Sunset arrival

A cruise ship approaches Vancouver as the sun sets. This was taken from a BC Ferry crossing from Horseshoe Bay to Nanaimo.

Golden moment

I got this on the same evening as I shot "Evening Cast." I stopped at this lake at the perfect time just before sunset and caught the wonderful glow of the early autumn colors.

Shooting the shooter

Deddeda Stemler, on assignment for the Globe and Mail, shoots me for a story the Globe is doing on the Duncan totem photo policy. Last I heard, the story is supposed to run in the Wednesday, Sept. 26 issue. It was a great pleasure for me too meet Deddeda and I learned a fair bit just watching her in action. She has a great portfolio online at www.deddeda.com.

Contre Jour

I love shooting against the sun. This was on a boating trip from Nanaimo through the Gulf Islands on Saturday. For those of you who are wondering, "contre jour" translated from French means "against the day." It's a photographic term used for shooting into the sun - or any main light source, for that matter.

Stupid

There's absolutely nothing wonderful about this picture. It's just that every now and again, you see a sign that's so stupid it just begs to be shot. You'd think that if the term "hand brake" is going to be used in a sign, a more appropriate icon would have been used. I like to thank BC Ferries for providing me with this laugh.

Evening Cast

A lone fisherman casts a line into Bear Lake at sunset.

More arts insanity
