LightImages	Photography by Alan Thurston

December 4, 2007	Ok I had a bit of a break... I'm back with some new images from around town here and here. Photographing in the city has always been one of my passions. Whether it be the people, the buildings, or just stuff, the city offers a great variety of forms and textures, lines and shapes, shadow and light.
April 26, 2007	Sometimes all you need are photographs. Sometimes all you need are words. Sometimes photographs and words together are needed. That's why there is photojournalism. I recently visited Vancouver's Downtown East Side. This is some what I saw and some of what I felt.
March 21, 2007	Added some more images from Victoria and Vancouver. Victoria had a few days of snow this year. A rare chance to capture wintery scenes in an otherwise green city. There is a wonderful poem called The People Yes by the American poet Carl Sandburg. You can find an excerpt here. I have finally added some images of people.
March 2, 2007	Added some images of the seashore around The British Columbia coast. I live in Victoria on the southern tip of Vancouver Island. Canada's west coast is dotted with small coastal communities. There are many pleasure yachts, but I am drawn more to the working vessels and "retired" boats.
February 21, 2007	Added some more pinhole images from around Victoria.
February 2, 2007	Added some black and white images from Victoria and Vancouver.
February 1, 2007	Added a gallery of images from The Palouse in Eastern Washington State. The rolling dunes of this agricultural land make for some of the most seductive landscape photography anywhere.
January 19, 2007	Added some images to the gallery The Land. I've been playing with  digital panoramas. Theres one of Mount Baker in this gallery. I wlll be adding more from time to time.
January 10, 2007	Added another poem - Ferns - with photographs.
	Added a slide show to one of the poems.
Jan 7, 2007	Added a gallery of pinhole photographs.
