Clover Point

Clover Point got its name when Hudson Bay Factor James Douglas landed there in 1842 and found himself knee-deep in red clover. This point is popular with kite fliers because there is almost always a strong wind. That was certainly the case when I took this photo. But, despite the warm days we've been having, Monday's wind was biting cold as well as strong and the only fliers were the gulls.

Nice job! Looks like a painting.

Another superb photo! One can almost feel the wind and the picture gives off a sense of bleakness. Nice catch on the gull.

It does have a paint feel. Wonderful vista.
