One of my favourite shots in the early morning. Right off the waterfront in Campbell River. Water like glass. Sky fog. Mist. Damp. Chill. Grey. Perfect winter weather. I love this.
This is at sunrise the moon still sharp in the sky.Snow on the mountains. Out in the frost. Not the snow like back east, but we have the frost and fog that chills to the bone. It's beautiful. I must remember to wear boots next time. Sandals and frost and deer poop just do NOT mix.
This is the only bush that is flowering. Just can't remember its name, unfortunately. It flowers off and on all year. Gathers frost. But does not die. The deer like to rub their noses against the stalky branches.
One of my favourite places in the early morning is at the marina. Don't often go there in the morning, but this week we were toddling by. The fog, the mist, the grey. Discovery Passage blanketed in grey felt.
And when we DO get a bit of sun, it melts frost on the branches. The water clings for a while and then disappears. Just to refreeze the next morning. Then starts dripping again. Like a nose with allergies.
At the marina once more. The light blue and grey. Foghorn sounding off the water.
The frost clings to the last bits of summer last year.
Then the sunrise hits the mountains, turning everything pink.
The moon holds its own ........
And the curry plant stalks are frozen like sea anenomes.
Mt. Washington shudders under new snow. And there's hot tea waiting to steam away the chill.
