Erosion
Chemainus River
12:45 p.m. looking across the Chemainus River
Day trips seem to be (happily) creeping into my life once again. I knew they were there, just lurking under the surface.
Part business, part household errands—the day’s list was checked off early. So there was a slight detour on the way home from Duncan on Vancouver Island. This, and other photos are the result. This particular image can be printed very large with more detail than can been seen on the best of screens.

Salt Spring Library at Moonset
Looks like the local library has gone another step in an effort to protect the public and discourage skateboarders from riding the concrete retaining walls and metal handrails. That’s a new custom fence (on the left above the steps) which curves around the concrete planters. Before the fence was there, it was possible to walk or skate along the planter walls. And it was easy to topple ten feet or more to the bottom of a flight of concrete steps against the building.
Last Light at Fernwood
The last bits of light last night. The colour was strong but only for about a minute (and was missed by the folks who left 10 minutes early :-) then became quite dark with dull greys a couple of minutes later. So the first three and the last two (30 second) exposures were recycled.
In case you are wondering:
Was it really this colour? Yes. (depending on what your monitor is showing you)
Was it really this dark? Yes. (we used a flashlight getting off the beach)
Why do the water and sky look ‘dreamy’? It’s a 30 sec. exposure; the clouds and water are moving so those areas look (intentionally) soft.

The Crossing
The BC Ferry, Howe Sound Queen, coming from Crofton on Vancouver Island nears Vesuvius on Salt Spring Island. On a good day the boat makes 13 round trips.
