The Ol' Swimmin' Hole

New Brighton Pool, Vancouver

Got back to the pool the other day. The beauty of where I live here on the west coast never ceases to amaze me. This trip I remembered to take my small camera with me and capture the view from the pool deck. Flippin' awesome!

As far as my swimming capabilities go, let's just hope I'm not on a sinking ship any time soon...

Dig the kid in the red shirt fleeing the scene!

Half way to 90

Turned 45 years of age on the 12th. So much to do. So much up in the air. Taking stock of things and people in my life as well as things and people who've become part of my past. Goals achieved, goals to be reached. Becoming the person I aspire to be. Loved and lost, definitely worth the price of admission. Looking ahead to things that will be, people who will come into my life. When I meet people I sometimes find myself wondering how long they'll be part of my life.

It's been quite interesting watching my shooting style evolve into what it is now. It really has shaped into a reflection of who I am.

Further updates as events warrant...

Vic's Deck

I visit my brother Ted and his room mate Vic from time to time, usually when I've been invited over for dinner. Quite the eclectic pair indeed. It's always an experience & a pleasure to head over for a beverage and a good dose of second-hand smoke.

The other day I thought I'd bring over my camera and shoot some of the nic-nacs that Vic places in and about his flowers and plants. These are a few of the images I made that evening.

New Images

Happy Tuesday!!

Kit's

I made this image during a jaunt along the ocean, past Kitsilano pool last Saturday. The entire time I'd taken to compose this image, the Gilligan's Island theme music was repeating itself again and again in my head; Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale....

Crescent Beach

Lowest tide of the year at Crescent Beach out by Whiterock occurred recently. The tide recedes about 1 mile from the beach. Great nature exploration opportunity!

Many crabs, alive and not so much, everywhere. A car battery, slowly becoming a habitat for ocean-dwelling crusties, sat in the wet sand. Huge birds of prey casually stood by tidal pools.

Remarkable how such an exploratory walk can put perspective into things. The brutality and strength, the beauty and serenity of nature... we should really try harder to not f*** it up.
