A life Twisted

Posted on 11/16/2019 12:43:00 PM by

A life Twisted. Last weekend went for a hike and found this arbutus tree that seems to be confused about which way is up. Just twisting like a cork screw out to the salty inlet. I thought it was pretty cool..

Dyea Point

Dyea Point. Another flashback from my trip to Alaska, this time in Skagway, AK. Such a beautiful city. At the end of the stay someone recommended a small hike out to Dyea Point, boy was it worth it. Do you agree?.

Wasted Youth Hang Out

Posted on 2/05/2014 02:19:00 PM by


Wasted Youth Hang Out. On one of my favourite walking bridges, I decided to check out what was under it. I knew there would be people who hung out under this bridge (although no one on this particular day). Clearly a lot of work has gone into personalizing this place. View the larger version on Flickr

Neglect

Neglect. This set of tracks runs through Victoria, but ever since they stopped the train because they are replacing the bridge at the end of the tracks. These tracks are getting rusty, and neglected, leaves are not removed. IMO, makes for some great shots! View the larger version on Flickr

The last straggly hairs on bald Mountain

The last straggly hairs on bald Mountain. This isn't actually a mountain, and it's not actually bald. But when I got to this section, with the moss covering the ground and these arbutus trees sticking out like straggly hair, I couldn't help but laugh a little as I took this shot.

Destiny

Destiny. My short walk on the weekend resulted in a lot of shots that I like. This one was one of the paths I walked down. I can't say why the top of this hill has so few trees, when the one next to it (taller) clearly does. So I'm not above the tree line (if I was I'd also be above the fog!) but it's kind of a neat aura up here with the trees all spread out, and the fog closing you in. View the larger version on Flickr

The path to Enlightenment

The path to Enlightenment. Paths, fog and of course Arbutus trees! what could go wrong? I climbed up this mountain in hopes to get above the fog, but it was just too high, and I got nothing but foggy shots. Having said that, I think I got some good ones, what do you think?

Longing for the Day

Longing for the Day. I haven't had time to get out and take as many new pictures as I've wanted, so I started going through some old shots. This one caught my eye, remembering back in 2009 when I went to Maui, Hawaii. Just the relaxation of sitting on the beach watching the sun go down. How I long for that day again!

1000s of years

1000s of years. It's amazing to me what man can build, and it's even more amazing to me what mother nature can take back. This is the roof of one of the buildings in the Forbidden City, at one time pristeen and free of dirt, now contains grass that simply decided to grow there. Mother Nature for the win!
