From Darkness to Light – Church in Vancouver
While in Vancouver a couple of weeks ago I noticed that while I had my cameras I wasn’t taking any pictures. I would leave my gear in my hotel room and dont necessarily carry it to work with me each day as its too cumbersome. (my camera bag weighs 42 lbs)
Frustrated with my lack of pictures, I took out a camera (My trusty D700) and my 28-70mm Wide Angle and put them in my backpack. I carried it around with me like that for days. Still no pictures. I was so focused on getting to work that I wouldn’t use my camera eye to locate pictures. Finally, on the 24th of August I decided that not only would I carry my camera, I would carry it with me, lens cap off and ready to shoot. Much to my amazement… I started taking pictures. This was one I got on my way home from work
The rusticated stone work made for a very nice texture in B&W. This shot is taken from the street looking up at the churches main spires. The shadow is caused by a looming overhead condo/skyscraper.

that’s cool. I try to stay out of my head and look up when I’m downtown. So much beauty goes unnoticed.
