A quiet morning on St. Mary Lake, Salt Spring Island.

Continuing from yesterday’s story (you know the ferry lousy with photogs), rather than wait for the sun to go down, I turned around, crossed the Skeena Queen’s deck and saw this peaceful scene.
Photos are where you point your camera. Profound, huh?

Coming home from a day off the rock we were treated to this scene looking toward Cape Kepple on Salt Spring Island. The artfully arranged and graphic cloud created a beautiful reflection.
There were a crowd of photographers on the boat, but I managed to get a spot.

I can upon this solo swimmer, a young cormorant I believe, on a dull Ganges day. He (She?) was quite wary. We played ‘Guess where I’m going to surface’ for two minutes before I was alone.

Crossing the finish line.

The sun pops up over the Sarah Way area. Fog rolls in over Ford lake (foreground centre) and the Fulford inlet (right). That’s Mt. Baker in the distance left of centre and, if you squint at this small version of the image, you can see Mount Rainier on the right.
