Blush
The pink hue from a sunset lit up the receding snow atop these mountains. Reminds me of a cupcake topped with Betty Crocker pink frosting, albeit a meagre amount of icing sugary goodness in this case.
Watership Down
You know those psychological tests where you look at ink spots and interpret from the shapes what you see? This was like my own Rorschach test, but using clouds instead of ink spots. Easter has come and gone but I still see bunnies, just like in Richard Adams' novel Watership Down.
Razorback Mountain
This is one of the sights you'll take in between Merritt and Hope if you travel the Coquihalla Highway that connects the Interior to the Coast.
Flying High
These guys caught me off guard in trying to get the right lens on my camera in time to get a half-decent photo while traveling down the highway past Hope. Apparently this is called aerotowing. The tow plane was likely towing the glider to the place and height where the glider pilot would have released the rope. I couldn't stick around long enough to confirm this is what happened though.
Climbing the Walls
I have trouble enough with recreational wall climbing, nevermind what would be rock climbing the real deal here. Don't leave the carabiner clips and chalk at home for this one.
Okanagan Sun
The pine trees in the foreground are a good indication that this picture originated from the Interior region of British Columbia. It is a Sunday sunrise over Okanagan Lake.
Spur of the Moment Sunset
I didn't have my camera with me when I happened upon this sunset over some farmland in Walnut Grove. I couldn't let it go to waste - my camera phone had to do.
Mountain Majesty
During a jaunt across the Golden Ears Bridge with my bicycle I had a nice view of the mountain range on the north side. The sun trying to break through the clouds highlighted the snow-capped peaks. Even dreary days don't take away from the surrounding beauty here.
Burrard Inlet Looks Like Summer With a Bit of Winter, But It’s Spring
This picture strikes me as strange. There's snow-capped mountains in the background. Not a cloud in the sky. A sailboat in the foreground. Some people were outside on this day in shorts. Others had pants and jackets on. It's March, and it's beautiful.
Postcard From the Edge
Being situated at the westernmost part of the British Columbia mainland grants unlimited picturesque sunsets. It's a free refill of them nightly and never two the same.
