Vancouver 2010

The Olympic circus is here - this is a selection of the festivities through my lens. Enjoy!


The Olympic flame - safely behind a fence

The Olympic flame - safely kept away from the marauding crowds behind a lovely chain link fence.


Granville Street for the People!

Large sections of Granville St and Robson St are closed to vehicle traffic, returning the streets to the people - and the people are making their claim. I personally think that most of Granville and Robson should be permanently closed to car traffic, the footpaths widened and just allow buses to run up the middle.


Waving the Maple Leaf from mooseback!

And the climax of Stephen Colbert's second day of filming by False Creek - giving in to the crowd's chant of "Ride the Moose! Ride the Moose! Ride the Moose!". He took it one step forward by waving the Canadian flag around too. Classic. Can't wait to see the show next week!
