Salt Spring Photographer John Cameron
Cameron (family dog for those just joining us) took me along the waterside trail to the point past Burgoyne Bay.

This is one of those things photographers like to do: photograph what catches your eye, then turn around to check if there’s something equally good or better behind you. On these hikes I rarely lug along the heavy professional gear; lately just the diminutive Ricoh GR, a very serious fixed lens camera that fits in a pocket.
Fresh Daisies
On our morning walk in the highlands yesterday, Cameron and I were looking to see if a first Daisy had reared it’s pretty head. And this little bunch was first up, just in time for Mother’s Day.
This is an iPhone snapshot; wasn’t sure it would work—even for the web—as the flowers were doing a little dance in the wind.
For those of you not currently living on, or visiting Salt Spring Island, we’ve been having summer-like weather lately. So summer-like that just around the corner from this scene were some naked human seals— jumping into the icy ocean water and splashing about.
