Photos I've taken In the Not-too-Distant Past

This photo was taken just a few days ago, at the trailhead off of Spanish Banks beach. It heads into the forest that surrounds the University of BC, home to crazy amounts of hiking/biking trails and the best beaches this city has to offer -- kilometres and kilometres of them.


This photo was taken on a lot soon to be home to one of Canada's wealthier people. Taken in West Vancouver, this photo's a pretty good example of why West Van (a city Northwest of Vancouver) is the wealthiest zipcode in Canada, our version of BelAir.


This is a parasailer off Spanish Banks Beach, across from the top photo of the trailhead. This city's an incredibly active place, with sports of all kinds happening everywhere the eye can see, but parasailing isn't something we see every day. I suspect it will be catching on. There were five guys doing it this day, a windy day last week.


The requisite artsy black-and-white shot. It's just a light on the ferry I rode to Gibsons last week.


This was taken a while ago, but I don't think I've ever posted it. I live off the Fraser River, BC's main tributary for barges. Standing on the Oak Street Bridge, it's always fun leaning over and watching the barges hauling dead trees destined for pulp mills. This was just snapped at a good time, and I love the geometrical look of it.
