Santa’s a busy guy. Good of him to fly to Salt Spring and take part in Christmas on Salt Spring.
Salt Spring Insect
Shaun Goddard is a Salt Spring artist who creates whimsical insects like the one above at The Farmhouse Gallery.
In the light
Life is full of these short moments; the interaction of light and face remind us to keep observing.
This photo was taken at an all candidates meeting of school trustees. The girl in the photo is, I believe, a leadership student who was helping run the meeting. She looked down at her notes and into the light from the high windows of the multipurpose room.
The Face of Remembrance Day
A beautiful and telling face from the 2011 Remembrance Day ceremony on Salt Spring Island.
On a related and personal note, we recently lost our favourite veteran, Jim Green. Part of his story is in Friday’s Lives Lived column of the Globe and Mail.
Secret Weapon
The women’s Div 2 team played the first half short one player, but held the Castaways to a 0-0 draw. Injured high schooler Ashley Swinton “couldn’t watch anymore and decided to play through the pain for the second half”. Big difference; lots of scoring chances and a 1-0 win over the Castaways. The Salt Spring women remain in first place.
Above, Ashley beats her check and surprises the keeper with a scalding low shot to the bottom corner to score the game’s only goal.
*update: in her next game Ashley scored 5 goals.
