This was Maria and Amanda’s first time [...]

In my 8 years that I’ve lived in Vancouver I had yet to visit VanDusen Botanical Gardens. I had always wanted to get my camera and walk around the 55 acres and just go crazy, but never just got off my butt and just went. It’s interesting to note that the lands was the Shaughnessy [...]
Yes folks, the MO is now 27 days old. 27 days of growing facial hair from scratch (ignore the fact that I had a goatee and shaved it all off).

Alas [...]

Remember Gus, use a tripod, that is if you have one!
If you can use a shutter release you set the camera to ‘Bulb’ via the shutter speed and then you just manually click the shutter, wait for a few seconds, and close it
As for focus, you can try and manually focus the camera to the spot where the fireworks are, or try and set it to infinite focus.
We believe we can see if from our balcony so I’m going to try it! If not, next week we’re doing a firework cruise!
