Northern Lights - Arviat, Nunavut, Canada

Missed any photo opportunities today, so an older photo from October will take it's place.  From a work trip up north...Arviat, Nunavut.  Great time of year for Aurora Borealis.

Hummingbird at Feeder - Victoria, BC

Didn't take too many photos today, couldn't get this bird in flight, but it'll have to do.

Christmas Day Walk - Clover Point - Victoria

Probably the warmest Christmas day I've ever had (having spent other years in Eastern Canada), everyone and their dog and family was out today.  Some beautiful light and contrast today with the clouds.  Had to add a couple today!

Windy Ferry Ride to Vancouver Island

Of all the scenic photos I took on route to Swartz Bay on Vancouver Island, this one captured the windy and wavy day the best!

Zoom Burst at Night - Vancouver Apartment Building

Lacking an easy subject today and time, I've opted for a zoom burst.  It actually goes well with one of the books I'm reading right now Experimental Digital Photography (by Rick Doble).  Don't do too many of these, but it's interesting to see the different affects you can get from you camera going a bit beyond typical shutter speeds and exposures.  

Camera: Nikon D80, 18-200mm VR lens
5.0 sec @ f / 5.3, ISO 200
Post Production: enhanced vibrancy/contrast/saturation

Christmas Window Display - Tree and BIG Snow Flake

Not a lot of time to take photos today, came across this shop window on my way home.  That's one BIG snowflake.

Day 1 - Burrard Station Busker - Vancouver

First Post of my 365 daily photo challenge!!  I liked this vantage point above.  The busker seems so isolated from the crowd here.

The Start of 365 of Vancouver Daily Photo

A personal challenge, and one I thought I'd start before the new year.  365 days of photos, with a photo taken each day - that's the idea anyway.

I've back posted a few photos from before today, some of my favorites since moving to Vancouver in the Summer of 2010.

Brightly Colored Autumn Leaves - Vancouver

One of my back-posted images, but a favorite fall image from this year in Vancouver.  Love the bright red and yellow colours in this image.

Morning Fog Along the Grouse Grind Trail - Vancouver

Did the Grouse Grind for the first time in August 2010.  Not a great morning for it with rain and fog, but it made for some great photos in the forest.
