Head in the Clouds
Nanaimos city workers do such a nice job landscaping in the spring and summertime. I mean, they probably do it all year but I really appreciate the work they put in to make Downtown beautiful in the summer months. It makes my job as a photographer so much easier. These tulips popped beautifully from the garden bed surrounding the clock. In the background I noticed two women frolicking in the fallen cherry blossom petals and taking iPhone selfies. I had a feeling they might ask me to take a picture of them. This is a common occurrence when you walk around with a DSLR. Sure enough they did. I felt a bit antisocial at first but I took a moment to evaluate the light and scenery and decided that I could offer them a few really nice portraits with a real camera rather than the iPhone they were using.
