John Preston, 9 May 2006, 2006

A portrait of my bookseller friend and co-conspirator John Preston, of New Westminster's Renaissance Books, on the MV Spirit of Vancouver, en route to a collection of 140 boxes (!!!) of science fiction and fantasy pocket books in scenic Sidney-by-the-Sea, 10 minutes from the ferry terminal. Going back today for the other half of the collection that wouldn't fit in John's van.

A kind of gloss on Tolagson's Fleet pictures; ever since seeing them I've wanted to make an "art photograph" set on a BC Ferry. Hundreds of bad pictures, but nothing worth keeping until yesterday.

The camera's memory card packed up and died in the course of transferring the sequence of mostly (non-art) images accompanying this picture. 10pm-4am last night at the store, installing patches, new DLL libraries, etc. Home near dawn, birds singing in the trees!
