The dawn sky started off clear with some dark clouds to the East and North. Within an hour, the view from the Fernwood area towards Archive Pass changed dramatically. Another hour would bring snow.

Well, it was frozen Friday morning. But it seems our three day winter may be over.
Cusheon Lake, located on central Salt Spring Island, does freeze some years. And has been the site of a few multi-day hockey games. Kind of a show-up-and-play type game.
*Special Delivery
The saltspringphoto of the day is not normally delivered on weekends, but there are lots of snow photos just going to waste. Tune in tomorrow for another.

This stunning winter view from the main dock in Ganges Harbour has been featured on Salt Spring Photos before. But not like this. From mid December to mid January, the sun rises at the end of the Harbour and some days puts on a spectacular show.The Seahorse is artfully anchored. And the geese seem to commute every morning at sunrise.

Just another spectacularly colourful morning looking South-East in Ganges Harbour on Salt Spring Island. That floatplane, heading to Vancouver, is probably carrying some folks who want to pick up the pace a bit…

Thursday morning, 7:48 am. Under the watchful eye of a resident tug, the pre-dawn glow illuminates the sea and sky. A Saltspring Air flight stops in Ganges before heading to the Vancouver seaplane terminal.
This post marks a year of Salt Spring Photos on this “new” website and almost three years of documenting the place and lifestyle of this beautiful Gulf Island.
Thanks for visiting. See you Monday, January 2, 2012.
