  1. My #PhotoArt tribute to #BigLonelyDoug - one of the biggest #DouglasFir #trees in the world.

    Learn more about this lonely #OldGrowth tree:
    "It has the third highest tree score and third widest diameter of any known Douglas-fir in Canada, following the Red Creek Fir in the nearby San Juan Valley and the Bonin Giant in the Coquitlam River watershed in British Columbia's Lower Mainland"

  2. In the distance, the 100-year forest. In the foreground, what’s left when a strip of that forest is felled, yarded, hauled, and most of what’s left is heaped into 4-metre high piles. All of that happened less than 12 months ago. In the next season the forest’s renewal will become evident. In the meantime, there’s a scar. And my memories of stillness, deer, bear, and big Douglas Firs.

  3. A year ago there was a narrow but beautiful and well-grown strip of second-growth Douglas Fir. 100+ year old trees. When they’re gone, they’re gone.
    I miss that those trees.

    A magical tribute to Canada's #GnarliestTree - in #AvatarGrove in #PortRenfrew.

    We fought hard to save the ancient trees & their life-sustaining wild ecosystems, to get Avatar Grove area protected & turned into a public park. It was previously on the corporate deforestation list prior to the hard grassroots fight to save this area of Port Renfrew, where old growth forests were rapidly dwindling due to colonial capitalist style of short-term greedy gains & putting nature last. Nature should be first.

  5. #MonochromeMonday

    Posting some of my older photos because I've been stuck at home for a bit & I have a ton of old photo memories.

    This is from 2021. I went up for frontlines arrestees court support in #Nanaimo. Pictured here with sister-friend Ojistoh, Grandma Losa, Chiykotin & sister-friend Raven(Wolf) in front of Nanaimo courthouse.
