Reaching Out


I pass this grass plant nearly every day on my way home from work. On this particular day, the lighting was just right with a magical, nearly-dusk feel to it.

Walking at Sunset


We finally had some nice sunsets after a week of dreary, grey summer weather. I managed to catch this family walking on the dikes just as the sun sank past the horizon making for a nice, peaceful shot.

Fresh Blueberries Galore!


If there's one thing I absolutely LOVE about living in Vancouver, it's blueberry season. Better yet, I love the fact that I live no more than 15 minutes away from some really nice organic blueberry farms where I can go pick fresh berries off the bushes and put away twenty or thirty pounds for the winter. For those who have to buy their blueberries in those plastic boxes from the supermarket, I feel for you!

Sunset Lightning Storm In Vancouver


We had an incredible lightning storm in Vancouver last weekend; you could tell from the dark clouds rolling in from the east that a storm was brewing. Sure enough, just around sunset, the skies over Vancouver opened up and rain came pelting down. Shortly afterwards, the lightning bolts came down giving the most spectacular light show just ahead of the fireworks scheduled for that night.

With some patience, I was able to capture some of Nature's best as the storm passed over our heads!
