Salt Spring Photographer John Cameron
8 pm East Point, Saturna Island
A late summer trip to Saturna, so close but (by ferry) so far.
After the sun set, there were a few magical moments in the eastern sky; the clouds lit up and were reflected in the blue water. A ‘supermoon’ provided amazing ambiance. And a warm light breeze began to pattern the still ocean surface.
Spectacular really. And then we turned to look at the western sky…but that’s tomorrow’s photo of the day.
The Bus (aka Wild Thyme Coffee House), Saturna Island
A café with seating upstairs on the double decker bus. There’s an interesting story of how it came to be.
The young woman (back) is explaining her latest drawing. She told me it was her 43rd drawing of the tiny house she hopes to have built. Her job in The Bus gives her some experience in small spaces…
*this is another ‘Daytrip’ posting; brace yourself as there are a few more Saturna photos coming…

Man scooters by an unusual Salt Spring sight
This customized International 7300, visiting from Oregon, was carefully not parked downtown during the long weekend. Good plan.
The vehicle was produced from 2004 to 2008, is a diesel 4×4 and weighs twice as much as the original giant Hummer.
I like the colour.
Another ‘day trip’ photo from Vancouver
Brazillian graffiti artist twins, Gustavo and Otavio Pandolfo, have transformed the huge silos at Ocean Concrete in Vancouver’s Granville Island into a 360 degree, 23 metre tall ‘mural’.
The Granville Island area attracts over 10 million visitors a year, including me. It’s good to get off ‘the rock’ (Salt Spring) occasionally to see the world…
