Olympic pics
A "few" from the Olympics...
One of the American gals at Ladies Moguls, maybe Barhke?
Robson Square Zipline
Downtown Vancouver from Jericho Beach
Sweden vs. Slovakia, women's hockey
Russia's women's curling team.
FFFFFFFKKKKKK (USA - red stones - calls timeout)
Haha, Canadians...
Colbert works the crowd
At the behest of the mob, Colbert rides the moose.
Inukshuk (not the big one at English Bay, one of the many little ones at False Creek)
Some kind of bird.
Nice car, asian dude.
Vancouver at night, again.
Olympic Flame
Switzerland vs. Belarus went into a shootout.
So many volunteers, some of whom clearly had too much time on their hands.
Mascots - Miga and Quatchi

More Olympic pics
Inappropriate mascots!
Men's Aerials
You don't really see how high they get on TV.
"Ignite the dream" at Robson Square.
... meanwhile, people keep skating like nothing's happening above them.
The torch at night.
Fireworks at LiveCity Yaletown.
See of Red at the the hockey final. Ruined by the IOC seats.
These guys were up in the bleachers, not where you'd get on TV.
Woohoo! We win!
Perry goes and gets the big flag.
At the CTV studio on Robson street.
Downtown Vancouver at dusk, seen from Lonsdale Quay.
A bit later, in the brief window where the wind was co-operating for reflections.
Vancouver couldn't decide if it was fall or spring apparently. Even this tree seemed to think it was both, but was sure it wasn't winter.
Lens that goes to 200mm, you make it too easy.

Sunrise this morning, f/22 and the biggest, baddest ND filter I have (2-stop, haha - it's the only one I have) to blur the cars as much as possible.

I'm not much of a photographer. I just use a point-and-shoot. Here's a few I've gotten lucky on over the last few years.
From Prince's Island Park this summer
Beltline this summer
Calgary skyline from SAIT campus, Martin Cohos Commons in foreground, a few summers ago
Creek out toward Caroline I think (can't really recall), a couple summers ago
Prairie landscape south of Drumheller a couple summers ago
Almost stepped on this little guy while on the job, east of Rocky Mountain House a couple summers ago
Foothills NW of Cochrane
Lethbridge's south side skyline, from across the Oldman River, a couple summers ago
Leaf prints on the sidewalk
Oldest university building still operating in Canada, Sir Howard Douglas Hall, built in 1827, University of New Brunswick in Fredericton
Street in Fredericton, NB during the fall
Path leading down to a beach on island of Oahu, Hawaii, a few summers ago

Gawd, that M-Tech Building is beautiful. Truly one of Calgary's finest pieces of architecture.

Regulator75, how do you get all these different views? Do you just wander into random buildings?

You saying that just makes me think how generally plain and uninteresting Calgary architecture is.

I'm a bit of an architecture and urban enthusiast.
I'll try to get anywhere I can.
