Rugby
In University, I took photos for the student paper, which mostly meant taking photos of some Rugby games. Recently, I was looking through my photos and found a few of the shots, enjoy!

Giants
The largest public art featured in Vancouver is the Giants by Brazilian twins Os Gemeos. They took over the concrete silos on Granville Island and created these incredible ‘giants.’ The work is beautiful from afar but close up the detail is insane. I can’t wait to see it when they finish!

Jelly Beans
Giant jelly beans are the latest public art installations in Vancouver. They sit along the seawall and are fully interactive. I watched a guy put his dog on top of one so he could take a picture of it, which is, I’m sure, exactly what the artist was expecting.

Georgetown
Every time I go back to Georgetown I am shocked by how different it is. As I grew up the town was expanding, but the past few years the town has grown quite large. This time, instead of focusing on the new sections of the town, I went to old Georgetown. Main street is picturesque, and in some pictures looks like a toy. The old buildings are beautiful, the street is perfectly groomed and there is an odd sense of comfort and safety as you walk the street. It is a wonderful place to visit and only makes me want to adventure around more small towns.

Winery
Here are the rest of the photos from my time back home. We visited a berry picking farm/winery on the edge of Georgetown neither of us knew about. This cute farm was a lovely stop and a great find.

Halton
Coming home is always lovely, but in the winter Georgetown is a completely different place. Summer here is gorgeous, and since I haven’t been home in a while, my father and I adventured. Georgetown is a tiny town surrounded by farmland. The photos of Main street, which will be posted tomorrow, don’t even look real. It wasn’t the liveliest place to grow up but coming back from the city to a small town is always nice.

East Van
Last week I went to visit a friend in East Van, the plan was to look around and take some photos, unfortunately our first stop was Bomber Brewery. After drinking a few beers we grabbed food and went to a park to lie in the sun. Not too many pictures were taken but good times were had.

Battle of the Brush ’14
Battle of the Brush is a live painting competition that brings together two artists to create a work of art in eighty minutes. I attended almost all of them last year but this was the first for this year. The theme was Cartoons and Anime and each painting was unique. Some went for beloved Disney characters while other artists created a scene and a story in their painting. Here are the first half of the photos from the event, the other half will be posted tomorrow, Enjoy!
