Lights Out! on Flickr.Via Flickr:
Downtown disappears into a mid-day fog a couple weeks ago behind a new exhibit of Canadian Painting from the 60’s at the Vancouver Art Gallery. We’ve got to remember to renew our membership so that we can go check it out soon.
Every time I shoot with the Canonet, I think I’ve got to get myself a Leica M again. When I scan the negs, I wonder why anyone would spend the money on one! ;-)

Cruising. on Flickr.Via Flickr:
I’d have to say, one of my better decisions in life has been to live next door to the Coal Harbour Community Centre. For the first 5 years in the neighbourhood, we only went there to vote or for the odd wedding but, since Trajan’s come along, we barely ever string three days in a row together without a trip to the Gymboree or one of the other great programs they’ve got for kids.
Even better yet, thanks to the Gymboree, we don’t need to figure out where to stuff one of these cars in our apartment!

The Question Is… on Flickr.Via Flickr:
Is it OK to upload pictures taken with my Rolleiflex on a Vancouver 4/3’s group wander into the Vancouver 4/3’s group? Or, is this maybe a sneak preview of Olympus’ upcoming ‘Tri-X with Uncoated Tessar Lens’ Art Filter?

“I respectfully question the veracity of your claims sir.” on Flickr.Via Flickr:
While listening politely to Grandpa’s stories of beaver tail soup during the Christmas dinners of his youth in the wilds of Northern Alberta, Trajan is always skeptical of stories that involve the tired old plot device of trudging 8 miles too and from somewhere in driving snow and howling winds, uphill. Both ways. In July.

“But, why is he ignoring me?” on Flickr.Via Flickr:
Ava turned two on New Year’s Day so, we just had to attend her party, sure to be remembered as the affair of the year. Ava’s Mom is one of Lisa’s oldest friends and they’re both absolute sweethearts. 
Ava, however, got a little miffed when, after she was nice enough to go and get Trajan his sippy cup, he simply ignored her. Don’t worry Ava, Trajan’s just a little intimidated by older women, he’ll come around!

"There was once a word used---swing. Swing went in one direction, it was linear, and everything had to be played with an obvious pulse and that's very restrictive. But I use the term 'rotary perception.' If you get a mental picture of the beat existing within a circle, you're more free to improvise. People used to think the notes had to fall on the center of the beats in the bar at intervals like a metronome, with three or four men in the rhythm section accenting the same pulse. That's like parade music or dance music. But imagine a circle surrounding each beat-each guy can play his notes anywhere in that circle, and it gives him a feeling he has more space. The notes fall anywhere inside the circle, but the original feeling for the beat isn't changed. If one in the group loses confidence, somebody hits the beat again. The pulse is inside you. When you're playing with musicians who think this way you can do anything. Anybody can stop and let the others go on. It's called strolling…."
