Another of my “night shoots”, this time I visited Vanier Park. Meanwhile on the way I “window-shopped” the collection of car dealerships around Burrard Street and West 1st Avenue, right on the boundary of Vancouver’s Fairview and Kitsilano neighbourhoods.

That inaccessibility also meant that nobody test drove it. That suited me just fine!
