Fading Bloom

Fading Bloom                                                                       Vancouver, BC, Canada, 2009

Spring was a nice time to live in Canada.  Flowers blooming, long sunny days and relativelty clear weather.  I started to take more interest in photography around this time, and started to notice the little things in life.

Photography makes you stop and appreciate, and to me it makes you see things from a different perspective.

Twilight in Vancouver

Twilight in Vancouver was a magical time.  Whether you were walking through the city, strolling along False Creek, or taking a run over one of the many bridges in the Downtown area; it was magical.  Lights everywhere, making everything twinkle.

Burrard bridge was one of those things/places for me that sort of tied everything together.  After I got off work I would walk my sister to hers then run back after a coffee.  Burrard bridge was how you got to Granville Island.  Burrard Bridge was extremely photographic.

Coal Harbour

I spent 6 months in Vancouver, and took a lot of night shots.  This was taken after a night time stroll with my sister and her flatmate.

Granville Island Berries

 During my 6 month stay in Vancouver we visited Granville Island relatively frequently.  It has one of the most amazing public markets I've been to.  It has one hell of a choice of fresh fruit, vegies, meat, seafood, small goods and exotic foods like stuffed olives and cheeses.

I shot this photo on one of those trips and have loved since seeing it on the LCD screen of my new (at the time) DSLR.
