In the Light

November 5, 2012

in the light, Ganges BC

A foggy morning in Ganges Harbour. I love changes in weather; it’s as though mother nature has given her etch-a-sketch a good shake so we can look at a familiar scene in a new light.

The light here of course is what caught my eye. I’m on the look-out these for views that have a variety of luminance values rather than a variety of colours. Normally, dense fog has a flat grey monochromatic look (which can be beautiful in its own right). The sodium vapour lamps on the dock gave a contrasty, but somewhat ugly yellow colour.

The high contract of the foreground with the low contrast background make for a lovely black and white image.

The Price of Everything

October 27, 2012

Sarah's Firewood

I happily stumbled upon this image while working on a new version of my main website: johncameron.ca

That’s Sarah sitting in the back of her truck, way back in 2009. Although she still delivers a bit of firewood, she works as a dental hygienist now.

And not surprisingly, the price of firewood has gone up a bit.

Outside Marks Work Wearhouse just before closing

A statement about life on the streets of Ganges.

(This photo was taken just as Marks Work Wearhouse surprisingly closed its doors. More on that.)

Not GVM

October 15, 2012

Country Grocer on Salt Spring

That’s the produce, and at the back, the bakery areas of Country Grocer. Not GVM. Got to keep telling myself that.

At least I’m not calling it the K and R.

Portrait

October 8, 2012

actor portrait

A portrait needs to say who you are. Scott’s an actor. He’s got a great look as a mature character.
