Homeless in Vancouver: Lookit the purdy photos my camera made!

      The photo above was one of several taken yesterday looking at  the north side of the Purdys Chocolatier building on the southwest corner of South Granville Street and 11th Avenue.

      What’s interesting isn’t what originally caught my attention at the time—the play of light and shadow on the vivid purple wall; that comes across a bit dull in the final photos. The most interesting thing, I think, is how the camera created the prismatic rays in response to the strong sunlight.

      Basically reality was too much for my plucky little adventure camera today but it tried hard to make up for its shortcomings.

      Who’s a good little camera?
