 Taken at the olympic oval in Richmond. These are actually bike stands/locks in case anyone is wondering.

OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. My first ribbon !!!! Hip Hip Horray I got my first SLR in January of this year. A big thanks goes to rmezzo and a few others for getting me into this whole SLR thing and showing me the ropes. I absoulutley love this new hobby. Other than the costs of all the lens LOL LOL LOL :)Still cheaper than playing poker in the casinos. I look foward to some more ribbons and hopefully meeting some DPers in the near future. I plan on going to NY in October so if anyone wants to show me the ropes out there let me know. Thanks to everyone for all the comments. I appreciate any tips people can give me.

Big shout out to all my fellow Canadians and Portuguese brothers here on DP challenge.

Keep up the great work everyone and if anyone is visiting Vancouver feel free to drop a line for a custom photo tour.

Really nice - is it a bike stand? Obviously a long exposure and I like the radiance of the light in the background.
