5:00AM - Woke up 6:00AM - Arrived at Edwin, my friend's place. Off to Burnaby Lake 7:00AM - Shoot! No sunrise, what a waste of time (not)! It was another assignment from my photo class. However, this time, it's in film. Of course, if I'm going, I would bring my dSLR with me. So off we go, thinking we could catch the sunrise... except there isn't any. Although Edwin and I were disappointed, it wasn't all that bad considering that the weather report says it will be raining. The day became even better when a couple came by to feed the geese/birds.

I spend my winters working (and playing, of course) as a snowboard/ski photographer, providing...

The undead walked the streets of Vancouver last Saturday. Police watched helplessly. The apocalypse was happening… Or maybe not. On August 15, thousands dressed up as zombies to walk the streets of Vancouver starting from the south side of Vancouver Art Gallery (did I mention that place was double booked?!). The madness continued when the zombies “attached” buses and tourist vehicles. More pictures after the jump.

StarTrek Zombies?!

Scary looking guy.

Huston. We got a problem. *over

I did mention they were attacking the buses right?
