  1. In late June, #BritishColumbia & #GovernmentOfCanada announced that they’ve helped non-profit foundations & trusts buy 8 parcels of land from private owners for #OldGrowth #Conservation, largely on and around #VancouverIsland.

    However, all but one of the #forests included in this purchase announcement do not contain old-growth #trees, defined by the #BCgovernment as 250-year-old #CoastalForests & 140-year-old forests in parts of the #BCInterior. Instead, 7 of 8 purchased properties contain what’s called “recruitment” old-growth — that is, forests that have been #logged.

    Photos taken by members of #environmental organization #AncientForestAlliance #AFA earlier this month show massive old-growth trees being logged by #BCTimberSales, #BCNDP’s own #logging agency, in the Nahmint Valley on Vancouver Island. Some of these trees are more than 500 yrs old, according to the organization.

  6. Sorting through some of my #PastWork / #Photography #archived shots.

    Found some from #skateboarding in #VicWest . These are my shots of #TJWatt before he cut off the dreads hair; when he was an avid #skateboarder in #VictoriaBC .

    Most folks recognize clean cut TJ; who has taken some of the most recognizable old growth tree photos in BC & cofounder of #AncientForestAlliance on #VancouverIsland .
