So many pictures!

Wow, the more I go through my computer files… trying to sort the mass of data that I have the more I find shots that I have taken but have had no time to process (digitally of course). Here are a couple more that I took at Shannon Falls this past summer.

The first is a zoomed-in shot of the falls themselves. I chose settings that permitted a slightly slower shutter speed to give a light blurring to the waterfall. In my experimenting in processing I found the black and white rendition moved me most.

The second is also near Shannon Falls. On our way back to the parking lot to leave the sun started coming over the mountain and fell rather strikingly on leaves by the creek. They really stood out and I tried to capture that.

Sea to Sky…

… is the highway between Horseshoe Bay (North Vancouver) and Whistler, BC. Late in the September Christine and I took a little weekend getaway in Whistler. We’ve tried to make it an annual thing for us. We usually stay at the Whistler Pinnacle (although quite frankly I feel the hotel has been gradually heading downhill since we first started going up there.) Every time we go we also make a point of having a (in my case) steak dinner at Hy’s Steakhouse.

So about once a year I can say that I’ve had a really good steak!

Either way. Here are a couple of shots I took of the mountain landscape between Squamish and Shannon Falls, not too far outside North Van. I’d say my favourite is the last one. It can be really powerful country up that way!
