A bit of Mano a mano in our front yard.
Many years ago, when we moved to Salt Spring Island, the deer here were, well laughable. The size of a dog. And not healthy looking. Umm…not so much in 2014.

A bit of Mano a mano in our front yard.
Many years ago, when we moved to Salt Spring Island, the deer here were, well laughable. The size of a dog. And not healthy looking. Umm…not so much in 2014.

A de Havilland Beaver heads out Ganges Harbour last week though sea fog on the sunrise flight to downtown Vancouver.

Crofton and the mill on Vancouver Island as seen earlier this week from western Salt Spring Island.

An icy morning with sea mist and Breeze at anchor.

Certainly one of the iconic Salt Spring Island scenes. We’re looking from Salt Spring southward towards Sansum Narrows. That’s Salt Spring on the left and Vancouver Island to the right (west). Maple Bay is tucked in around the western point. A recent photo of the day was also looking towards Maple Bay but from Mount Maxwell.
The vapour trails in the sky show the paths of flights from Vancouver Airport heading toward the USA and beyond.
(This scene is faithfully portrayed on a colour balanced monitor. The post-sunset colours are what was seen at the time the image was captured. I say this only because of the disturbing trend toward ‘over-photoshopped’ images we see on the web and on TV.)


7:45 a.m. Salt Spring Airport
Stunning sunrise, snow, frost and an icy mist. People, dogs, cameras and baggage.
The morning de Havilland Beaver flights to downtown Vancouver and YVR.
