Over the next few days I will be posting photos from around Vancouver as our Fall turns to Winter. It’s been getting colder and colder yet the sun still seems to be able to make an appearance every so often. When it does, its best to take advantage. Today I went on a photowalk around Stanley Park. Traffic heading through downtown was the usual weekend mess.

Revscene is a very large local car/lifestyles forum in Vancouver. I’m usually most active in the photography forum and I sometimes organize photowalks around town. These photowalks are a great way to meet some of the other members and to share tips and advice with photography enthusiasts. Last month I organized an evening photowalk around False Creek with some members of Revscene.

Ever since they rebuilt/renovated the Woodwards building in Vancouver, I’ve been meaning to go down there and take a look. After much procrastination I went down there and it’s a pretty nice building. There is a London Drugs there and a inner courtyard with a basketball court in it. The main focal point though is an abstract stairway that leads up to the upper floors.

After babysitting my niece and nephew for the whole day, I had an urge to go for a drive. What prompted me was the Pixar film Cars which I was watching with the kids. Specifically the scene where Lightning Mcqueen and Sally were taking a scenic drive. I didn’t actually head out for my drive with till about 10pm and I went with dabu6o4. Its a good idea to head out somewhere with a friend especially late at night for safety reasons. We ended up driving up to Cypress Bowl, Horseshoe Bay, and Ambleside Park. Here are some photos from last night.

Granville Island usually provides a great variety of things to see and photograph. Here are some shots I took a few weeks ago on an evening walk through the area.
