We recently traveled to Vancouver where I had a chance to capture a few non landscape images. My goal was to explore some of the nooks and crannies around the Vancouver Public Library.

I didn't get too many good sunrises on my Trip along the Great Ocean Road. This however was a particularly stunning one with a patchy covering of high cloud which lit up over the Gibson Steps.
Looking over on to the smaller rocks at Bedruthan Steps, with some of the wild flowers in the foreground.
