I love images that have interior frames. This image is from the Chinese Garden in Vancouver. It was not a bright afternoon and I did not have a tripod with me to get the smaller aperture/slower shutter speed and larger depth of field I would have preferred for the colour film shot. I took the black and white retro-styled image with my iPhone and the Hipstamatic app.

I liked this structure in Vancouver; it seemed to go with the cloudy/drizzly day.

For my second Stanley Park image I go to the shore; my eyes were instantly drawn to this magnificent jumble

I loved the wood grain on the various pieces of Haida art at the Museum of Anthropology at UBC in Vancouver.

Vancouver in November is definitely off-season. I wouldn’t call the feeling a malaise, just a sense that the party is over.

We did not see a lot of the sun in Vancouver when we were out there, but when it did sort of peek out from time to time it was lovely.

Another image of the Chinese Garden in Vancouver, this time in black and white. As mentioned in yesterday’s post it was getting dark quickly, and the Hasselblad is not known for being hand-holdable at slow speeds.

For various reasons I am behind in posting recently, and it likely won’t get consistently better for a couple of weeks, but at least I can post something today. This image is from our recent trip to Vancouver, from Granville Island.
