Down by the Beach

I didn’t spend a ton of time at the beach while I was in Playa Del Carmen. I think I had 2 real beach days, and few beach walks. Like these guys, I think I prefer to be near the beach and looking at it rather than right on it getting my shoes full of …

OLD 149 House

This old house caught my eye when I was walking by. The house is on a relatively busy street downtown in Playa Del Carmen so it looked a little out of place. I am assuming it’s quite an old house. The roof is so strange, but it works. I really love all the vines on …

Motorcycle Dog

I just barely got this picture. These two were burning by and as soon as I noticed the dog my camera went flying up to my face! The funny thing is the dog was looking right at me when I shot the photo. I’m so happy the photo worked out how it did. It seems …

This Street at Night

This street is a pedestrian only street and day or night it is just packed with people. This one moment is one of the quieter moments I was able to get a picture. In fact I think this is about as quiet as I ever saw it. But trust me, this moment was just a …

The Tourists

You see a lot of tourist grouped together like this in Mexico. Whenever I see them I always wonder what the occasion for the trip is, what they are doing and who they are to each other and where are they from? It’s none of my business but these are questions that just pop into …

Suitcase Street

Playa del Carmen is the only place I have experienced that you often see people walking around the busiest streets with suitcases. Every time I’ve been to Playa del Carmen it has always stood out to me that people would be walking around with suitcases in the busiest tourists areas. I guess it makes sense …

Life Around The Mural

I was walking around downtown yesterday looking for a photo. I saw this Tiger and Dragon mural and thought it would look good in a street shot. I shot relatively low so I could get more of the buildings across the street into the shot. The buildings across the street are kind of dull in …

People on the Pier

Ok this is the last photo I’ll be sharing from my evening on the pier the other day. I actually really like this picture because there is so much life happening in the picture. I don’t know what was going on with these people, but we were all there on the pier for one beautiful …

Sunset on the Pier

I saw the sunset starting to happen from my house last night. I thought about if I should go or not for about 5 minutes and then grabbed my camera and ran out the door. Pandosy Water Front Park is the closest place to my house by the water that’s good for photos. So I …

I love these streets

I have always loved tree covered streets for as long as I can remember. There is just something so warm and inviting to streets like this. There is a draw to these streets that will make me want to walk down the street even if I’m not going in that direction. The tree canopy is …

Boats and Buildings

There is so much to see and do in Vancouver. Yet I always find myself back on Granville Island among the boats and buildings. Even if I’m just starting my day out, a lot of the time I’ll just park my car here and go. Which is exactly I was doing this day. Actually right …

I like the Street

I shot this photo back in December. This spot on Bernard street is so perfect for street photos. There are lots of lights and the old Paramount sign down the street makes for an interesting background whether it’s blurry or sharp. I like Blurry, so there ya go haha. Maybe I’ll go shoot a sharp …

Why Not?

Why can’t the streets of my city just look like this? I love the this street so much. Cobble stone, colourful flags and lights are a pretty wicked combo. It all comes together so nicely for pictures and it’s just a nice feeling walking down the street at night when it’s all lit up like …
