A collection of photos from the album "Urban Fare"

Cambie Bridge, Vancouver, BC

Victoria, BC

Exploring this industrial area on a foggy evening, I discovered a great little cafe to ward off the cold ~ Hudson Street Vancouver, BC

From my sky train series ~ the overhead rumble and indirect visual of the train gave me a very strong sense of power. The sky was just fading to twilight, with those heavy clouds behind me now.

The transit station borders the Fraser River in Vancouver

Sunday, this part of Vancouver is pretty quiet. I scrambled over a broken frost fence into a large industrial wasteland. Lots of huge puddles collected from the recent rainfall and the wonderful skies made for some great opportunities.

Grouse Mountain on the very left and the Lions centre ~ view from Little Mountain, Vancouver, BC

Skytrain crossing between Richmond and Vancouver, BC - Had my tripod at a very awkward position to avoid a fence on the ground. It was so high, I could just barely see the image on my tip toes through the live view. lol! the disadvantage of being short :)

Richmond, BC - an old warehouse and dock on the Fraser River ~ the lights of Vancouver - Airport Square across the water

Early evening light, and a passing vehicle during my exposure

Such strange parking signs, but I guess anything goes when promoting for a casino. Richmond, BC, Canada

Always I am overwhelmed by clouds and architecture as elements. This seemed like the wings of an avenging angel reaching out to the skyscaper. I was hoping for it to move a bit closer, but it broke up as it moved across the sky. The b&w conversion and subsequent tinting was done in camera raw. And Steve, I could have used your wide angle here!

Its a long time since I've seen such a vibrant pink, just felt like the 60's again - and the bus sign matches almost perfectly

Seeing this fabulous sunset glinting on the windows from afar, I desperately ran with all my gear and was only able to make a couple of images before the moment slipped away.

Young family waiting for the Sea bus - Granville Island, Vancouver, BC, Canada
The way the timeless family roles were playing out on this scene really appealed to me.

From my Vancouver Style - night series A couple of small boats going by created the horizontal lines, but also gave some shapes to the wonderful reflections

Morning light on False Creek, Vancouver, BC

A little blues, jazz kind of feel; dark but with feeling.... False Creek, Cambie Street Bridge, Vancouver, BC - view in FULL ZOOM MODE to feel the blues :)

Queen Elizabeth Park, Vancouver, BC

Plaza of Nations and BC Place on False Creek, near Olympic Village - this is a slightly different processed version

A world famous Vancouver landmark and home to science exhibitions - located at Olympic Village (now called "the Village") at False Creek

Disappointment, worry and disbelief on the faces of these Italian fans as they watch the second Spanish goal of the Eurocup

Commercial Drive, Vancouver, BC

This young Vancouver family jogging at Olympic Village presented an "idyllic" scene. I smiled, waved and pointed at my camera. They smiled and acknowledged it was ok to take.

Business towers, downtown Calgary, Alberta, Canada

I think its only an air conditioner but I love all that gleaming metal and clean colour. Taken early morning but almost too late - shooting into the sun a bit, but was able to recover the brights adequately.
A million abstracts there, I may very well return for.
