We are constantly looking for ways to help conserve our environment. A lot of what we do is contributing much needed funds to fantastic organisations based right here in the Salish Sea. For a few years now we’ve adopted the J17 Matriline, this financial contribution fuels critical research that protects endangered species such as our beloved Southern Residents. They are also working to prevent pollution from harming marine life, through the Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup and Ocean Wise’s new Plastic Reduction Program. They also protect marine habitats and create ocean-based solutions to fight climate change, by growing and restoring Kelp forest. If you want to get involved and help protect the ocean that we love, why not join us in adopting a matriline from Ocean wise. A great gift for you or a loved one! 📸: Picture of J17 and her calf J53, taken in 2016 by Rachael Merrett @tourismvictoriabc @hellobc @tourismvancouverisland @pacificwhalewatch @explorecanada #ExperienceTheWild #britishcolumbia #explorebc #beautifulbc #explorevictoria #explorecanada #hellobc #explorevancouverisland #BCtourism #orcaspirit

Meet Chelsea! 👋 An Uplands member since 2016, she can be spotted out on the course or at the practice area almost every day as she trains to compete this year at the BC Juniors, defending her titles at BC Amateur, Canadian Juniors, Canadian Amateur, and PNGA Amateur. Among these accolades, we couldn't resist to mention she finished with a 66 at last year's Upland's Junior Club Championship, which earned her the women's course record! This powerhouse is inspired by Brooke Henderson, saying she is "just an incredible Canadian golfer", and it would appear she is well on her way to becoming a star in her own right. 🏆 Drop her a 🍀 to wish her luck this season before she jets off to the University of New Mexico for school in August! #MembersOfUplands #UplandsGolfClub

Today's break even bottle is @basilhayden Red Wine Finished Kentucky Bourbon. This special release is blend of the classic Basil Hayden high-rye mash bill and bourbon partially aged in Californian red wine casks. It's ripe with cherries and dried fruit, while also delivering characteristic bourbon flavours of vanilla and charred oak. Perfectly balanced, this bourbon is layered and complex, yet approachable and inviting with a warm and crisp, delicate mouthfeel. 🥃 #yyj #tastingvictoria #explorevictoria #ediblevanisle #bccraftbeer #victoriabc #yyjeats #yyjrestaurants #vancouverislandeats #yyjfood #yyjfoodies #yyjeatshere #vicfood #yyjdrinks #localcraftbeer #victoriabuzz #yyjtakeout #vanisle #cheers #bartspub

Day3 | Part 1 On the third day, we opted to drive a bit farther from our Airbnb and explore a location near the coast. I chose to visit East Sooke Regional Park, anticipating a potentially stunning sunset. We embarked on a short walk and discovered some intriguing compositions along the way. By the way, one of those photos was captured using long exposure techniques.

Die Zwölf Apostel in Australien sind ein atemberaubendes Naturschauspiel, das sich entlang der malerischen Great Ocean Road erstreckt. Diese majestätischen Kalksteinfelsen, die aus dem türkisfarbenen Meer herausragen, bieten einen unvergesslichen Anblick und sind ein Höhepunkt für jeden Urlauber. Die kraftvolle Brandung, die an den Felsen bricht, zusammen mit dem klaren Himmel und der leichten Bewölkung am Horizont, schafft eine Atmosphäre von Ruhe und Erhabenheit. Besonders bei Sonnenuntergang, wenn die Felsen in warmen Farbtönen leuchten, wird die Schönheit dieses Ortes unterstrichen. Ein Urlaub hier ist eine Gelegenheit, die natürliche Pracht Australiens zu erleben und mit nach Hause zu nehmen – ein echtes Paradies für Fotografen und Naturliebhaber. 🇦🇺🦘 #TwelveApostles #GreatOceanRoad #AustraliaWonders #NaturePhotography #OceanViews #TravelAustralia #CoastalBeauty #SunsetMagic #LimestoneCoast #AussieAdventure #Seascape #NaturalMonuments #VictoriaViews #DownUnder #ApostlesSunset #SouthernOcean #RockFormations #ExploreVictoria #AustralianLandscapes #EpicScenery

Local @deborahkleinartist infuses an ethereal quality into her work weaving tales of enchantment. The notion of “looking over the overlooked” is a powerful concept, and using moths as a metaphor is particularly poignant. Often overshadowed by the more flamboyant butterflies, moths possess their own quiet beauty and serve as a reminder of the hidden wonders that exist in the world. These hidden wonders will shine bright and flutter across Cobb's Corner at White Night Ballarat. 'Decorated Women' is one of the incredible projections in the White Night Ballarat program. Be sure to come and see it for yourself on 1 June 2024.

