University of British Columbia
On Monday, a friend and I went to the University of British Columbia. We originally intended to stroll through Pacific Spirit Regional Park (we did at the end of the day), but ended up walking across the massive campus. UBC is beautiful, old buildings sandwiched between new glass buildings, interesting structures and stunning sights. It has been warm and sunny in Vancouver, perfect conditions for great photos.

Brothers Creek Loop
On Saturday I ventured to my friends house on the North Shore. We planned for a photo adventure and settled on Brothers Creek Loop. We weren’t out for too long because of the rain, but I did manage to get a few good shots. The fog on the water was so thick, and we were so high up that you couldn’t see anything, but it was stunning. Everything was so lush and green. The trail was great, clearly marked paths but you could still explore. The trees were massive, and there were lots of streams, and bridges. It was a fun day, and hopefully next time when we go out…

Fogcouver Part 1
The fog has made a comeback in Vancouver. After my hair appointment, I followed Main Street down to C.R.A.B. Park. It was eerie seeing the ocean covered with fog, but Gastown and the train tracks looked stunning.

Gastown
I was looking through my photos recently and realized I neglected to post my Gastown shots. These were taken a few months back when my father was in town, and contain some of my favourite photos from Vancouver. Enjoy!

Steveston, Richmond
Steveston is an adorable little town in British Columbia. A friend and I went down to check out the exteriors to the show Once Upon a Time, but stayed for the cute shops and beautiful view.

Once Upon a Time in Steveston
Once Upon a Time is set in small town Maine, but is actually filmed in a small town in British Columbia. When I found out how close “Storybrooke” is to my house, I decided to check out the exterior set in the town of Stevenston. The town is adorable, and it was neat to walk along the streets after seeing the show. The back room of Mr. Gold’s Pawnshop is an amazing vintage store, that I will definitely be returning to. I have more photos from the day in the town which I will post over the next couple days.

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.
