A large ferry is dwarfed by British Columbia’s coastal mountains.
This is the Queen of Burnaby during a recent evening sailing from Comox to Powell River.
As mentioned earlier, Salt Spring Photos is branching out this summer with short trips to beautiful Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands and area. Enjoy the ride!
A lovely peaceful July morning which turned into yesterday’s perfect summer day.

Here’s a view of the sun from the ‘clothesline observation platform’ at our house. This is the Sun through some Arbutus branches. I’ve not seen the sky and sun like this. Very smoky up the mountain where we live. Lots of haze down at ocean level, but no smoke smell there tonight.
A delightful Saturday sunset as seen from Fernwood Pier on the north end of Salt Spring Island
This is a great place to get a reprieve from the unusual late day heat, particularly with a north-west breeze.
Inland on the west-facing rock the thermometer read 31 degrees. But it was goose-bump/chicken-skin weather watching the sunset.
Even though there’s normally a lot more water in this river at this time of year, it’s still a great place to cool off on a hot day. There are interesting rocks to explore, some deep pools and some shady areas.
