I know many avoid Instagram for good reasons.

Still, a lot of photographers are active there, and I’ve been using it to study their work and grow as I have much to learn.

If you’re still on IG and want to keep up with my #photography journey there too, I’m @albumlon

📷 Modern Declaration

~ Scrawled across a boulder at a roadside rest stop was an analog thought now ironically shared in digital form.

#photography #photooftheday #photographersofbluesky #graffitiphotography #deepthoughts
A large boulder surrounded by rugged grey rocks is spray-painted with the message: “Life’s better when yah phone dead.” The text stands out in white against the natural stone in a remote, wild location.

📷 Rolling Nostalgia

I had an enjoyable time wandering around Downtown Chilliwack during yesterday’s Village Classic Car Show. This Ford Thunderbird caught my eye with its bright red paint and chrome.

📷 Old Town Pulse

Edinburgh is the epitome of the past and present living side by side. Everyone goes about their daily lives, walking or driving on top of stones, each that could tell a different story.

#photography #bnwphotography #edinburgh #scotland #travel
A black and white photograph of a historic street in Edinburgh, Scotland. The image shows rows of old stone buildings with gabled rooftops and steep facades, bathed in sunlight and shadow. A black cab and a double-decker bus (rendered in grayscale) travel down the cobbled street, alongside pedestrians and modern vehicles. The scene captures the blend of historic charm and present-day life in the city.

📷 Where Sunset Meets Steel

What’s your favorite place to watch the sunset?

#lionsgatebridge #vancouver #urbanphotography #photography #bridge
A sweeping view of the Lions Gate Bridge in Vancouver during golden hour. A small motorboat cuts across the water beneath the bridge, leaving a soft wake behind. The warm light hits the bridge’s steel structure and gently paints the surrounding mountains and skyline. The moment captures contrast between architectural stillness and the subtle movement of the boat.

📷 Old World Serenity

Sometimes I browse through old trip photos just to reminisce and suddenly something just clicks. Here's one from back in March from Dean Village in Edinburgh.

📷 The Drummer of Bowen Island

This weekend I wandered over to Bowen Island and explored some of its trails and parks. Caught this little bird quickly before it flew away. Pretty sure it’s a red breasted sapsucker.

A red-headed woodpecker clings to the side of a weathered, sun-bleached tree trunk against a vivid blue sky on Bowen Island. The texture of the tree contrasts sharply with the bird’s bright plumage.

📷 Quiet Wilt

I didn't have to go far for this photo. Just into the backyard. We have some chives growing and I've been staring at them for the last couple of days thinking of capturing a photo of them. Let me know what you think.

In a sea of silence, one bloom dares to speak in colour. Unafraid and unapologetically alive.

This lone tulip bloomed in its own unique way. Defiant it refused to be painted with the same brush as all the others.

📷 The Silent Corridor

This photo was taken at the National Museum of Scotland during my visit to Edinburgh in March. I was captivated by the arches and the tiling of the floor down this hallway.

📷 A Mirror for the Sky

Snapped this shot of Kamloops Lake from the top of a hill outside Tobiano, BC. The sky's reflection on the lake's surface was even more stunning in person.

📷 Alexandra's Bridge

Drove up to Alexandra Bridge Provincial Park just north of Hope to this historical bridge. It's was a bit jarring looking down and seeing the flowing river below.
