The Sidewalk at Night

At night the city has a different feel. Objects seem to become something other than what they were during the day.

Apartment Building, Vancouver, BC

The many patterns decorating this building seem to clash. Still, there is some odd unity. They seem to come together as if cut and pasted into a collage.

Apartment Near The Hospital

The apartment near the hospital includes a variety of windows, all telling very different stories. As the green of summer is slowly turning into a brown from too much heat I’m returning to doing some architectural photos.

Under the Bridge at Daybreak

Early morning, following the pathway along the creek. The bridge allows in just the start of the day.

The Garden Hose

Today was over 115 degrees F, at times up to 121. It was so bright I had difficulty seeing what was in front of me. Still, in the garden, there were quiet, cooler green spaces where a breeze and some shade made a difference. These gardens present as natural dioramas, carefully planted to signal random growth and development….but there is nothing natural about them. You still feel the hidden hand behind the scene. And occasionally, when a water pipe, hose, or small sign enters the Fram you realize things are not as they appear.

The Monument Without a Purpose

Looking out over the Pacific, the monument has nothing to say. People get off the road, park and walk by to see the ocean, but ignore the obvious.
