very nice!

how did you know where the torch handover between bearers will occur? i didn't end up getting any shots of it. I am referring to today in Vancouver

They have markers along the route... yellow sticker on a lamp post at the location. Friend of mine did a segment starting at 41st & Nanaimo today...

I chased. I parked my car nearby the route and when the torch passed, I would run back to the car and speed through the backroads to get ahead of it again.

Here's some photos from Burrard and Pacific tonight

I tried to get some pictures at UBC tonight, but decided to do just video. There were too much people, too crowded, and the rain hit hardest when it passed by (I was standing where the trolley bus loop is)

I basically walked there, and ran to diagonally cut across to catch up with the flame again.. most running that I've ever done to take a photo..

I guess I'll post my Olympic pictures in here as well

That's a big joint.

Oh man I got a pretty good spot but waited for over an hour. It was completely packed.. and like you said the rain got me to put my 50D in a damn plastic bag :@ And I only got 3 good pics out of it :(

Oh and I was pretty choked on my way home on 10th and Blanca when the rain stopped haha

After Darthchilli, Kardboard and I failed at finding Linden, I continued to chase the torch anyways.

Probably got the most unflattering torch run picture lol, off a crappy blackberry phone

Anyone got pics of them carrying the torch on dragonboat and canoe?? Please post

Some I got from Richmond of my friend running with the torch.
