Even Keel's 2010 Olympic gig plays tribute to Nodar Kumaritashvili

Even Keel played an awesome show at the Edgewater outdoor stage in the Plaza of Nations, and I could not be more honoured taking part of this tribute to Nodar!

I only had my point and shoot with me, and the gal who drove this car in a Canon Brigade tol me I could sit in her car - then she took a few shots! GO CANON!

This beach in False Creek was just littered (in a good way) with Inukshuks that are continually made by people - there are hundreds along this rock beach!

Vancouver 2010 Olympic Shoot #2

I went downtown Vancouver to do some more 2010 pre-Olympic shooting. My friend, Dan and I walked and walked and walked around Vancouver for about 6 1/2 hours, stopping lots to take photos. I was so sore by the end if it too. I am not used to walking so much on pavement. I think we covered about 12 kms.

This was an outside wall full of licence plates! Very Cool!
Oh Canada!
