I’ve been trying to capture the essence of the weather we’ve been having—bright blue sky contrasted against the colours of the turning leaves; cool, crisp, true fall days which are so rare around here. I think the extra exposure to bright light is making everyone uncommonly happy. Is it just me or are people being more friendly lately?
Just a little picture of a shopping cart.

Looking west from the Main Street overpass leading to Crab Park gives a sense of what the city looked like a hundred or so years ago. The newer buildings behind are a strange contrast.
The beauty of Strathcona.
These were taken in Chinatown.
Some very creatively placed tagging on a hidden section of the contentious Point Grey foreshore.
I find the “The future lives here” banners hanging above these decrepit businesses in the Whalley area of Surrey to be kind of rude, actually.

I wrote an article about this farm equipment salvage company in Irma, Alberta. I wasn’t expecting the fields of looming, defunct machinery. The rusting colours against the blue sky was a feast for my camera lens.

All over the city there are houses that are slated for destruction. They sit abandoned, overgrown, messages from the past soon to be gone forever.
