It’s a bird, it’s a plane! No, actually, it’s a Beaver! A de Havilland Beaver to be exact 😉
Canadian made, and in production until 1967 – yes, you read that right, 1967. The Canadian Centennial. The year of my birth. Planes built in the 1960’s are still in widespread use as commuter and bush planes all over North America. They are reliable, functional, and fabulously fun to get around in.
I love living on the coast, and I love living in a port city. Even more, I love that my work takes me to meetings on Vancouver Island and that some days I can opt to use this mode of transportation rather than a ferry, and that taking this mode of transportation is easy because it is only two blocks from my office.
Ahhhh, Vancouver, how I love thee!

I love your take on the subject, quite envious actually. The colours appeal to me, especially that little ping of red on the right. Well done you.

You got a great job!
Nice capture! Paige
I like travel to the island too.
Too bad the ferry is just expensive ….
Happy weekend!

Only managed to spend a couple of days in Vancouver about 6 years ago. I envy you having that city to photograph. :-}
