My parents with some of their friends from Japan were in town this weekend so I was busy playing chauffeur to their various needs. Setting up hotel rooms, renting a van, going to various tourist traps in Vancouver and such. I found it to be a nice break from my normal daily routine, although, I was totally wiped after spending time with them. Something about hanging with old people that completely drains me. I DID however find the time to take pics of cool piping and industrial things on the ferry over to Vancouver Island.
SO sexy. I'm amassing a huge bank of ref photos like this for use in future projects. One I have a good foothold in already. If any of you readers find anything along the lines of the above, snap a pic and send them my way. You may just see your finds in one of my pages;)
Otherwise, playing catch-up to all the work I didn't do during this past week. Yikes...

Far out. I love this type of stuff. I remember Jay Stephens doing an Atomic City Tales piece that was just a flying superhero with a couple of hydro poles and electical lines...

There's some pipes and industrial type things at my work. I'll take the digital camera and snap some pics for ya.
Later,

Hey Don,
That piece is nice. When I was in Japan last year, I went crazy with my camera taking pics of insane electrical wiring. Seriously INSANE.
Here's a taste:

The architecture was something else too.Can't wait to get back there.
I've pretty much exhausted cool industrial sites in Vancouver. GOtta remember to keep my eyes peeled next time I'm in Toronto;)
