I got off work tonight later than usual, but right in time to see a huge crowd of Canucks’ fans heading over to the game – the first game of the Stanley Cup play offs. Hooray! Sadly, as I type this, the Canucks JUST lost 3-1 to the San Jose Sharts. Stinkin’ Sharts. We’ll get them next time!

After the battery died on my cell phone on the skytrain today, I took out my camera and tried to figure out how to apply the double exposure feature right on my camera! Cool! I found this tutorial (via pinterest) and it’s for a Canon (I use a Nikon) but I thought I could figure it out somehow.

I didn’t take time to take too many photos when I first got there because I was on a mission to get to the career fair. And I got there. That was a great career fair for VFX studios and some mobile gaming companies. I shook hands and met a few people I had worked with before, so it was good to connect. I have plenty of follow up to do on Monday. This is good news!
After all the handshaking, I took out my trusty camera and took photos of the people in costumes. Like these people:
