Ruckle's Farm on Saltspring Island

While on a visit to the fall fair on Saltspring Island, in September of 2012, we also drove by the farm at Ruckle Provincial Park. We weren't the only ones there, admiring the late summer yellowish browns. As I was walking about looking for good postcard shots, I noticed a group of water colour artists also trying their hand at capturing these unique colours.
