The Chief

Stawamus Chief granite monolith in Squamish British Columbia with scattered clouds and dense green forest at the base

Stawamus Chief in Squamish. No filter needed.

Drove the Sea to Sky Highway and when this came into view I just pulled over. The Stawamus Chief does not need a good angle or nice light. It just sits there being massive and you feel small and honestly that is a good feeling sometimes. British Columbia has a way of putting things in perspective without saying a word.

Timing

Close view of a wrist wearing a white chronograph watch with colourful dials, seated inside a car.

A bright watch on an ordinary drive.

I bought it because it made me smile, which is reason enough. Objects like this are small arguments against taking everything too seriously. I kept catching it out of the corner of my eye at the wheel.
