Some Views for our Visitor from Denmark

From See Ya Later Ranch Winery

Osoyoos( ="The Land Between" ) Population 5000; from Highway Three

Mountain Ladyslipper
Here are some views our visitor from Denmark was impressed with. The first one looking from the winery towards Skaha Lake, Penticton, and the distant Okanagan Lake, is one of our favorites. The second one is from halfway up a long climbing hill on the West of Osoyoos, looking back, and is a famous viewpoint in the area. The last photo is of a pretty plant Hanne discovered whilst we were walking in Lee Creek Park, Naramata. Apparently if you try and grow this yourself, it takes fifteen years to produce a flower!

Breathtakingly beautiful! The two panoramas are outstanding. You live surrounded by such magnificence! The flower is so lovely and unusual.

Hello Michael and Hanne

I have just found you, and taken a look at your stunning landscape photographs. I'm sure that these views couldn't fail to impress a visitor from such a flat country as Denmark.

I have signed-up to follow your future posts.
