June 16 2011 - trying to find the words...
 |
| the most touching words I read on the "Wall of Apologies" on the boarded up windows of the Bay |
 |
| sometimes a simple "thank you" is the most eloquent. 100's of volunteers showed up in the downtown core bright and early to help city crews with the clean up. This is the Vancouver we love. |

April 2 2011 - sticks and stones
You will find something far greater in the woods than you will find in books. Stones and trees will teach you that which you will never learn from masters.

Hiatus
I am going to have to take a break from this project for a few, maybe several, days. In the mean time, I may occasionally post an older photo. Bye for now. Peace out.

March 9 2011 - Harbinger of spring
 |
| the French call him Le Rouge-gorge |
...although, evidently, the European Robins are quite a bit smaller
(and their colouring is a little different, too).
A friend of mine was on a plane once seated next to a Frenchman,
and decided to ask him his impressions of Canada.
My friend was startled when the man gushed: "Your rouge-gorge are enormous!"
Not knowing what he was talking about, my buddy simply blushed and said, "why, thank you".

March 5 2011 - Grey
Sometimes spring skies can appear surprisingly cold. Winter skies out here are closer, more atmospheric (read fog and mist). As the sun gets a little stronger and tries to fight through the cloud, the skies look flinty to me. And the steel of the buildings glisten icily in the haze. A walk along the seawall is sometimes beautiful, sometimes brutally stark.
 |
| taken a couple of days ago immediately after a downpour mist completely obliterates the mountains a hazy sunlight reflects off water, steel and glass |
 |
| cement Skytrain tracks and grey sky |
Wanting to enjoy my walk without the encumbrance of a bulky camera,
all photos were taken with my iPhone
The first two photos were taken today.
