Christmas Morning, 2009

Best Wishes to everyone.

Jericho Woods

Sometimes I enjoy going back and working on a photo that I neglected earlier. It often means finding the format (black & white, tinting, toning, or some combination) to bring out the qualities that pressed me to take the picture in the first place.

Pitt River Revisited

I posted a picture of the Pitt River a while back. That was the east side of the bridge. This is the west. Don't forget to look behind you. There's usually something worth seeing.

Rogue Cloud

I found this cloud a while back and I keep returning to it, trying different effects. It may be my favorite shot of Vancouver; mostly water and sky. The sky usually darkens from the east here and clears from the west. And there are often clouds over the north shore mountains.

The Pond's Edge

November light.

Pond

The surface of a pond might be a little magical. You have to be careful not to spend too many hours staring into it ... or too few.

Granville Island Autumn

During my first few years in Vancouver I lived in the False Creek area and watched Granville Island grow up. I used to take my children for walks along the seawall. This morning I went for a short stroll there before having breakfast in the food court of the Granville Island market.
