A note of appreciation from both of us to all of you who have visited our pictures, made us contacts/friends/family, offered feedback for our many pictures, and favourited our pictures: We *love* having you as our friends and being part of our Flickr family! Your comments and interest are always welcome, so please feel free to send us Flickr mail whenever you'd like to connect.

We are a Canadian (he) and American (she) couple in our 60s and 50s, currently residing in the San Francisco Bay area. He is a career academic research administrator and counselor (30 years with PhD, website at grad-mentor.com), dual citizen of the U.S. and Canada. Originally from the U.S. east coast but residing mostly on the U.S. and Canadian west coast since 1980, he is terribly homesick to retire in his former hometown of Victoria on Vancouver Island, British Columbia Canada. She is a gifted counselor and Master's in Social Work degree candidate who is performing wonderful healing work in the Bay area.

We have lived together since 2006, and we were married in December 2019. In August 2021 we celebrated 15 years since our first in-person meeting and we have many tribute pictures.

We have devoted our spirits to capturing all kinds of beauty in the natural world around us. Our pictures reflect our many travels along the U.S. and Canadian west coast, including British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, and California. We have been sharing our pictures on Flickr since 2006. Most of our images are outdoor landscapes, but we've also dabbled with sensual photography over the years and now and then, we share some of our (tasteful) personal favourites.
