Light in the Darkness, Squamish River Valley, Tantalus Lookout, Sea to Sky Highway, Near Squamish, British Columbia, Canada

Hunting in the Dark for Light

I go hunting in the dark
For light, I find
Where eyes see naught

For in the darkness
Beauty thrives

Captured here by glassy eyes

Porteau Cove Provincial Park, Sea to Sky Highway, Howe Sound, British Columbia,Canada

Dive Markers

They dive below
A place called
Sea to Sky
Explore a world
Few eyes will see
Hidden
Underneath
A land of
10,000 photographs

Sun and Sea, Howe Sound, Sea to Sky Highway, British Columbia, Canada

Black and White

From behind the clouds
The sun leaps out
Glares in my eyes
The world becomes
A contrast of
Simple black and white

The details lost
No greys or shadows
The colours lost
No textured nuance

And it occurs to me
The same thing happens
When I shine the light too hard
On the truths I’m seeking

Tantalus Mountain Range, Sea to Sky Highway, British Columbia, Canada

The Battle of Tantalus

Serrated edge
Cleaves the blue
Where clouds fall free
To either side

Observing from
Peaceful repose
While nature wars
‘Tween earth and sky

Dusk, Howe sound, Britannia Beach, Sea to sky Highway, British Columbia, Canada

Somnambulant Blues

Somnambulant blues
Settle onto silent sound
Lazy breezes ruffle gentle ripples
Lapping languid shorelines

And I
I have run out of
Unsubtle intertwining alliterations
So I kick back
And enjoy this glorious moment

Tantalus

They rise
Thrust up
By the collisions
Of Continents

Saw blades
Of rock
And ice
Lifted into sky

Tantalize ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #26

Tantalizing
Tantalus
Dragon-backed ridges
Under indigo
And ice

I stop here
Often
To Wonder
To be
Tantalized

Wildfire Haze II

Layer upon layer

Smoke on smoke
Thickens, on the rise

Islands and mountains
Fading, in steps of blues and tourquoise

Tantalus and Cheakamus

Whistler is something of a second home to me, which is great. The resort provides all kinds of wonderful activities. Skiing, of course, and mountain biking. But also, swimming, canoeing, hiking, snow shoeing. Having a pint or four at the Dubh Linn Gate pub while Ruckus Deluxe takes the stage.

Ghosts in the Sound

On a day flattened white
By wildfire and sunshine
I go hunting
For ghosts in the Sound
