Equinox

March 20, 2016

Salt Spring Equinox

On this first day of Spring, I was looking for an equinox image for our pals at National Geographic. And somehow I ended back at my new favourite Salt Spring Island mountain stream. In the rain this time.

I had expected there to be more flow in the stream, after seeing the torrent nine days ago. And I didn’t expect to see any of the iridescent green moss left either. I like the new cleaned-up, wet look and I think this it the best image yet. It seems more alive and vibrant.

Sometimes you need to work at a photograph until you get it right. Now I’m wondering what it might look like in moonlight or after a decent snow…

Any thoughts?

First Performer Portrait

First Performer Portrait

It’s been a great two days of portrait shooting. Here’s the first finished GISPA performer image. The portraits will be printed and on display in the ArtSpring Theatre lobby at this year’s show. (April 19, 20, 21)

Performing Arts, including GISPA (the Gulf Islands School of Performing Arts) at Gulf Islands Secondary School is my business cause.

Filed under ‘things you don’t see in the city’.  Is signage getting out of control in your neck of the woods?

Fence Light Show

March 5, 2016

Fence Scene

This fence runs east-west and regularly delights us with the way the light plays across the boards early and late in the day. The fence was treated with LifeTime Wood Treatment, a  non-toxic wood stain years ago. In the winter when the surface gets wet in the rain, the boards get darker. Then, as the sun comes out, the boards begin to dry and lighten, and the patterns change. Simple pleasures.

At SaltSpring Island Middle School

March 5, 2016

Middle School on Salt Spring

Three middle school boys caught working. They’re hockey players too I’m told (which is not that easy on the Island as there’s no arena and no ice).
