the new-and-improved BC Place

Canada’s birthday is on Sunday (July 1), and we have Monday off. Let’s see many shoots I can get edited in three days! I’m trying to have a productive Friday evening of editing on a few hours of sleep, but thankfully I can SLEEP IN tomorrow and not be rudely awakened at 4:45am by the two phone alarms I need to get up at that hour. It’s been a long week… roll on, long weekend! I’m going to try and shoot part of the Pride Parade, for the first time since 2008. Every year since then I’ve been out of town or otherwise occupied — 2011 was in Montreal, 2010 was at a cottage up north, and I was volunteering that day in 2009. I’ll have to stake out a good spot on Sunday in advance — I’m short!

I posted one night shot from Vancouver when I came back, but I’ve uploaded a few more. I love nightshots, but it’s a bit risky doing it on my own — I’m glad my friend was up for it. All the shots were taken between 2:00-3:00 in the morning, without a tripod. Or a beverage of any kind.
