A coastal relic living in Campbell River, BC., rattling around the beaches and the bush. Hobbies are anything nautical, unsuccesful prospecting and treasure hunting, gardening and photography. Have built and operated 5 commercial salmon/log salvage boats, and still love playing with tools, and messing about in boats.BIO"I have often thought in all the world, The saddest thing to be; Old admirals that feel the wind, But never put to sea." Al Stewart, fron Past, Present, and Future. After a lifetime of fishing, beachcombing,(log salvage) and generally messing about, health issues have put me on the beach for good. You never completely get the salt water out of your veins, though. This gallery gives me a chance to fish some memories out of shoe boxes and share them, something that's rapidly becoming another hobby. I began fishing for money at age 11, 6 if you count trading rockcod for popsicles. I hope you enjoy my reminiscing.

This is typically what i'd expect this area to look like (sadly, i've never been there). Thanks for showing my i wasn't totally wrong ;). Is there any way to mount a polarizing filter on your cam? Could intensify the colours a lot with weather like that :) Wonderful image Jim .. just have to love that place!

Beautifully composed shot! The reflection of the clouds in the water is devine! How many hours till showtime? (new camera)? I have a feeling you're going to blow us away.:)

Nice crisp clear shot Jim! Love the stillness of the water and the reflections! Those mountains in the bg don't detract any from it either! So beautiful there, your images make me want to come there to do a shoot! Maybe one day?
