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.

Where did the fish go?

Where did the fish go?

Fishing on St. Mary Lake in the pouring rain. The absence of NHL games has led to all kind of alternative activities.

Good Book

Man reads book on bench during a rainy day

This man is reading Lee Child’s Affair, on a bench protected from the rain, outside Mouat’s Home Hardware.

The bench honours Tom Shelby, Coast Guard seaman, who lost his life January 20, 1989 assisting a tug in stormy seas off the north coast of Vancouver Island.

Out of the Rain, Thank-You!

People walk by as this girl escapes the downpour, reading and eating at Arigato Sushi & Teriyaki in Gastronomic (or if you prefer, Gasoline) Alley.
