Brence and I spent a month visiting my folks in Canada over the recent Christmas and New Year’s holidays. We took a ba-zillion photos which I have yet to sort through properly, but I wanted to post a quick pick.

I took this of Brence riding the bus in Vancouver one cold rainy night. It was taken with a Canon IXUS point-and-shoot, on the ‘high’ ISO setting and quite a slow shutter speed – hence the fairly high image grain (let’s just call it an homage to Henri Cartier-Bresson)

I love the image colours and the raindrops on the windows – they evoke such an incredible moodiness.
