checked out the flame this aft. not sure about the fence. guess it's a security issue. but.........??
some public art on display / granville st., downtown vancouver.
things are getting busy. i think i'll be sticking to stanley park.
a little downtown rush hour action - by the smoke shop.
well, out of the forest, and into the downtown. my shot of the day....
my shot of an 'eagles in the city' location in downtown vancouver..today.
i went to the beach today. 3 rd
beach that is, in stanley park. sat on a log and watched the float planes fly by.
i shot this portrait of a fisherman on the dock at granville island. bought a few lbs of shrimp / i'll let you know how they cook up. he was a nice guy/looked like he could have been a rigger in saskatchewan.
some folks thought my previous post was from chinatown, so i went today and shot some of the action. i like the guy walking in shadow/ bottom right of the first frame. it was a fab spring like day in the winter olympic city. can't image most people would mind.
vancouver aquarium
i really like these, and had fun shooting today. any guesses where i was? enjoy.
ok, just a little fun in the spirit of the impending winter olympics. i ran into a friend downtown this aft, so we did a quick portrait on the steps of the vancouver art gallery. i also had fun capturing a tourist shooting a self portrait in front of the olympic clock. starting to feel the oylmpic energy..
this is what i came up with today. a long stroll about chinatown, gastown, and downtown, and yaletown, and... well, just a lot of walking. i've shot those 'sails' before at canada place, so it may look like a retread, but it's fresh off the press. the light / balance has to be spot on, and tonight i waited until it was. my legs are a little sore, but i'm happy with these 2 shots... and seated, having a pop....
i like this one / fella heading home to false creek late in the day. click to enlarge /
with the warm, sunny weather this afternoon, you could just feel this bud getting ready to burst into bloom
low tide in English bay at the south entrance to Stanley park.
no Olympic snow in the forecast...
weather has been swell the last 3 weeks or so. olympic types would like some snow, however this suits me fine. nice sailing day. or shall i say, nice day to photograph some sailing.....
"sail with every wind. explore, discover". vancouver bc.
i received a message from a fellow flat lander today / said she was checking out my blog and was inspired (and she's a photographer to boot). that kinda inspired me, so i got out and had a look around. lots of fun shooting this location in english bay for an hour or two. i was thinking black & white all the way, but kinda like the colour version. so..... to get the conversation started / let me know your preference. thxs. !
i had another look at yesterdays take from high in stanley park. this is my pick.
a nice day to strap on the boots, and hit the trail up to prospect point in stanley park. luckily, it's down hill all the way home. i like the results / sticking with the duo tone (B&W), to shake my brain up a bit...
my take on one of the newest buildings in yaletown / downtown vancouver. she's a beauty. dentist money a must for occupancy...
big time soaker
this week on the west coast. have to keep the camera pointing down, so this is how i saw the drift wood on a beach at stanley park. low, diffuse light makes for vibrant colours.....
a glimpse of stanley park
i came across this today. anybody know what it is?? or is it obvious?
my plan for the day was to hit the downtown.. again. i geared up, walked a block or two, and realized this was the nicest winter day i have ever spent in vancouver. so who needs the crowds? i went back home, put on the shorts, grabbed a pop, and spent the afternoon at the beach/ one block from my happy home / at english bay. oh... and i had my camera with me as well (would like to leave that at home more often).

i took a long walk thru stanley park today. forest, mountains, and the ocean. not a bad 3 some....
