A dolphin shows off his circling skills...
A plane that we couldn't identify. Tristar maybe?

The distant mountains
Across the waterfront
A little way round the path
Matt is here too.
Some big rocks here
Back towards Vancouver
and again
West Vancouver visable on the far shore
Its quite a long path round, but the sceney is very nice.
Siwash Rock. Apparently someone was turned to stone and became this rock. This was, apparently, a reward....
The distant mountains, capped with snow
Looking back towards Siwash Rock
A small waterfall
The mountains from shore level
The Lions Gate Bridge
The Lions Gate Bridge from beneath
And once more, from the far side
We then took a path inland
We could have taken this one. We didn't
The forest paths were well maintained
And photogenic
Some of the trees were really tall.
On our way, we met a Squirrel
A Canada goose. Well, a goose.
The Lost Lagoon, a bird sanctuary
Another shot of the Lost Lagoon
Our slightly dubious sharing of the CA$49 internet connection
A shot from the top of the Harbor Center Tower Lookout Point
Shame about the weather
Its a fairly tall building
Towards the North shore
You can just see Stanley Park, where we went yesterday
Down the streets to the North
A closer look at the South East point of Stanley park
Canada Place, an interestingly shaped building
Vancouver is not a small place
I like the built up area on the horizon
Um, another picture of this part of the city. Guess I like it...
A photo to the East. You can see the Science Museum, a ball, near the centre of shot
Along the railway again
More Vancouver
Perspecitve
More perspective
Matt's camera taking a similar shot had just fallen over, hence the merriment...
A screenshot from the original Grand Theft Auto. No, wait...
Perspective in landscape
City in portrait
Think I was interested in the bridge in the centre of shot
Wow. This is a totally deep hole. Want to play 20 questions?
The weather cleared. Look, some skyline with blue sky...
We're really tall, in front of the Sheridan Wall
The skyline from the balcony
The Shridan Wall from the 11th floor
Matt doing maths. Many gestures are apparently involved...
Sunset from the window of our Suite
And again
Long exposure night shot from the same window, later
A bit further round
further round..
Last one. Pity about the reflection of the curtains
A series of shots from the balcony, again using long exposure and Gorillapod
Further round
You can see the Sheridan from here
Really like this shot
Some wildlife
Matt and the Science Museum
A crane convention?
'scuse me mate, is this the way to the Science Museum?
Matt and the rig for the photo
We're at the Science Museum, at an angle.
On leaving the weather had cleared a bit, giving a good view of the mountains
A garden in Chinatown
Right in the middle of the city
Its that building again
A misty view of the mountains
An inverted hurch. You don't see that every day.
A panorama from the front
and end.
A panorama from the Vancouver waterfront
Various rockfish swimming about
One fish, two fish
A bit bright perhaps?
A facehugger. No wait, a Sunflower Sea Star.
He went thattaway
A crab queueing peacefully
A Japanese Sea Nettle executing a backflip
The Japanese Sea Nettle. Like this shot. Apparently Ninja used to carefully dry and powder these. When thrown in your face they may cause you to sneeze. Threatening eh?
Ribboned Seadragons practice their cheerleading routine
The young of the Moon Jelly Jellyfish
A not that good shot of adult Moon Jelly jellyfish
A large shoal in the distance
Pull up!
Pity about the reflections
A dolphin leaving the surface
A spot of posing
I say, could you direct me to the bank please?
Two way dolphin traffic
A dolphin formation split
A dolphin flickbook
A dolphin comes over to say hello
Good comma impression you've got there
Stipey fish: Humbug dascillus. I'm not kidding.
Blue damselfish
A fish. With stripes
Shark!
Flying low to avoid radar
A pretty big fish
Two very very big fish
A really, really, really...
...big fish
He brakes for nobody
And there's two of them in there.
A Tiger Stingray, hiding.
A Pigmy Marmoset, in an Aquarium?
Didn't get this fella's name.
Hello there
A shoal of tiny blue fish
Northwest. Long exposure for car light trails
Northeast, towards the shore

Along downtown

We're quite high up...
