This is a corridor in the Banff Springs Hotel. I came here late at night to capture the mood and feeling of the architecture which was designed after a Scottish Castle. I only hope I didn’t disturb the ghosts that surely must inhabit this chamber.

YVR
Not long ago while waiting for a flight I had time to look around at Vancouver airport.

Dallas
I’ve been through Dallas hundreds of times at the airport but recently I stayed there for a couple of days. On that trip I had an hour to walk around downtown on a Sunday. My impressions were that it’s flat, lots of tall buildings, lots of glass, and deserted on weekends. I need to go back on a week day.

Burrard Bridge Impression
In Vancouver, the Burrard bridge is a favorite subject of mine. It’s surrounded by marinas, apartment buildings, boats, water, parks, …it’s what we refer to as ‘target rich’.

Ancient Corridor
The Banff Springs Hotel is designed after a Scottish Castle. One day I walked through the maze of hallways trying to figure out how to get from one wing to the other when I happened upon this corridor. Fortunately it was the right one, otherwise I might still be there.

Vogue Theatre
The Vogue is on Granville Avenue in downtown Vancouver. Seems like a cool place to listen to some cool jazz.

Beach Houses
These houses are in Bradenton Beach in Florida. I’m not sure how long they’ve been here but I recently noticed them when walking back to my car after taking pictures of a sunset. I think I never noticed because they are across the street from the beach and when I’m driving or riding my bike on Gulf of Mexico drive, my eyes are always glancing at the beach, not the other way. These just add to the fun feel of the beach town that is Bradenton Beach.

Burrard Bridge Breezeway
This is taken atop the Burrard Bridge in Vancouver. I’m not sure breezeway is the right word since there is a road between the two openings, but it reminds of a breezeway so I’ll stick with it. I kind of liked the architecture and I doubt very much that this little gem is noticed by motorists as they drive by. But if you’re one of the many Vancouverites that walk on this bridge you’ll recognize this right away. Walking is a good way to notice things (as long as it’s not raining).

Van Wezel
This is the Van Wezel Performing Arts center in Sarasota Florida. Aside from being one of the best venues in the region, it has some pretty cool architecture which, in my opinion, enhances the feel of Sarasota. I took this one afternoon when we had typical storm clouds in the area but decided to go with the dramatic feel. Besides, performing arts includes a lot of drama.

Underside
This is the Lionsgate Bridge which links Vancouver with North Vancouver. The bridge is quite high to allow cargo and cruise ships access to Vancouver Harbor. The Stanley Park seawall and bike path pass under at this location. I can’t help but be impressed with the massive display of engineering and steel, especially when standing here. As I write this post from my Vancouver hotel room late in the evening, I can look over my right shoulder and see this bridge lit up against the North Vancouver mountains.
