After a dark mild winter, every bit of sunshine needs to be documented. These budding trees were caught showing off briefly on a red stucco wall.
The Crossing
The BC Ferry, Howe Sound Queen, coming from Crofton on Vancouver Island nears Vesuvius on Salt Spring Island. On a good day the boat makes 13 round trips.
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?
Gulf Islands View
Here’s another Saturday home. We’re looking (from Salt Spring) through Captain Passage with Salt Spring on the left, Prevost on the right and Galiano in the background. And Vancouver behind the clouds. This is a small portion of the upper deck of a two-deck home on a 25 acre estate now on the market (for less than a knock-down in Vancouver…).
Fence Light Show
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.
