Vancouver 30 (10 of 30)

Vancouver-0407
The feeling you get when you've finally arrived.  If you've never been to Vancouver, entering the city on Granville bridge is like a grand entrance into a scene.  A place unfamiliar can often feel out in the distance but that feeling can be absolved to greater heights during the first glance of a picturesque view that is just a moments pass from the bridge.  This place feels familiar, where the ideas of urban character have advanced into something positively fresh, safe, and promising.  I composed this shot to trace all the energy and directional space from the rail down the center core and using long exposure to generate streaking lights from passing automobiles.

Vancouver 30 (4 of 30)

Vancouver-1438

This is one of my favorite views of the city from Burrard Bridge, an entry and exit point into downtown Vancouver.  The look and feel of the city's modern presence begins at one of these entry points, and into a place that is neither complex nor simple, but perhaps desirable as you get closer to its modern high rise lifestyle.  Glassy, steele, and clean to make it simple.
