I was wondering around downtown the other day and found myself walking by the bus stop. The bus stop is such an interesting place. There is always such an eclectic mix of people there. I didn’t go there thinking of any type of photo in particular, I just thought there might be something. When I …

Whoops, Here I Am
Sorry, I kind of fell off the planet there for a couple days. The truth is I hadn’t been out shooting photos for the last few days and I didn’t feel like posting any oldies haha. Anyhow, I went for a walk yesterday and shot a couple photos. The weather looks to be good for …
Hike for a view
I went for a hike on Friday morning and shot this photo. I thought 300mm would be long enough, but to be honest I think I needed a little more reach. Sadly the only 400mm lens I have is absolutely massive and there is no way I’m dragging that monstrosity up a mountain haha. With …
See you later Green
I don’t think I’ll be seeing green grass around here for a while. It’s snowing outside right now as I write this and the snow is actually sticking. According to the forecast it looks like we are creeping into the full swing of winter weather. I’ve never been too keen on going out in the …
Building Buildings
There is no shortage of construction going on around Kelowna. Plenty of new buildings going up downtown and around the city. 3 new buildings just in this one party alone. Some of the old timers don’t seem to like it, but as far as I’m concerned the more the better. Kelowna is small and there …
Bright Boardwalk
This boardwalk has so many lights! I used to go walk down here more often, but it’s actually pretty short, so I don’t go down here much anymore. I do like the way it looks at night though. Any boardwalk with lots of lights looks so good to me. This picture might be better on …
Happy New Year 2024!
Can you believe it’s 2024?! Holy macoral it’s the future! haha. Kelowna put on a fireworks show downtown called the New York New Years Eve Fireworks show. I didn’t understand why they called it that at first, but I guess it’s because the show happens here (in the west) at 9pm and in New York …
The Many Lights
There are so many different lights going on in this picture. The street lights on the street and in the park by the lake and then this really bright section in the middle. You can see the light just pouring out of the middle layer of the photo. I was tempted to tone that down, …
How is it Christmas Eve?
It is hard to believe it is Christmas Eve! This holiday season just zipped by so fast for me. All month I have been well aware that Christmas was fast approaching, but for some reason it just has not really seemed to sink in for me. I will be attending a large Christmas dinner on …
Early Night Downtown
I was downtown last night and I knew this view was coming my way, so I brought my camera along. I love views like this at night. I mean a view like this is great in the day time too, but at night it’s especially beautiful to me. I also think this type of city …
Colourful Lake
I went out last night with a 70-200 and nothing else. It’s probably a good thing too because if I had another longer lens, I surely would have used it and I think that would have been a mistake. For this particular photo with all the colourful lights reflecting off the lake I think 200mm …
Bench with a View
I was walking through City Park as one does in Kelowna. It’s a nice view of the city on the north side of the park. There are these benches a long the promenade and people are always there enjoying the view. This picture is super random as I could have shot any one of the …
Just a bit of Sunset
The sunsets are not always amazing, but they are always beautiful, well to me at least. I dunno why, but sunsets over a city just do it for me. I like big cities and big city views. This view has a lot going on because the foreground takes up so much of the space, but …
