This was taken from a bus window on the way into the City of Vancouver. The homes displayed here as we were on the Lions Gate Bridge showing the West Vancouver areas. It it a very beautiful area of BC to live in.
~ last of the series of this park - this is the front view of the main waterfall, mist is abundant with the heavy water flow, so necessitated me keeping up with clearing the lens - another gorgeous gem tucked away in an Island park ~
It was cold with high windsand the sea walk as well as the benches were covered with snow. The sun was shining and lit up the water.
Over the holidays my family and I spent precious time together, away from the busy-ness of schedules and deadlines. We laughed and hiked and cooked and ate and played with the dog. We shared stories and gifts. It was a time to plug in to our connectedness, to nurture our affinity, and to refresh our united souls. The memories will be cherished forever. My heart is full.

Thoroughly enjoyed the Northern Light Show last night.. the added bonus was listening to the Orcas blowing in the ocean as the Lights danced above ..truly a West Coast Experience!!!
A place where nature creates its own landscape.
The clouds were moving in, but allowed the warm autumn sunrays to pass through peridodically adding a wonderful warm glow to the landscape. By the next morning the clouds had fully engulfed the sky and a light drizzle ensued for for the remaining two days we enjoyed here.

Raccoons measure between 60-95cm (24 - 37in) from nose to tail and tend to weigh between 6-8 kilograms (13 - 18 lbs). Females tend to be approximately 25% smaller than males. Wild raccoons usually have a life expectancy of 3 to 5 years. They have several predators including coyotes, cougars, wolves, and great-horned owls. Other threats include disease, vehicle collisions and starvation in harsh winters. Raccoons are protected under the BC Wildlife Act which I was surprised as there are so many.
While most raccoons are primarily nocturnal, they may also be seen foraging during the day. Many times while out doing night photos, I have one or two come visit me. They are opportunistic omnivores, feeding on an extremely varied diet and continually exploring their habitat to find new food sources. Therefore their nickname ‘trash pandas’ fits perfectly. Highly adaptable, they can thrive in the densest of urban centers. Raccoons have incredibly sensitive and dexterous forepaws which allow them to eat a variety of food.
Like bears, raccoons in much of their Canadian range have a winter denning period where they sleep away the harsh winter months. Here on Vancouver Island we see them all year long.
Not everyone agrees with me, but they are very cute and very photogenic :)

The beautiful almost Harverst Moon peeking above the clouds from my neighbourhood in New Westminster near Vancouver, BC, Canada.
It's been awhile again since I have been keeping busy and haven't had too much inspiration for photos, but I never miss a chance to capture the beautiful moon if it arises.
About this photo: I knew that the moon was going to rise around 7pm local time, so while we were out walking our dogs I figured I would drag my camera around. I was hoping to catch a glimpse of the almost full Harvest Moon rising near Mount Baker. I wasn't just if it was going to happen as there were some clouds behind Mount Baker.
To my delight I noticed the moon rising from behind the clouds and was so happy that Mount Baker was still lit up by the last rays of the sun as well. I waited until the moon was just above the clouds to capture this photo. I was very happy I dragged my camera along for a few photos of this.
I hope you like it?

Some information on New Westminster: New Westminster is a city that belongs to the Greater Vancouver area. New Westminster is located about 20 minutes from downtown Vancouver along the Fraser River. This beautiful city is also called "The Royal City". The city also reminds people of San Francisco, especially because of the steep hills in town. So be prepared for those hills!
New Westminster was founded by the Royal Engineers under the command of Colonel Richard Clement Moody, and named by Queen Victoria after her favourite neighbourhood in London, Westminster. It is also the oldest city in western Canada and it was the capital of British Columbia between 1858 and 1866.
Located right in the middle of the Greater Vancouver network today, New Westminster is a charming mix of old and new, with a picturesque waterfront and fabulous Victorian architecture. It's a vibrant and progressive city with a community rich in tradition and respect for its heritage.
Come and visit this beautiful city when you are in Vancouver and find out for yourself how charming this city is. There are many things to see and to visit in New Westminster such as: New Westminster Museum and Archives, Irving House, the Samson V Paddle Wheeler, New Westminster Quay Public Market, the Antique Alley, Queen's Park, the 7-11 cycling Trail and much more.

This shot was inspired by that famous cherry blossom shot in Tokyo Skytree. I tried few spots at the Waterfront Station to get an angle similar to the photo I saw.
Have a wonderful week! :)

Spent a fabulous day wandering the beaches of the west coast in the warmth of the sun and then came back to the campsite to see this!
Whistler Blackcomb is opening next week and I couldn't be more excited! The other day I decided to go for a hike above Emerald. We got some nice views but for the most part we saw a lot of clouds so I was lucky to get a decent shot.
