Road Trip Through America Day One
I just moved from Vancouver, British Columbia to my hometown in Georgetown, Ontario. My incredible father came out to help me move and we had a road trip back through the United States. It was a really long drive, but we were really lucky and had great weather. We had a few places we wanted to see – Craters of the Moon, Yellowstone National Park, and Mount Rushmore – but the rest was just driving. Day One was a half day of driving through Washington. There were tons of army trucks on the roads and a base near where we stopped for the night, it was strange to see the…

Vancouver Fan Expo ’15 Pt 2
Vancouver Fan Expo 2015 featured incredible cosplay. Even when two people were the same character, their costumes were unique to themselves. As you enter the convention on the longest elevator in existence, the excitement builds. Lots of costumed characters line the walls, clump together in corners and wander the floor. The floor is a different story. You move as one entity, taking small steps as your eyes move from booth to booth. This slow crawl makes it slightly difficult to catch people for photos. It is great to see the detail in the pieces, and the makeup is often spectacular. This is my last Vancouver Fan Expo, but I hope I can…

Vancouver Fan Expo 2015
I was not supposed to attend the Vancouver Fan Expo 2015. Luckily, a friend took my Friday shift and I got to explore the first day of the convention. “Hey, there’s Captain America.” The cosplay at this years event was fantastic. There were some guys I recognized from two years ago, and lots of wonderful new costumed fans to chase and photograph. I went mostly to see Karen Gillan’s Q and A, but unfortunately it was cancelled due to an illness. Jennifer Morrison, of Once Upon A Time, also held a panel and was lovely. She answered questions with humour and grace. It is so nice to see how much…

East Vancouver
Walking back to my friends home I took a few shots of the street and the tracks. East Van looks so different then the rest of Vancouver, unique. I am going to try to get down there as much as possible before I leave.

Trout Lake
Sunday was a beautiful, ridiculously warm, day in Vancouver. Walking to the bus I saw a guy in shorts and a t-shirt. It was a little excessive, but it is getting close to summer on the west coast. I headed down to East Vancouver to hang out with my friend and took a stroll around Trout Lake. It was beautiful, it is always a good day when you can see the mountains. It is nice to be able to do most of the outdoor west coast things before I leave the province, but it is really strange to not have a real winter. Trout Lake is really relaxing, and a nice…

Battle of the Brush S5E1
I have been working Battle of the Brush on and off for two years now. This incredible event, created by Golden Brush Art and held at Heritage Hall, featured five teams of artists creating a work of art in 80 minutes. The theme for the first episode of season 5 was Beats on Canvas, and the works were diverse and beautiful. Here are some photos from the first half of the event:

Beach Day
On Monday I walked to the Maritime Museum in Kitsilano and sat on the beach. Apparently it was a dog beach, but that made for some great photos.

Granville Island Harbour and Seawall
Vancouver has decided to skip winter and move right on to spring. Yesterday, I took a walk through the Granville Island harbour and along the seawall. It was the perfect day for a walk along the ocean.
