Sandstone Sculptures at East Point

May 25, 2016

Sandstone at Saturna Island1

 

It’s a nature treasure hunt along this sandstone shoreline. I’m willing to bet you can’t limit yourself to a dozen photos the next time you visit this area and decide to take a few photos. I know I can’t. And I wouldn’t have been able to way back when there were just 12 frames per roll on 120mm film.

East Point, So Close but So Far

East Point, Saturna Island, BC

Saturna Island is one of my favourite getaway spots. It’s only 15 miles from Salt Spring but can be a very long and convoluted way via ferry. As in four or five hours.

And East Point is a wonderful place to explore, especially in the early morning and in the evening when you may be the only one there. On this recent morning, I was getting in one more photo walk along the shore before heading back to the ferry terminal for the 10:20 am boat to Swartz Bay.

Come back tomorrow for two more sandstone sculpture images from this shoreline.

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?
