Artist's Description
For once, Vancouver was forecast to get snow, and snow arrived! About three to four inches fell overnight and continued on through the morning.
With rain forecast in the afternoon, I knew my best chance would be to set the alarm to go off well before sunrise, so at 5:30 I struggled out of bed and headed out.
I walked over to Gastown, passing a few cars that managed to get stuck in the conditions, although in general there was very little traffic, even for that time in the morning. The snow was still falling in tiny flakes that sting your eyes.
This is Abbott Street in Gastown, taken from Water Street just before 7:00am this morning. With the fine flakes of snow blowing all around in the wind, keeping the front of the lens clear of snow in these conditions was driving me crazy!
About Alexis Birkill
Born in the UK, I moved to Vancouver, BC in 2011. My career in photography has grown from a long-held passion for capturing the beauty of the world, aided on the technical side by my background as a software developer. I specialise in fine art photography of landscapes, seascapes and cityscapes in and around the Pacific Northwest, with work exhibited internationally. Many of my photographs feature the beautiful city of Vancouver, but as well as capturing its iconic cityscapes, I can often be found exploring the BC and Washington coastline for new photographic opportunities, as well as developing my portfolio of night sky photographs featuring the Milky Way and the Aurora Borealis.
