2009 Chinese New Years Parade in Vancouver : 2009 is the year of the Ox! This year, the Chinese New Years Parade in Vancouver was held on Sunday, February 1st. The Parade started at the Millennium Gates on Pender Street and wound its way through Chinatown. There were over 2500 participants in the parade and the streets were jammed with people out to see this colourful event. And this despite it being a miserable, cold, rainy (and sometimes snowy) day! All in all it was a colourful day of street photography with lots of good energy!

Images edited with Topaz Adjust : I bought the Topaz Adjust filter for Photoshop Elements this winter and have been playing with it ever since. Not everyone is a fan of filter effects but I just love what Topaz Adjust can do to landscapes and city scenes. It gives you some amazing controls over exposure, colour and details.

I am just learning how to use it and have found several communities of photographers online that are using Topaz Adjust and loving it as much as I do.

If you are interested in knowing more about this filter, their website is at: http://www.topazlabs.com/adjust/

****You can see the effect of the filter best by clicking on the Slideshow button in the top right corner******

This was my first visit to the beautiful Barton & Leier Gardens and Gallery in Yellowpoint. Grant Leier and Nixie Barton, 2 local artists have created the most wonderful gardens around their gallery and have decorated them with many "unique" and interesting items. A visual feast for photographers!
