Cascade Pond is just on the outskirts of Banff in Alberta Canada. I don't keep track of the moon phases as well as I should so it was a happy coincidence that the full moon was rising as I showed up at sunset. Also happy were the mosquitoes as they feasted in my arms while I waited for the moon to come out from behind the scattered clouds. In the end I was happy to get the shot and happy to get back in the car. All in all it was a happy occasion. Happy happy happy.
I have a disproportionate number of photos of the Ringling Bridge in Sarasota Florida, after all it's an area icon and I just can't resist. This was the last shot one evening a few weeks back. On this evening I was in "the zone" and just did't want to stop and had to mentally slap myself to break the spell. Nothing wrong with enjoying photography, it's just that I was on the hook to bring home take out. Nonetheless, on any given evening this pier is filled with local fishermen, tourist out for an evening stroll and sometimes the occasional photographer fighting against the clock.
This is a work of public art by Liz Magor called the Light Shed in Vancouver's Coal Harbour district. If nothing else it's striking when you come upon it or even notice it from a distance. I've taken pictures of this as have many others from the opposite perspective looking out across the harbour. If you Google images of this you'll see what I mean. However, one night while watching the ghostly lights illuminate from it's windows I got the idea to shoot back towards the city. Not sure if there's a point in all this, when I think of one I'll get back to you.
