Weekly Photo Challenge: Lines and Patterns 2

Actually it is a photo of the inside of our round gazebo.  This will be it’s 4th winter as our extra room.  Victoria is in a rain forest so when it rains ( and that is a lot!)  we usually get wet from drips under this opening until today.  I had an idea to use binder clips to attach to the frame, pop up the metal clips under the canvas and it acts as a slopped barrier to all but the most stubborn of storms.

The Gorge is a salt water waterway that runs though the city.  This day the water was mirror like in it’s calmness and a stunning opportunity for photograph’s.
