365 Project – Day 326

Out walking with my dog Zeus we came across this small lake, near Lost Lake. I love the colours in the rain.

This lovely couple had been together for 21 years and you really would think that they had only just met, they seemed so perfect together. We were lucky to get a warm sunny day on Whistler for a 45 minute portrait session with a lot of variety.

I was lucky enough to be at the Roundhouse on Whistler Mountain at exactly the right time to see this black – tailed deer. It was not too bothered about me, letting me get fairly close to get this shot – I only had a small lens with me, not expecting to see wildlife in this area. The mountains in the background include Blackcomb and are part of the Spearhead Range.

Rob and I hiked the Chief in Squamish today. As the sign says at the bottom, this is no walk in the park! It’s only 600 metre elevation gain but it does it very, very steeply. It’s like an hour long stair-master. Worth it for the view from the top, though.

Great view from the Chief, Squamish

This goes to show that you should always have your camera with you – the rainbow over Whistler and Blackcomb mountains was only there for 5 minutes or so. Something about rainbows that just makes you have to go and look at them.

365 Project – Day 306

Another late night shoot after a busy day. Crazy amount of stars. Unfortunately there’s also a lot of light pollution right outside my house. If it’s clear tomorrow I think I’ll go star gazing somewhere darker.

This is the first clear night we’ve had in Whistler for I don’t know how long. Nice to see the stars out, even with the light pollution from the buildings.

365 Project – Day 246

Apparently out of nowhere and without being forecast a thunder storm happened over Whistler Mountain. Quite dramatic lighting, lightening and then bucketfuls of rain!

Rocky Mountain Road Trip

Sarah Bourne — Tue, 01 Jun 2010 05:03:10 +0000

This was a very, very short trip – one day of driving, four days of working 12 hour shifts at the Calgary University Campus / Calgary Speed Skating Oval during the Canadian West Volleyball Open, then one day off in Banff followed by a 5am start back to Whistler. A mere 13 hour drive!

We were lucky with the weather in that at least we could see the Rocky Mountains. It was spectacular albeit not necessarily phenomenally photogenic.

Driving to Kamloops to shoot a wedding I stopped to take today’s photo at the viewpoint at Seton Lake. Actually a reservoir.
