Salt Spring Photographer John Cameron
If you look hard you can see the Vancouver area, Robert’s Bank Terminal, and on the far right, Tsawwassen Ferry Terminal.
This photo was taken as part of my business cause: performing arts at Gulf Islands Secondary school. It was made during yesterday’s dress rehearsal.
The photographic challenges were many. The rehearsal runs continuously, and while I was free to move, the actors were almost constantly moving so I was continuously unsure what would happen next. And there are no ‘do-overs.
Further, the lighting was a combination of harsh directional sunlight mixed with solid black shadows.
This makes getting a decisive moment—both realistically and technically—hugely difficult. So when the occasional image, like the one above successfully captures a moment, I count it a challenge met.
SaltSpring Air and Harbour Air kicked off ‘May Long’ by treating folks on Salt Spring Island to a ‘soirée on the docks’ complete with oysters, bbq, drinks, freebies and of course a tour of the recently rebranded Otter airplane. Excellent event from first-rate folks providing superior service.
