Welcome World and All That Jazz

Is it frowned upon to sneak photos of strangers? (I wouldn't mind if they took pictures of me. I'm sure they did--in front of the Vancouver Art Gallery on Monday you couldn't walk two steps without getting in front of somebody's camera. In one case said camera belonged to NBC Anchorage. Well.) I won't make a habit of it. Really.




just ignore how I messed up the blurring, 'kay?















The Skytrain (and its strangers) was more interesting than the hype, but this round of Olympic Spirit vs. Kelsey's Cynicism ended in a draw. Apathy conquered. How Canadian.

  1. The guy in the second picture looks a bit like Tevye from "Fiddler on the Roof." :P Very nice pictures.

  4. Great pics! I'm getting a new camera this weekend, my first non-instamatic, so I'll be off and about, snapping random things. I need to learn how to use it before my trip to Africa in July.

  6. I would never have thought to pull a camera on some poor, unsuspecting stranger. Notice the abusive terminology; down here, I'm apt to get shot at if I tried snapping on anyone. Still, taking into consideration the lovelies you managed above, I might just run the risk of aforementioned shooting.
    Thought I disappeared? No such luck on your part. *grins* I decided to stalk you tonight and ponder what the cryptic abbreviations in your profile mean. Unless everyone knows but me, in which case it's...it's just me. Which is a depressing thought. In any event, good to see you stretching photography-horizons, as it were.
    I remember from IB your enthusiasm about "Les Miserables" and couldn't help but think of your comments towards it when I finished reading the book this afternoon. I have absolutely fallen in love with it and anything/everything related! If you know any resources, for goodness' sake tell me.

  8. Ditto what Proper Hannah says. (WHY do we always do the same things, Proper Hannah?)

  9. I guess we share more than a name.

    Lovely pictures, Kelsey! And they are VERY good! The blurring is fantastic!

    *sighs* You're so inspiring!
