Winter in Victoria???!!!

Great icicles! This is not what one expects from the tropical climes of BC. It’s a nice winter Photo of the Week, though.

“Took this picture of Ladysmith Marina (Vancouver Island BC) while walking the dock after a December Winter storm; ice formed on the water, snow on the boats and docks and foggy mist on the horizon.“

The POTW rules are simple. It has to be your shot, taken in and around boats or from a boat. Or anything else boat-ish. Or any great photo of docks, ports, winches, engine parts, people, and pets on boats, of course. You shoot it, we’ll include it.

Send your photos to cyonboard@kerrwil.com with POTW in the subject and we’ll get them into the publication soon! Thanks in advance.

…you understand now why you came this way.
