I Went Back

If you saw my last post you know I wanted to get that same picture, but with sunset light. I tried to get there in time for the sunset but I was just a little too late. I stuck around the area and shot some other photos I wanted to try and then when it …

Finding Inspiration

I haven’t been feeling very inspired to shoot photos in Kelowna these days. You can probably tell by the lack of Kelowna photos here on this blog. But I figured since I live here I better just force myself out the door and find inspiration or I’ll only take pictures when I go back to …

Another Night in Victoria

I love wondering around a city at night taking pictures. It’s honestly one of the most fun things for me. I don’t need anyone with me and often times I end up talking to people I wouldn’t otherwise meet. Night time in a city is can be so peaceful at times and then you turn …

Big City Lights

I love looking at Vancouver at night time. Whatever part of town I’m in I love the look of the city at night. The lights of the city make it shine and to me it shows of the life of the city. From street level to view points Vancouver is beautiful and this particular view …

Burnaby

I was just sitting around one night in Vancouver and didn’t have any plans. I thought rather than just sit around doing nothing I’d hop in my car and go look for a photo. I didn’t have any plans on where I was going, I was just going. As I was driving I decided an …

A Dark Night in Kelowna

I went out to shoot a few photos last night. I wanted to get out for blue hour, but sadly I missed it. I already had it in my head I was going to shoot photos so I just went out anyhow even though I knew it was going to be quite dark. It’s ok …

Richmond

Richmond has a lot of short buildings. The airport is in Richmond, so I am just going to assume that is the reason for that. I shot this photo from my Airbnb’s balcony when I was hanging out down there the other weekend. Thanks for stopping by, Rob

A Chilly Night in Chinatown

I shot this photo around 12:30am Victoria, BC. I always enjoy going out and shooting photos late at night. There’s usually minimal people around the city is quiet. Don’t get me wrong, I love shooting at 9pm too when there are people everywhere, but the two times are totally different experiences. When I lived in …

The Empress Hotel 35

This hotel in Victoria, British Columbia is outstanding! I love old buildings and this one does not disappoint. Normally I would have shot photos of this place a little wider than the 35mm I was shooting, but I only brought my Fujifilm x100T (with a fixed 35mm lens) with me to Victoria so 35 was …

Peaceful City View

There is something about city shots at night that I love. Everything looks so peaceful, but you know the city is alive. These are the types of views I can stare at for hours. I cant say I’ve ever lived in a house or an apartment with a real skyline view before, but I’d image …

Better at Night

Cities always look better at night. I shot this photo from the exact same spot as the last photo I posted. I took this picture with a Minolta 50mm f/1.4 and the last one was with a Nikon 105mm f/2.5. We were only staying at this place for a few days, but I kinda miss …

A Dark Night in Victoria

I was hanging out one night visiting with some family and around 10:30 everyone was off to bed. I was pretty tired, but I knew it was good opportunity for me to go out and shoot some photos. It was cold and snowy, so it wasn’t exactly a nice time to be out and about, …

Gate No.3 in Kelowna

When I shot this photo I was actually looking for a spot to get a shot of a couple buildings. This gate with all the weird metal behind it kind of caught my eye. The old Gate No.3 sign and the metal structure behind the fence work well together and I though it’d make a …
