On the run

A selection of photos snapped on the run during a busy week. I am relatively happy with these.

Every day this week, they have forecast sunshine for the following day. We're still waiting, here in the fog.

Snow fell heavily throughout the day in Vancouver Saturday, but it didn’t stop between 400 and 500 people rallying outside the Vancouver Art Gallery to protest Israel’s attacks on Hamas in Gaza.

More of my photos from the rally, and a small counter-demonstration, are at my Flickr site.
