Fishing boats at dock in the Fraser River beneath a threatening sky.

Looking through a Chinese moon gate in an orange wall topped with blue tiles. A bench, a potted plant and shrubs are seen beyond.

A torn curtain hangs in the broken upper window of a falling down house. Parts of the broken roof jut out. Leafless tree branches obscure the view.

Lotsa #edge.

An art installation in North Vancouver showing how some people lived during Vancouver’s early days. Living at the edge of the land, living at the edge of society.

That was my thought too. But strangely, the fog unsettled the day upon which it was taken.

June 14. It can’t all be #horizontal.

A foggy day at the ocean. Small horizontal waves move toward a dim horizon.

Jan. 18. From here to the horizon.

Thanks. It’s a good song.

Utility pipes in the ceiling of a parking garage moving left to right with many elbows. A large white pipe and several smaller silver pipes with red elbows joining them.

Rainbow coloured steps lead up to a front porch where a rainbow coloured umbrella leans against the wall.

Feb. 16

Ah, I'd love to wear a rainbow
Every day
And tell the world
That everything's okay
But I'll try to carry off
A little darkness on my back
Till things are brighter
I'm the man in black.
- Johnny Cash

A memorial park bench with a bouquet of white and red flowers sits in the foreground with a lawn and shrubs in the mid-ground and mountains in the background.

In this close-up, a white-painted porch railing angles across the frame, with a blurred brick path beyond it. Three narrow pointed lemon verbena leaves, each about three inches long, cast sword-like shadows across the railing from the unseen morning sun to the left. A small green triangular insect -- a planthopper, looking like a jaunty tiny leaf with skinny legs -- casts its own small shadow among the leaf shadows. 

This week's #BlueSkyArtShow theme is #Small.

Lemon verbena and planthopper. Near Boston. July 2025.

In the foreground, a length of weeds are trapped in a rusty old chain which is bolted to the top of a driftwood log. Fog makes the distant beach and water indistinct. Near the right frame edge, someone has planted a cross made of sticks at the water’s edge.

A stand of moss covered, leafless trees line the edge of an urban park. The trees are side lit by low afternoon sun; the ground is streaked by shadows and frost.
