Day three, four, five and six of photography challenge

So I fell a little behind with my blog posts photographs. Here are all the pictures that I have taken in the last few days correlating with the challenge.

Day 3: Clouds
Day 3: Clouds

There are two pictures of clouds here because I could not decide which one I liked best. Clouds are one of my favourite things to capture. Every cloud tells a story. The first picture you will notice the big grey cloud looming over the edmonds/22nd street area. What you do not know is that I had spent the day downtown enjoying the lovely weather, however, when I arrived in Burnaby via sky train it had begun to snow. As I cam upon 22nd street station the sun was out and it was beautiful. So in the picture you see two separate areas not far from each other experiencing two different types of weather. 

My second picture was also taken near 22nd street sky train, but facing a different direction. I love the texture and layers associated with this cloud.

Day 4: Something Green
My challenge for day three was to take a picture of something green. It would have been easy to take a picture of a plant, tree, or grass but I thought this ceramic frog was more fun. This was something I took from my father's place after he passed. It has been in my life for as long as I can remember.

Day 5: From a high angle
Day 5: From a high angle
Again, two pictures. The first one is the top floor through a window at the Vancouver public library. Down below you can see carts filled with books, and I love that you can see people in the windows reading or studying.

The second picture is in Granville station looking down the enormous escalator there. If you've been to Vancouver guaranteed you know which escalator I am talking about. You know the one that feels like it takes five minutes to get up.
Day 6: From a low angle
This picture is also taken at Vancouver public library but outside. Staring at the building I noticed it's structure and it reminded me of the coliseum in Rome. My friend pointed out that it is actually called the coliseum and it was modelled after the one in Rome. Well I guess they got the right point across then. I just think this is such a beautiful building.
