Wednesday’s Photos
Still Winter on Mount Scaia
Mount Scaia is a mountain in the Monashee Mountains in Canada. Over 2200 m high, not very far from where we live at 500 m, it is located in an undeveloped provincial wilderness park. Last Thursday, our son Michael took us in his heavy duty truck on an adventure trip over a rough dirt road. His plan was to take us to the top so we could delight in the fabulous mountain scenery and capture it on our cameras. But at 2000 m, the snow on the road was so deep that even driving a super truck, Michael could not proceed without the definite chance of getting stuck. Our disappointment, however, was softened by the sight of a fully grown giant grizzly standing on a snowbank. Before we could get our cameras ready, he had disappeared in the nearby bush. Farther down, we had a delicious picnic in the pure mountain air. I posted a few photos. Enjoy!





Today’s composition is called Dance Fantasia and goes well with the adventurous trip into the Monashee Mountains. As I am striving to improve my composing skills with Logic Pro, I welcome comments with constructive criticism.
It would have been great to get a photo of the grizzly, but it’s probably better that he disappeared into the bush.

Too bad about the snow and the bear. But those are lovely views.

Blocked by snow in mid-June: what a difference altitude and latitude make. That’s a happy little yellow flower.

Natural splendour is the right expression for this, Peter, and the photo of the two of you is simply great, those smiles … 🙂

As far as your compositions are concerned, I like them, hard to criticise 😉 I like the drums at the end of this one.

Seeing a grizzly would have been enough for me. A photo would have been great, but the scenery still was there for you, and it offered some glorious views.

No matter how many times I experience it, the difference in conditions between 2000 and 4000 meters never ceases to amaze me.
I’m glad the grizzly didn’t join your picnic!
