About Me

Mel Torrie
I started photography in 2006 and have gravitated to wildlife (my favorite) and landscape photography. I shoot with a Canon SLR with L-series lenses. My wife is very understanding and patient with my addiction. I appreciate any comments you can offer as they help me improve greatly! Thanks.

The Getaway

Raeghn, Kaera, and I got together in Vancouver and stayed the weekend near Victoria in a little house in the middle of the forest right on the water. It was the only one I could find with a hot tub overlooking the bay. We probably spent about 8 hours in the tub. Kaera loved it too and we had some great quiet time to ponder life, path forward, dreams for the future, and contemplate the last two months. It was therapeutic and was the break we needed. The flower pictures are from Butchart Gardens which are amazing and a testament to what a woman with a mission can accomplish. We're now back in the refiner's fire with rough economic realities and kids busy with last weeks of school. Below Kaera and I are soaking in the hot tub overlooking the bay near Sooke on Vancouver Island (Fossil Bay Cabin)
Raeghn and Kaera having breakfast on our anniversary near the tide pools in Port Renfrew. A great little mom/pop restaurant with great food.
Raeghn at our anniversary dinner. Looking as beautiful as the day I met her. She is hot!
Raeghn on the Ferry trying to find something in our little Yaris car. As you can see in the window it was packed to the ceiling!
Kaera tired of my many pictures of the flowers at Butchart gardens.
