The shot that wouldn't be...
Went to Lighthouse Park again with Santiago a friend I met here and coworker. I went to a different side of the park then I usually do today and found the most amazing view. The clouds parted just enough to show Mt Baker right behind downtown Vancouver. From where we were the rest of the view was blocked by trees. We hurried around to a pot we saw that had an unobstructed view of Downtown, the North Shore and the Lions Gate Bridge. The light was fading behind us so I headed off the path towards the water to see if I could grab one more shot. The sun set and the image I was chasing after was gone.
I will be back to take that shot once the rain stops and the clouds allow baker to show through again. The walk back to the car was long and difficult because we went off the actual path. Climbing over bushes, tress and up wet steep hill while lugging around camera gear is not fun. From now on I will try to stay on the path...
