I’ll say it made it very photographic:

A picture taken from above a river in the middle. A small boat dock in the bottom right with a ferry docked, near the left bank there's some boats docked, on the right bank there's some greenery and some tall buildings in the background. Further down the river, into a large opening there's multiple container ships and behind that is multiple hills.

Turns out I had beautiful nature in my backyard all along. These are the dunes just south of Katwijk, which is just a half hour bus ride from me.

A picture I took two weeks ago. You are looking at the river flowing through the small town I am living in.

A downtown Vancouver intersection on a foggy evening. Numerous pedestrians and a trolleybus can be seen crossing the street against the backdrop of skyscrapers and hot dog stands.

The snow was absolutely brutal as a first timer in a real winter but it was beautiful.

Car needed a run, so I drove to Risley Moss, a small nature reserve about 20 minutes from the center of Manchester.

A dirt path stretches through vibrant green woods. The blue sky is visible through the treetops, as leaves are only freshly beginning to bud as winter turns to spring.

Must have been about 15 years or so since I last visited, and in that time it’s barely changed. Of course, I have changed, so it comes with all of the usual baggage: it’s smaller than I remember, with the sounds of traffic on the motorway nearby ever present. Still, it was very pretty and spending time in an actual green space away from the city center was refreshing.

There was also this graffiti, featuring Bob and a figure who appears to be MF DOOM?

Photograph of some graffiti on a wall constructed of painted breeze blocks. It shows a figure wearing a shirt adorned with the moniker "Bob" standing before a giant head wearing a mask highly reminiscent of that worn by MF DOOM.

Not a walk, admittedly, but I was kicking the tires with Appa.

my bike on a portable railing in a parking lot; there's a school bus there, and Saputo Stadium on the right, and the Olympic Stadium on the left.

Honestly glad they’re finally doing something with it.

I still can’t get over how pretty it is even relatively close to residential areas. But I went on a bit of a bus trip into North-Vancouver and visited a dam.

Picture peeking through some bushes on the left and right of a snow-topped mountain in the distance. In front of it flowing hills with pine trees on top of it and a small lake near the photographer's position.

Picture of a large concrete dam's outlet. At the centre there's a white round metal gate that's closed with only small amounts of water leaking through. There's a walkway above it following the curve and some greenery surrounding the imaged structure.

It’s genuinely staggering for me, as someone from the Netherlands. That I can take an hour long public transport bus and get into something like this. I’ve had to cry at least once due to the realization hitting me that I have this kind of nature that I’ve always loved so close, instead of having to drive 13 hours and take a ferry to get to Norway or something similar. I also had to cry a few other times due to everything that’s happened to me in the past year and now being here of all places.

I got another new roll of B&W back from the shop, and I’m fairly happy with it
