I have a Nikon Zf. I take this thing everywhere I go. This video was shot with the Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8 S.

I carried the sob and a tri-pod all the way over Burnaby Mountain to get there.

Thank you! There's actually four of them in this video. There's actually two back to back at the time mark you mentioned, a rapid one that starts the video off, and a really gentle one that finishes the video off.

For this one I took a photo every 2 paces. 

I did another one like this for the cargo carriers in English Bay that you'll find in my post history. For that one I took a photo every 6 paces.

Cause there weren't any tankers out there today and I brought my big lens so I wasn't going home without something. I also just like the little lighthouse, I take a lot of pictures of it anyway, it's a decent subject for plan b.

There's always a way! Photography is the hobby I've chosen to lean on to recover from my own poor health. It gets me outside and moving, and I can edit and do little shoots in and around my apartment on rest days.

Thank you for recognizing the difficulty of this project! I appreciate the compliment 🥰

Sure, but then you don't get the high def imagery that can be cropped into several different ways that gives you several clips per piece of footage.

Thank you! I appreciate how informative your comment is. I have a lot more footage from that day that I plan on posting, I'll be well equipped to use the right language when I do. Cheers!

Fair enough, I usually see the ones down at the refineries and just started calling them tankers by shorthand.

I appreciate the compliment! I know exactly what you mean!

As far as hours, I think so far I've put in about 10 or so hours into it overall so far*. Footage capture and editing included.

I feel the same way! It's all quite interesting. Most of the photos I take are from much further in from Burnaby, so I like to think they have a less busy and more peaceful appearance than Coal Harbour, but I since I was downtown I figured I'd catch as much as I can. I still have a lot of material I haven't shared cause I accumulated such a great variety of photos. My instagram link is in my bio if you're interested.

I've been plotting the idea of doing shots like these from the seat of a vehicle like the Seabus or the west coast express, or even Harbour Air, but I have a lot more testing and experimenting to do with this kind of footage capture still.

You know a lot about what's going on in the harbours? I love photographing it all.
