No Wonder

June 15, 2016

It’s no wonder visitors like to stop by in the sunny season. We used to sail in the Gulf Islands and parts beyond and always liked coming into this harbour.

We’re taking off (see what we did there?) for a few days and will likely be back posting photos by Tuesday afternoon.

Needs a Second Look

Taken on a recent startlingly-blue-sky-day, this photo may need a second look. There’s no skullduggery going on here, but what exactly are you seeing?

Equinox

March 20, 2016

Salt Spring Equinox

On this first day of Spring, I was looking for an equinox image for our pals at National Geographic. And somehow I ended back at my new favourite Salt Spring Island mountain stream. In the rain this time.

I had expected there to be more flow in the stream, after seeing the torrent nine days ago. And I didn’t expect to see any of the iridescent green moss left either. I like the new cleaned-up, wet look and I think this it the best image yet. It seems more alive and vibrant.

Sometimes you need to work at a photograph until you get it right. Now I’m wondering what it might look like in moonlight or after a decent snow…

Any thoughts?