What a very busy weekend at our two Macedon garden openings @cadellaparkevents and @bolobek. Macedon was alive with garden lovers who were also there to celebrate the Macedon Ranges Autumn Festival. The first four pics were taken at Cadella Park and you can see the gorgeous autumn colours in this historic garden that we opened for the very first time. Pictured is Simon Rickard happily pictured with our volunteers. Simon gave a talk on the garden each day and there were so many extra activities that made this garden sparkle in the lovely autumn weather including a large range of plant stalls, local produce, art and craft and live music. We have opened Bolobek many, many times before but once again this garden was a delight. It certainly was in its autumn glory and again you can see our smiling volunteers at the front entrance! We have one more garden opening this weekend in Euroa, Lakithi, which will also be ablaze with autumn colour. Here you can enjoy lush lawns, established trees and colourful beds enclosed by hedges and stone walls in the Strathbogie Ranges. #ogv #opengardensvictoria #ogvgardenopenings #autumngardenopenings #victoriagardenopenings #macedongardens #macedongardenopenings @bolobek #daylesfordmacedonlife #escapeandrejuvenate #ridedaylesfordmacedonranges #daylesfordmacedonranges #visitvictoria #visitmelbourne #seevictoria #explorevictoria #thisisvictoria @simon_rickard

Welcome back Tyrone! 🌞 Meet the Artist: @uncededcreations Tyrone Elliott, Ancestral name Tiwuxiwulh, is a Cedar bark weaver from Snuneymuxw' and Quw'utsun. He has resided on Lekwungen territory for the past 3 years. Taught to weave by his Mother, Violet Elliott, from a very young age, Tyrone has over 20 years working with Cedar bark and other natural materials. He is currently reclaiming his language, Hul'q'umi'num, and incorporating it into his Work as he learns. Much of the Teachings that Tyrone has incorporated into his life have been derived from Cedar weaving, harvesting and other land-based Teachings. In co-facilitating with his Mother, and eventually facilitating his own workshops, Tyrone's aim has been to impart a loving connection with Cedar and the land, and also to convey how Indigenous Laws derive and correlate with and from land based Teaching such as Cedar weaving. Tyrone creates the most beautiful cedar bark woven baskets, bags, earrings and bracelets. Come see these gorgeous works of art at the 26th Indigenous Pop Up Shop YYJ Saturday May 18th 1110 Hillside Ave 10-3 #cedar #weaver #cedarbark #baskets #bracelets #earrings #handmade #indigenous #westcoast #medicine #indigenousart #indigenouspopupshopyyj #shoplocalartistsyyj #yyjevents #yyj #victoria_buzz #explorevictoria @whatsgoodyyj @victoria_buzz @tourismvictoriabc

April 4, morning tour, 4 Ever Wild: This is the blowhole view of a young humpback whale known as Sakura, the 2022 calf of a whale known as Scissorhands (BCY0876). Sakura was named by students from Centre Mountain Lellum School in Victoria, who encountered him or her during one of our education tours in spring 2023! Sakura is a character from the Naruto manga series, and also means cherry blossom—the national flower of Japan, representing renewal and optimism. Great choice, kids!

I had the pleasure of tattooing one of my good friends, Max, the other day, and I was so excited that he wanted this little chickadee flash. Max is super tall and often referred to as a gentle giant, so tattooing a cute chubby bird for him was giving me hard-core Android 16 vibes. I love how this turned out and seriously appreciate being able to put these flash pieces on skin, where they belong! Thanks again, Max! #chickadee #chickadeetattoo #cutebirdtattoo #birdbranch #birdtattoo #birdbranchtattoo #naturetattoos #wildlifetattoo #yyjtattoos #vancouverisland #stephmosstattoos #flythecagetattoos #fernwoodbc #fernwoodtattoos #blackandgreytattoos #victoriabctattoos #femmetattooer #victoriabc #explorevictoria #vancouverislandtattoos #canadiantattooartist #bcartist #tattoooftheday #tattooedfolks #gentlegiant #android16

// Prevention is better than Cure // Did you know that regular massage treatment can help prevent injury? Prevention and maintenance is often not the way we approach our health. We tend to wait for an issue to compound until we can no longer ignore our pain If you have pain more than a week, it’s time to investigate. If you have pain more than 12 weeks, it is categorised as chronic pain. Unfortunately the longer a condition is left untreated, the longer it will take to heal. So don’t wait for that crisis point to occur! So how often should you book in for a massage?? This is a rough guideline to follow: - ➡️ Currently in pain - every 1-2 weeks for 3-8 sessions (depending on how chronic & complex) ➡️ High stress job – every 3-4 weeks ongoing ➡️ Play sports or do regular intense exercise - every 3-4 weeks ongoing ➡️ Regular preventative maintenance - every 4-6 weeks ongoing If you would like to start adding regular massage treatment into your selfcare routine to keep your body strong and prevent injury, give us a call! Our experienced Myotherapist Daniel is available for Remedial Massage and Myotherapy treatments on Monday & Friday. 🙌💆 #remedialmassage #myotherapy #triggerpoints #myofascialrelease #health #injuryrehabilitation #deeptissuemassage #love #selfcare #macedon #wallan #woodend #onehouroutofmelbourne #gisborne #seevictoria #visitvictoria #kyneton #lancefield #kilmore #discovervictoria #romsey #explorevictoria #macedonranges #romsey_lancefield_region #darraweitguim #pyalong
