Day Twenty-Seven: pictures

I don't know if you've noticed, but I appear to be taking this "every day" thing pretty loosely right now. I keep forgetting to be creative, and then sometimes realizing I was indeed creative after all accidentally, and sometimes not. I remembered that when I was in Whistler I really wanted to make soap, so I am going to investigate how to do so and maybe churn out something genuinely creative in the next three days... we'll see.

Anyway. For today, I have some pictures that I took! I have all these friends who are super good at taking pictures and are making businesses out of it, but don't go expecting anything Polly Photographer about these ones. My parents and I were in Sechelt for the day, and my dad was gallivanting around the rocks with my dog and I was left with the camera for safekeeping. It's a lot more fun to take pictures with a giant camera that makes the old-fashioned click-click sound when you press the button, so I took a bunch of pictures because I liked the sound. These ones are the best.

This one is my favourite. There were arbutus trees everywhere, and I love arbutus trees. They are so smooth! Plus I learned from an informational sign that sometimes arbutus trees look just like regular trees with rough bark, and then they shed their winter skin and become smooth and awesome. Like ninja snake trees!

These are arbutus trees mid-shed. Camouflage bark is gone, next step: peel.

There were a million purple starfish everywhere!

The ocean was so sparkly.

Day Twenty-Seven Highlights: cameras that sound old, arbutus trees.

Day Twenty-Seven Lowlights: nothing, really. It was pretty awesome.

Tomorrow: soap? I don't know. I'll try, though - I promise.
