Circa Skate Pentathlon
This is what happens when Monster energy drinks sponsors shutting down the 800 block of Granville Street in Vancouver: an ollie competition.
Duck, Duck, Goose!
Goose on the right is whispering to goose on the left, "Psssst! Hey, do you ever get the feeling that you're being watched?"
Mirror, Mirror on the Boat
And they say it's just women who become preoccupied with admiring themselves in the rearview mirror while driving.... 
Up the Creek With a Paddle
This is a dude kayaking with a stylin hat, earphones, and a facial expression that is a product of listening to some tunes I assume. He reminds me of Otto, the bus driver from The Simpsons.
You Know Summer’s Coming When…
... you partake of the local golf driving range for the first time in the year. Below is a video sampling of my beginner-level initial hits of the season. I'm trying to shake the cobwebs both literally off my clubs and proverbially off my skills!
I Got It! Where’d Everybody Go?
Penticton's off-leash area by the lake is an excellent place to take the dog for a swim followed by a few rounds of catch in the adjacent park. I think Labrador here needs a new frisbee.
Float Like a Butterfly
This parachuter took full advantage of an afternoon filled with nothing but blue skies above the Pitt Meadows Airfield last Saturday.
Flying High
These guys caught me off guard in trying to get the right lens on my camera in time to get a half-decent photo while traveling down the highway past Hope. Apparently this is called aerotowing. The tow plane was likely towing the glider to the place and height where the glider pilot would have released the rope. I couldn't stick around long enough to confirm this is what happened though.
Wind-Powered Levitation
The gusts of wind were prevalent enough for this boater to catch some serious air in English Bay last weekend. It's only his rudder touching the water in this shot.
Vancouver Superdogs Material
Inspired by all the Superdogs shows I've seen at the Pacific National Exhibition, I had fun practicing some action shots of a dog I met at McLean Park on the weekend. Wally is a Golden Lab / Pitbull / Rhodesian Ridgeback mix that was adopted from the Vancouver pound. Between the slobber and the rain I needed a good towel off afterwards, as did Wally:
