Various moments for your consideration

#BritishColumbia #StreetPhotography #Vancouver #VanSPC
Patrons in a busy cafe window. A woman quietly sells groceries on the pavement beneath an overpass. Employees pass the time at a quiet muffler shop. Looming clouds move in at a moody intersection.

October selections

#BritishColumbia #StreetPhotography #Vancouver #VanSPC
A pharmacy glows under twilight. A man shares his book review. Silhouettes of riders on the bus. A diner sits on a heated patio amongst autumn colours.

A man and his reflection glance at the photographer at an intersection. A pedestrian seemingly folds in on himself. A woman, her face aglow, quietly looks down at the pavement. Her reflection does much the same. A woman glances at the photographer amidst a collection of people on a busy street.

Retail reflections

A reflection in a storefront mirror frames a woman walking across the street. A mirror in a storefront reflects a cafe street scene.

A mural of a swarm of wasps with the terminal in the background. Rail lines arc into the distance through a chain-link fence. A school of vehicle swim past a salmon mural.

Fleeting moments under October sun

#NikonF3 #IlfordHP5 #BlackAndWhite #FilmPhotography #StreetPhotography #BelieveInFilm #Vancouver #Vanspc #HomeDeveloping
Downtown buildings loom as daylight reaches for street level. The shadows of pedestrians navigate a boulevard. People move through an intersection filled with oblique light. A young man watches a basketball arc toward the basket in a schoolyard.

A woman’s eyes viewed in the rearview mirror as a cars heads down the highway. Sunbeams channel through clouds into a dark valley. A pair of boots stand alone in a dirt clearing.

Victoria Drive sidewalk scenes

#BritishColumbia #StreetPhotography #Vancouver #VanSPC
A woman crosses a busy street as traffic swarms around her. Pedestrians wait for the bus in a cluttered shop doorway. Dolls and mannequins peer out at a window at the traffic-filled streets.

Desert studies, Chaparrosa Peak

A large boulder nestles precariously atop a field of rocks. An agave as viewed from above. A chiselled rock outcropping before moody skies. A weathered Joshua tree stands in the last rays of the day.

Every few months now I re-read this "Who Goes Nazi?" piece from 1941 and am blown away by how it captures the people we are dealing with 80 years later.

Selections from September's scavenging

#LeicaM6 #IlfordHP5 #BlackAndWhite #FilmPhotography #StreetPhotography #BelieveInFilm #Vancouver #Vanspc #HomeDeveloping
A look down on pedestrians as they navigate a busy intersection. A dilapidated suburban home from the back alley. A hotel is reflected in the curved roof of a parked car. The photographer captures his reflection in a storefront floral arrangement.

I'd just drive a different car every day, dependin' on how I feel

#BritishColumbia #StreetPhotography #Vancouver #VanSPC
Cars in various states of disrepair are crammed in a cluttered lot. The hand of an executive pictured in a billboard looms above.

#BritishColumbia #StreetPhotography #Vancouver #VanSPC
A small man rocks out in the front row of a street concert. A woman sits in a chair with tinfoil in her hair. A man crosses a busy street in the city centre. A person, out of frame enjoys their food in front of a Canadian flag.

Postcards from the last weekend of summer

#BritishColumbia #StreetPhotography #Vancouver #VanSPC
A man scans the street scene as pedestrians move through the frame. A child in a shark costume attacks Granville Street. A traffic cop guides a vehicle that is going the wrong way. A woman looks down the road into the distance.

I caught up with my Vanspc friends for a downtown photowalk with the inspiring Agnus Burger. Great fun!

A man with headphones and sunglasses navigates down the centre of Granville. People at rest by the stairs at the library. Pedestrians navigate through a field of polka dots. A woman moves along the street with a plastic bag full of flowers.

A graffiti artist stands on a ladder and contemplates his next moves. A man adds some finishing touches to piece from atop a dumpster. In a dark alley people watch artists at work. A photographer captures a scene in a dark alley as pedestrians mill about.

Lost in thought

#BritishColumbia #StreetPhotography #Vancouver #VanSPC
A couple pause in mid-converse in a coffee shop window. A stand of sunflowers with focus on the middle-distance. A Skytrain rider scans the view from the train. People ride an escalator, each with their own concerns.
