Salt Spring Dawn Colours

May 15, 2016

Fern wood's 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.

45 Degrees from Yesterday

May 2, 2016

Fernwood Morning
This image was made a couple of minutes after the one presented yesterday. The camera was rotated about 45 degrees to the right, away from the light. The sky is darker, but the light from the approaching sunrise is already much stronger (and is beginning to wash out the colour in the clouds). Details on the shoreline are beginning to appear.

Gulf Islands Morning

March 27, 2016

Gulf Islands Morning

This photograph could be titled ‘Waiting for the sunrise which didn’t happen’. Well, it did slowly get brighter, but there was no blast of colour in the clouds. It was however, an unusually tranquil morning; virtually silent with no road, water or air traffic. Lovely.

A February Morning at Fernwood Pier

February 25, 2016

Salt Spring February Morning

6:30 a.m. Fernwood
There was thick fog, as in 10 metre visibility, along the road to the Fernwood area this morning. But the ocean was fog free and quiet. The geese though were horrendously loud; folks along North Beach Road must have somehow gotten used to the daily alarm.
