Trees and grass in the morning light.
I'm sorry that the shot is crooked.
| University of Victoria's campus is inhabited by countless tame rabbits.
I love the resolution on my new camera. In the full-sized image you can
see every individual strand of fur.

| A taupe bunny. Inquisitive.
| A gray bunny.
| Hiding in the shade.
| This bunny matches the sidewalk.

|
|
|
| The elusive black bunny.
| Look closely: a black bunny guards each side of this set of benches.
(They're camouflaged; you may have to view the full-sized image to see
them.) The scene reminds me of those buildings with statues guarding
each side of the entrance.

| Wildflowers at Malahat Summit.
| Malahat Summit's view of a large forest.
| | Throughout the day, we saw wildflowers growing everywhere, even on these
rocks by Malahat Summit.

| At an overlook a bit farther north, there's an expansive vista of water.
| A picture that focuses on the town, if it can be called that, at the
water's edge.
| A multi-layered image: water (with island), land, water, land, water, land.
| Although I don't like how I look in this picture, I'm keeping it because
of the background.
|
|
|
| A better picture of me, though I'm still not a fan of it.

| Blue Grouse Winery

|
| Blue
Grouse's vineyards.
| These flowers make me think Blue Grouse should expand into another market.
| The wine tasting list for white wines. My tasting notes:
- Muller-Thurgau: very dry.
- Ortega: dry, peachy.
- Pinot Gris: orange, more body.
| The wine tasting list for red wines. My tasting notes:
- Pinot Noir: pretty good for a noir. cherry.
- Black Muscat: lychee smell. Tastes odd.

| The winery's cat lies on the gravel.
| Ah, so comfortable.
| Di Yin plays with it.
| Scratching.
|
|
|
|
|
Di Yin is pleased that the cat is so friendly.
By the way, I'm
sorry that I took these photographs at such a low resolution. I didn't
realize my camera was still set like that after the wine tasting.
| | The cat also likes lounging in the grass.
Above it are yet more of
the winery's flowers.

| Wild grasses on a road near the winery.
| Ditto.
| A narrow road dominated by tall trees.
These looked better while driving.
