City - Roberts Creek countryside State - BRITISH COLUMBIA Country - Canada
About
This was taken at the mouth of Roberts Creek, where it meanders and glides into the Strait of Georgia on the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia. The Creek is a favorite shooting location of mine. Contrast and sharpness was increased digitally. This may augment a Roberts Creek album here, we'll have to see...I took about 100 shots last night at this sunset. It was gorgeous.
Actually, Opal, the winters where I am, surprisingly to some, have very little ice and snow. I am on the west coast of Canada near Vancouver, and the ocean currents that come by here on their way south moderate the temperature, so that winters here only get down to about what the low winter temps are in Texas, where I moved up here from. The winter high temps are alot warmer there than here, though. It is rainy on the Canadian "Sunshine Coast", though, similar to Seattle's weather most of the year. I don't mind the rain, so it's perfect for me here, except I wish the ocean water was warmer. Oh well, it's always SOMETHING, huh? I mean "EH?"... Great for picture-taking, anyway. Thanks for your comment.
The colors are warm and rich, I'd love to live in the area you live, but my mother couldn't tolerate the cold, ice and snow. We moved from North Carolina to here in the panhandle of Florida last year, after two ice storms in a row and the last one caused a tree top to fall on her car and totaled it. One of these days I will probably move back up north.
Beautiful shot Buddy,great reflection colors and cloud formation I appreciate your comments on my"The falls in full view" I am aware that some cropping needed on the sky Best regards
Felipe Against the Light Milton fenomenon Mystery Mountains
Thanx, guys! I looked at both your work and I really enjoyed the peek. Felipe, your "Against the Light" is a beautiful sunset landscape, with the reflecting pool separated by the sihouettes. And Milton, you belie your youth with such breathtaking shots as the ghostly "fenomenon" and "Mystery Mountains"
