If you’re gonna live downtown in a big city, living by a park would be ideal. This is part of David Lam Park in Vancouver and it’s bigger than it looks in this picture. Anyhow, I’ve lived in a lot of apartments in my life, but never across the street from a park like this. …

A Look Down Kingsway
I have always appreciated the view of the city while driving down this stretch of Kingsway in East Vancouver. I was driving down the street last weekend I decided to pull over and shoot a photo of the scene. I spent a lot of my childhood running around this part of the city and it …
I See You
Street photography can be so fun! I actually love this picture and the process of shooting the photo was so rewarding. I was driving down the street and saw all the leaves on the ground sounded by the tress with the light hitting the sidewalk just perfectly. So I pulled over and grabbed my camera …
A Random Walkway
Just a random walkway in Victoria, BC. I was just walking by and though all the brick looked cool. Plus it was nice bonus that some people were walking towards me. I find a picture like this is always better then there are some people in it. Next time I am in Victoria I am …
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 …
Magic Mike
This is a friend of mine, Mike. I actually met mike randomly one day in a store. I couldn’t help but notice he was carrying a Leica M9. He had this magic tape over the Leica logos on his camera, so it’s surprising I was able to even spot the camera 🤪. Being intrigued by …
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 …
No.3 Road in Richmond
I spent last weekend Vancouver. There was two orders of business going on. 1. we were bringing puppy Cliff to his new family (whom met us in Vancouver from the Island). And 2. I was looking for car to replace my VW Jetta that my insurance company wrote off. Sadly I wasn’t able to find …
The Missing Puppy Pictures!
On January 6th I posted a story about our road trip to Victoria to drop off some puppies. See that post here. There was actually a bunch of pictures that went with that story. I just noticed that the pictures never got published with the story! WordPress has been a little weird for me these …
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, …
So much snow!
My family and I were just living it up in Victoria for a visit recently. While they did have an unusual amount of snow in Victoria, it was nothing compared to what was waiting for us back in Kelowna. The snow is everywhere! I had the shovel more than one person off the side of …
Vintage Snowman
My wife bought this awesome vintage snowman decoration for our house. I think it was supposed to just sit on your lawn or something, but I thought it would look better on our fence, so that’s where I put it. I love the smiling face of the snow man so I got a little closer …
