Oof. I stayed home today with a nasty sore throat and stupid throbby headache. I have been drinking gallooons of tea and will soon have some zupe for dinner. I feel like I’m missing out staying home. There’s so much going on these days with the Olympix, I can’t bare to miss a thing. I’ve got packages to mail out tomorrow and there’s a Canada Pavilion on Hastings Street that’s free to visit for this week only! I have to get back to work tomorrow. I just have to!

On the plus side, I did have some time today to try out some different ways to change and enhance my lantern photos I took yesterday in Chinatown. Usually I don’t like the high contrast look, but I think it worked out nicely for these photos.

This photo wasn’t taken in the lantern room, but in another room where they had a shrine set up decorated with red cyclamen. It’s very tidy.

More lanterns below…
