Last weekend I made a whirlwind trip to Vancouver to see my nephew. He’s been living and working there for about a year and absolutely loves the views in and around Vancouver! He asked me to come out and photograph some of his favorite views for wall decor in his home and office. I arrived noon on Saturday the 14th – but the lighting was not great – so we scouted locations to photograph. By the time the evening sweet light was done, I felt we got some wonderful images, but Steve wanted the Vancouver skyline at dawn. “You do know what time the sun rises, don’t you?” I asked him. “Not sure,” he said, “I’ll check”. He Googled it and announced, “6:04 am.” Seriously?? To quote a good friend “If God wanted us to see the sunrise, he would have scheduled it for 11:00 am!”. We didn’t get to bed till 1:30 in the morning Pacific time (3:30 my time!) and 4 hours later we were up! Couldn’t find a Starbucks or Tim Hortons open at that time of morning. Sad. But seeing this view made it all worth while and this is one of my favorite images!
