Lansdowne Carnival

Just asked a friend to tag along for some photos in Richmond. Testing some new gears out! Remembered coming here last year, but it was a lot more warmer this spring. The carnival is something we have here every spring break. I don’t find the rides too exciting, but then again I am not a big fan of them anyway. Just there to take some shots for fun haha

Just want to share with you on some sick rides I saw today at the meet. Enjoy!

My new ride

Bought a scooter since I need something to go around town when my car is on jack stands. Might have plans for engine swap and other goodies but we’ll see. Don’t need another money pit right now and since my brother is partially an owner, I won’t be driving it as much.

And a quick snap :)

PS: I’ll be out of town from Aug 15-24. You can contact me via email or sms. Call me if it’s urgent. Thanks!

My own Spring Break

Been through a lot lately. Things were picking up and I was busy shooting again. I was stressed out a bit lately so I thought “hey, I should just take a break and drive and shoot around.” So I took a day off work (and by that I mean NO work at all). I went to White Rock early for an early brunch, then went to Steveston and chilled for a while. I then went out for a coffee with my laptop in the evening.

When I went home, I said this to myself: “I need to do this more often.” I’ve been shooting quite a bit since last summer and haven’t really been stopping down till early Feb of this year. Things picked up again during May and I realized that I’ve never really fully relaxed myself when I had free time. It was quite a eye opener to myself.

I had been shooting so much paid work at a point where I was a little scared that I was doing it just to pay the bills. I took a step back and realized that I was pushing myself forward so much that I wasn’t enjoying life all that much. Now picking up the camera is now an enjoyment again :)

Enjoy the photos :)
