beach

i'm very happy with this image. i went to stanley park this aft/eve., with no particular subject in mind. as the sun set, i found myself on the beach. the tide was coming in, and washing over shells in the sand... i will definitely post more of tonight's shoot in a gallery. stay tuned....

hope

tie game

another winter olympic 2010 moment.

winter olympic photos 2010

i had a second look at my shots from super sid sunday on granville st. crazy. not sure this doesn't belong in the category of 'enough already', but i thought i'd throw them out there anyway.

maybe i'll put all shots in a gallery, and ask people to vote for their favorite one??

olympic kiss

i had to be quick to get this one. my camera was waist high. happened in a split second (one frame-easy edit).
my winter olympic photo 2110.

a few for the road

a few more for the record. 2010 winter olympic photos. so long.
(click on that first shot/there's where i had just escaped from).

what a day

wow, what a day. i'll throw these images out there / i took a plenty... but i'll create a gallery of the keepers after things sink in. right now i'll just catch my breath..... stay tuned.

gastown, vancouver bc

cool little place in gastown called alibi. just off the beaten path of olympic madness. they even have some US coin in the tip jar....

faces of the games

stop...go...stop

the olympic cauldron location on vancouver's waterfront......from a different perspective. it's crowded down there... is there an app for that?

my winter olympic photo blog

enjoyed spending some time photographing this performer on granville street. he brought smiles to the winter olympic crowd.

vancouver winter olympic fans

this is my favorite shot of the 450 or so i took today. the walking and shooting is fun, it's the editing that will kill ya... i have a few more keepers, check in tomorrow. i guess its fitting to post a shot of the girls/they're the ones that are winning all the gold medals. congratulation's.

2 for 1

i took a break today/this from last night. the sculpture is called WE,2008. by Jaume Piensa of Spain. i was able to capture it framed by my sisters laser show..... well i think she may have designed it........very interesting. guessing it's about 12ft tall. so.. two works of art for the price of one. the following is from the biennale web site. enjoy.

'This sculpture celebrates Vancouver’s linguistic and cultural diversity by incorporating multiple alphabets, (Latin, Greek, Russian Cyrillic, Hebrew, Hindi, Japanese, Arabic, Chinese) in an all embracing womb-like human form. Plensa is widely acclaimed for his Public Art installations, having created this work specifically for the Vancouver Biennale.

my light show in false creek

since my sister, and some friends have been designing their own laser light shows, i thought i'd do one myself. one shot, all in camera.

olympic winter sailing

a tale of 2 ships.. or 2 tales/one ship. i went for a run on the seawall. came across a wonderful impromptu inukshuk-rock balancing piece of art. went home to get my gear to take a shot before the tide wiped it out. did a quick check on the email, and there was a message, inviting me to go for a sail (the lumsden crew). i knew i couldn't get there on time, but thought they might be sailing past my shoot location. so that's it, their boat in the background. i like the shot - west coast style / art,sea,sailing,mountains.

second shot. same deal, i screwed up and missed another invite to go for a sail with the lumsden crew. i was walking home on the seawall, and thought just by chance.. i might see them coming in. and that's their boat, the panacea.(hope i have the name right). i'm thinking.. what are the chances.. given the thousands of people in the city for the games, and all the boats on the water, i'd see that one, twice. cool......... oh, and i did get on board last night for some wonderful oysters and beer. thxs to the colhouns, judy, blair.. (judy, watch your head).

busy place... on granville st, downtown vancouver.
