Photography 101: Weekend Twofrom dawn to dusk and into the night

alight 8

Throughout the summer I have been photographing the city skyline of Vancouver against an ever changing sky. Cheri’s suggestion that we consider the quality of light throughout the day for this weekend’s Photography 101 submissions has given me the perfect excuse to put some of these photos together. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did taking them.

Photography 101: Warmth – Still in a Remembrance Day frame of mind

warmth v

Keep the Home Fires Burning,
While your hearts are yearning.
Though your lads are far away
They dream of home.
There’s a silver lining
Through the dark clouds shining,
Turn the dark cloud inside out
Till the boys come home.

composed in 1914 by Ivor Novello with words by Lena Gilbert Ford
