Took one of my old photos and played around with some editing. Always good to try some experimentation. Here’s a shot I took a few years ago of the Queensboro Bridge

With all the work I’ve been doing over at ArtofStance, I haven’t been shooting much other than cars cars and more cars. I’ve been trying to get out again to shoot more regularly. While over twitter, I found out my friends @GluttonwithaCam and @mananetwork started to organize some local photowalks. Of course I jumped at the opportunity to join them on an evening photowalk through downtown. Though it was a damp and wet night, its a start of things to come as I find myself doing more photowalks in 2012.
Our group also consisted of @dangerphoto, @TiannaNK, @bdashaler, @thepatrickleung and we walked, climbed, and hopped our way through downtown and the Vancouver east side. After shooting photos of cars for the past 7 months, I admit I’m a little rusty but being a part of this group will inspire me to get back into the loop!

The weather was a bit overcast but the sun started to peek out by the late morning. We checked out New Brighton Park (which I’ll post a few photos in a later post) and the skateboard park by the Pacific National Exhibition in Vancouver. It was the first time I’ve been there where there was nobody using it so we were able to walk around freely inside the bowl. The surrounding park around the area is also worth walking around.

Last night was the start of illuminate Yaletown which is a public event bring talented artists together to showcase contemporary interactive light art. It was unfortunate that it was a rainy night but a few of us did show up to try to get some good photos of the displays. The event will be ending tonight so try to check it out! Here are some of my captures during the photowalk.

Last week, I organized another Revscene photowalk with some local amateur and pro photographers from the forum. Originally 20+ people signed up and it was looking to be our biggest photowalk yet! However the morning of the photowalk was looking pretty grey and the weather forecast called for rain for the afternoon. About 10 of us actually showed up and Richard was kind enough to pick up some Optech rainsleeves for us to protect our gear from the elements. The walk went pretty well and I think everyone managed to get some great shots from the outing. We went to Steveston after to grab lunch but as we left the restaurant, the rain was really coming down and we decided to quit while we were ahead. I plan to organize another romp through Steveston when the weather gets better.
