About this Gallery
A visual insight into the Vancouver personality.
Vancouver is known as a picturesque city but I feel these images capture a genuine view and impression of the city. Of course it is just one layer of the onion. But I like the freshness, the hope, the feeling of bounty and beauty, the ruggedness.
I've borrowed a few images with permission to create this gallery.
