Earlier in the winter, I went over to Salt Spring Island on a Sunday (and sunny it was for a change) and found some great images. I was taking photos by the Ruckle Heritage Farm and this gentleman rode by in a fur coat on an e-bike. Never know what to expect but be ready. #saltspringisland

ethereal

ethereal diamonds
glisten
in rain drenched forest;

the silence hums.

pistils & petals & stamens

pistils & petals & stamens,
O my!

you take my breath away
just sitting there
all unassuming like

until suddenly!
a beam of magic
late-winter mid-afternoon sunlight bathes and anoints you,

almost animating you,
making me want to sink deep
into your erotic splendour.
