing 70 degrees (ENE) from south of the 537/653 line.

The Gulf Islands School of Performing Arts is rehearsing for their May show at ArtSpring. They plan to create a display of cast member photos in the lobby.

Happy Earth Day, 2013
You may have noticed I’ve filed this photo under the ‘Daytrip’ category. Because we live on an island, many of us make a number of ‘day trips’ off the island. And it’s time to acknowledge that here on the Salt Spring Island daily photo website.
By the way, a quick way to search the four years of photos is by category. No need to use the search box on the top right of the page if you already know the photo category you’re looking for.
For example, clicking below the photo on the red word ‘Daytrip’ will find all the photos filed under the ‘Daytrip’ category; in this case only one. Clicking on ‘Photog’s Favourites’ will show you all the images filed under that category, two days at a time. Just keep clicking on ‘Older Posts’ to go back in time. (just to be clear and to avoid arguments later, that’s an expression; you won’t really be going back in time)
OK, getting back to today’s photo. (The Koksilah River)
It was taken on a day trip to the Cowichan Valley on Vancouver Island. To the recently rebuilt Kinsol Trestle. Recommended.

Have you been to the trestle?

Light and shadows play across cedar shingle siding on a Salt Spring home. Should we be more creative in the finish of our homes and businesses?
(This reminds me of another bit of construction creativity, the outhouse on Chocolate Island in Ganges Harbour. Featured as the Salt Spring photo of the day on June 27, 2011.)
