Warm sunlight shining through a green canopy. Flowers in full bloom create a multi-coloured carpet. Wind glides through the branches of a newly blossomed cherry tree. Spring.

The Subject
One of my hobbies is collecting old photographs. I can browse for hours at antique stores looking through snapshots of family outings, birthdays, vacations, etc. Looking through the oldies, it seems to me that good photographs come from training your eye for a picture, not from using expensive equipment. Some of the most interesting photos are able to isolate their subject in a unique way from the cluttered and ever-shifting world that surrounds it. Below are some of the photos from my collection that I found particularly interesting. I hope you will enjoy them!
Why do these kids have a pet deer? Seriously…
If you look closely, you will notice that this car is actually stuck. I guess this guy is taking a break between pushing. This could be a soda commercial.
This is a very interesting photo. The shadow of the person taking the photo almost looks to be from another time.
Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual. – Edward Weston
Green World
Under the green canopy of the West Coast forest it is easy to forged that there is a city outside of its limits. Covered in moss, the forest sleeps — forever unchanging. People may come and marvel at its beauty and tranquility, but the forest doesn’t care. It has been here ages and for ages it will remain — long after you and I are gone.

Jazzy January
Weather in Vancouver is like an improv jazz fusion. It is unpredictable, unexpected and can be at times annoying. Lately, however, Vancouver has been blessed to get some snow. I say blessed because (as much as Vancouverites gripe about it) everything in this city becomes magnificent, spectacular and stunning. It is cold… oh god is it cold (that wet cold, which makes you feel like you will never get warm again), but if you brave it, you will be rewarded. Below are some of the photos that I took during the last couple of weeks. I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed the snow <3
