The Port Mann Bridge, looking northeast from Surrey, B.C., circa 1960s. Stood in the same spot yesterday, in the course of helping Sylvia document Every Bus Stop In Surrey, B.C.

Courtesy the Surrey Art Gallery:

"Formally, Borda's work is aligned with the practice of documentary photography, concerned with the careful choice and framing of its subject, and the image's composition of form and colour. But it is also conceptual photography, engaged with a critique of its own media and the history of photographic images. She is currently gaining an international profile for her images of the architecture of airports and mass transit facilities. Her recent explorations in digital technology offer her not only its capabilities for capturing and managing data, but also another architectural subject: the architecture of information."

A mixed day of sun and cloud spent with a rented Echo and a transit map. 100+ stops down, hundreds yet to go.
