@aHeartSoFull Ironically, it used to happen when taking film snaps. I'd miss something when viewing my negs but, when using a fine grain focusser, I would find stuff that would making an 8x10 worthwhile 🙂.

@jack9simpson That has happened to me before too, not realizing until they are on the computer. I love it when that happens.

California Dragonflies 🦋 Fun fact: If you stand super still near one, it might dart away when startled… but it’ll often zip right back to the exact same perch. They’re creatures of habit when guarding their favorite hunting spot! Another cool one: Dragonflies are aerial acrobats — they can fly backward, hover like tiny helicopters, and catch prey with up to 95% success rate. Stick around till the end to see one devour a fly mid-air… it grabs its meal, mashes it up with those powerful jaws, and basically slurps it down like dragonfly chow! What’s your favorite dragonfly moment? Drop it below! 👇 More of my Wildlife & Nature photos here → tinaquillenphotography.com #Dragonflies #CaliforniaNature #WildlifePhotography #InsectHunters

@aHeartSoFull That's for sure, ending wise, Tina, and, truth be told, I never noticed the dragonfly until that evening when I was going through/culling my snaps.

@jack9simpson Haha, nope it sure didn't end well, however, you did manage to capture it and that's a big plus.

@ChelseaBeach @ianhanomansing Are you planning a 10th anniversary event? You should invite Mr. Hanomansing :)

@jack9simpson @ianhanomansing 2016. Thank you.

The Guess Who wasn't just a great Canadian band. Their music, lyrics and performances make them one of the greatest rock bands, period. I got the terrific opportunity to watch Burton Cummings and Randy Bachman rehearse and interview them for tonight's National (and on YouTube).

@ChelseaBeach A cracking shot, Debbie. You, definitely, have a great R&R eye :)

@jack9simpson Billy Duffy

@ChelseaBeach Brilliant and I like how you got someone's camera in the photo, as well 🙂

@jack9simpson Ian Astbury San Diego

@ChelseaBeach @ianhanomansing Ta, Debbie .. much appreciated 🙂

@jack9simpson @ianhanomansing Great shots!

@Wpg_Nana A great actress and did you ever see the documentary of Ms. Smith and three other great actresses -- "Tea With the Dames" or, in some areas it was titled "Nothing Like a Dame" -- If you've never seen it, see it. If you have, what did you think of it?

May she rest in peace

@ChelseaBeach @ianhanomansing How ironic, eh and when was the San Diego photo taken ? That is a cracking shot of Mr. Rose 😀

@jack9simpson @ianhanomansing So young there. I saw them in San Diego where The Cult opened for them!

@ChelseaBeach Yowza 😮, that photo is the dogs danglies, Debbie 👌

@jack9simpson Axl in San Diego (from the rail in pit).

@ChelseaBeach @ianhanomansing I loved going to the racetrack and taking snaps of the bettors, but, only went once or twice ☹️ and, went, but, once, to the bands at the PNE, @TheBeachBoys ,

@jack9simpson @ianhanomansing South of the PNE. Lived on Renfrew in Wpg.

@KevinRollason @WinnipegNews A homage to Mr. Cantafio's success ... the Winnipeg Fury winning the 1992 Canadian Soccer Championship in Vancouver, BC .. snaps taken for the @wpgfreepress by moi ... my condolences to the Cantafio family and the Winnipeg Soccer community ☹️

Ralph Cantafio was a tailor - and the father of modern soccer in Canada. He founded the Winnipeg Fury, was a leader of the Manitoba and Canadian Soccer Associations, was inducted into Halls of Fame, and has a soccer complex named for him #RIP @WinnipegNews passages.winnipegfreepress.com/passage-detail…

@narrativelens @JohnGetchel Hi Cam, I was back from March 7th to March 11th holed up in one of the Sylvia Hotel's 'closets' 😀, but, living in Winnipeg for now :)

@jack9simpson @JohnGetchel Thanks Jack! Are you back in Vancouver?

Photographing the photographer. Let's see your shot of a photographer taking a shot. 😁

@narrativelens @JohnGetchel Beauty, Mr. Wood, and I agree 100% 🙂

@JohnGetchel Salish Rock on the left, along the seawall in Vancouver & two happy photographers. I prefer my photo over his - :) @narrativelens

@mainlymono Very cool photo, Paul 👏

(Flipped) Mirror Selfie

@ChelseaBeach @ianhanomansing Oh, and, speaking of Guns & Roses, Debbie, or, as I call them, Gnus & Sores 😉. A few snaps I took of them when they opened for the Cult in 198?

@ChelseaBeach @ianhanomansing Every time I visited Wpg, it was like coming home and when I returned to Van, it was just coming back to work and the placed I lived. I just never got that 'homey' feeling from Vancouver🤔. OOC, what brought you and has kept you in East Van ( a very cool hood, as well :)

@ChelseaBeach @ianhanomansing Near the Drive(?) and I lived in the 400 block of Oxford for a time being ..

@jack9simpson @ianhanomansing East Van & River Heights.

@ChelseaBeach @ianhanomansing I just moved back to Winnipeg, Debbie, from Vancouver (West End 1992 to 2009 - Gastown 2009 to 2023), where do you hang your hat in YVR and where did you hang it in YWG?

@ianhanomansing Great interview! Thank you, Ian. Being from Winnipeg (now Vancouver) I am so proud of Randy & Burton. Saw them at the PNE in Van. a few years ago. Used to live in the same neighbourhood as Burton in Wpg & would run into him at Safeway. This concert will be amazing.
