If you ever get the opportunity to go to Hornby Island during the Summer months you will definitely want to pack along your bathing suit. Hornby Island does offer some designated places for people to swim in. These places are ocean shore locations but are protected by coves or bays which makes swimming safe and fun. The other neat thing is that the tides go out, way out, which helps … Continue Reading »

The great thing about living in Vancouver is the close proximitry of Whistler. Even though it is like a second home to Robyn and I in the Winter, we do frequently visit it also in the Summer too. Yes, I only consider there to be two seasons in BC; Summer and Winter. This past Sunday Robyn, her mum and myself headed up to Whistler for a little bit of siteseeing. The … Continue Reading »

@SpandyAndy said he was going to be groovin to some tunes down in English Bay tonight so we decided to check out the action. Though when we got there he was just chilling with this crew. Perhaps next time SpandyAndy says he's going to be down in English Bay, hopefully he'll be able to dance! … Continue Reading »

This past week Robyn and I have been fairly busy. We were on Vancouver Island for a good 5 days, though primarily were in Victoria for our friends Wedding (by the way, it was fun and I did a good job as their photographer). Granted while in Victoria we did stay with Robyn's brother so that saved us some money, as many people know how expensive it is to travel … Continue Reading »

The weather here in Vancouver has been a bit odd lately (when is it ever really normal?) so Keith and I headed outside for a quick loop around Lost Lagoon. On today's menu (well for me at least) was to capture the resident Red-Winged Blackbirds. I don't really have a decent photo of the male or female, but I kept trying. These were the results from the walk. The female (above … Continue Reading »

I could have used the title "Photos From Today", but today is somewhat different then the rest. My buddy and I did our usual walk around Stanley Park's Lost Lagoon but today we were in for a treat. One of the Mute Swan's finally had a successful hatching. Yup that's right, 1 cygnet has been hatched. There were 2 bad eggs amongst this particular Mute Swan's nest, but it is … Continue Reading »

It sure looks like I go out a lot and take photos eh? Well on good weather days I do try and get out as much as possible for as long as possible. Especially as I write this the wind and rain has just moved in over the West End. Keith and I got out for a bit of a walk around the Stanley Park area as the good weather … Continue Reading »

It might be early to do a post like this, but I though I would sneak outside in the beautiful weather before it has a chance to rain. I headed out to Lost Lagoon for a little relaxing walk. The more I walk around Lost Lagoon, the less I take photos. I'm either finding Lost Lagoon doesn't hold my attention as much or I'm getting less shutter-happy the more I … Continue Reading »

For Robyn and I the 2009/2010 Winter season has finally come to a close and we couldn't be happier with the time we had up on Blackcomb. The sun was out in full force, the lift lines were practically non-existent and the snow was better than we expected. Robyn also said this was the first time she has ever seen 7th Heaven open during the spring. We must attribute that … Continue Reading »

The weather here in Vancouver has been just simply awesome! Nothing but blue skies and lots of sun. You would almost think that it was Summer here. I still believe Vancouver only receives two seasons per year; Summer & Winter. Yesterday as Robyn was getting ready for work (at 5 AM) I was pretty much awake and decided I would go looking for the elusive Coyote that seems to have taken … Continue Reading »
