The Whole Picture

A little sun never hurt anyone, originally uploaded by kennymatic.

A little bit of light to brighten up a rainy day in Metro Vancouver. Happy Bokeh Wednesday people.

Joe couldn’t help but notice that things seemed to get quite dark around him very suddenly. But he wasn’t about to let that interrupt his day at the park.

Notes: I admit I got lazy and just ended up using the robot from Robo Attack! for this vig. It was sitting around and I was determined to use it in some sort of scene.

This gang of four somehow got themselves into a hot spot.

Last week I spoke with Rosemary Poole of the Museum of Vancouver about my photography and usage of flickr and we had talked about how my photography seemed very focused on evening shots. Even before that conversation I had already noticed that I didn’t really seem to have any/many day time/light pictures of my own city.

I’ve been trying to expand my day time collection lately. So today’s False Creek Friday image features the south side of False Creek between the Granville and Burrard Street bridges during the day.

Rosemary was also kind enough to post a brief article on my photography on the Museum of Vancouver Blog.

Indy was just out for a leisurely photo walk when things got hairy quickly.

Sun was the theme last weekend in Metro Vancouver and by the sounds of the forecast it sounds like more of the same this weekend. Happy Friday everyone!

Looking past the water wall at Minter Gardens. HBW!

179/365 - Not good, originally uploaded by kennymatic.

As if things weren’t bad enough after being ridiculed and expunged after the Millenium Falcon incident, TK-421’s day was about to get a lot worse.

177/365 - The Gates of Hell, originally uploaded by kennymatic.

We once again made our annual visit out to Hell’s Gate for the Tourism Challenge.

Hell’s Gate was first described in Simon Fraser’s journal as an "awesome gorge". The canyon walls narrow at Hell’s Gate forcing the river through a narrow passage no wider than 35m. This results in incredible surges and whirpools of water which needs to been seen and heard in person to appreciate the power of the river.

A look at the Lions Gate bridge from below.

For those not from Metro Vancouver the Lions Gate connects downtown Vancouver with the North Shore municipalities of North and West Vancouver.
