A very interesting rock formation at a fairly low tide. The reef parallels the shore and the road. With only the odd tree between you and the ocean, it’s a captivating effect.
Reef Beach
The Islands at Sunset
8:48 p.m. A summer-like, Gulf Islands sky, in May. Mountain layers at no charge.
Salt Spring Dawn Colours
5:38 am at Fernwood Pier
Although the sun had technically risen, from Fernwood Beach, it hadn’t yet risen above Galiano Island. So this area was still in a twilight state.

In my mind’s eye the dock railings are a bright ‘government-dock’ red. They started that way but haven’t been repainted for a few years. A closer look in daylight confirms the railings are a faded, almost pinkish-red colour now.
One View, Two Times
Twilight. Two photographs from the same beach.
But are these both morning photos, both evening photos, or one of each? Feel free to comment.

p.s.
We’ve seen also seen the view from this beach in a moment of stunning colour.
Morning Civil Twilight Colours
The sky colours are more intense during civil twilight* than they are after sunrise, as shown in the above photo taken from Fernwood Pier.
There’s a beam of light in the sky and reflected in the water; apparently this is called a sun pillar. And to the right, an aging condensation trail from a high flying jet.
