Yes, I hope in one day I could come to have AN EVENING IN VANCOUVER face to face, moving from the screen to the actual world. As far as I know, VANCOUVER is a beautiful city with happy people. So, the photos have given us a good snapshot what we would enjoy there..... Best wishes for you all with wonderful time and memory in Leica photography journey.
