Wandering around Gastown is the closest you’ll get to old Vancouver.

These are topping my list of favourite photoblogs at the moment: Jonathan Canlas: I’m a long time fan of the man behind the famous Film Is Not Dead workshops but lately he’s just been hitting it out of the park with a new book and his always informative formspring which he uses to answer photography [...]
