I called this place Jurassic Farm.... because of giant egg rocks we found, but it is actually called abundance farm. Poking around in Agassiz, BC. ⠀ Image (c) William Jans, Vancouver BC⠀ ⠀⠀ #williamjans #farmlife #nature #hiking #outdoors #beautifulbc #viewpoint #walking #outdoors #fallcolours #fallcolors #canada #photography #vancouverphotographer #instagood #instaphoto #instadaily ⠀ (at Agassiz, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpgRScBBP-D/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1vo1rw2k79qed

Excited to now be commissioned to do the land photos of this awesome site where thousands of cars are brought in on giant "Ro-ro" Ships. I have done aerial photos here often, but looking forward to being on ground level for the first time documenting the site and staff. ⠀ ⠀ #aerialphotography #vancouverphotographer #advertisingphotography #professionalphotographer #vancouver #aerial #helicopter #williamjans #annacisisland (at Annacis Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoaY3-qAkr9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=166wj4seb3e6z

So thrilled. Deltaport just before sundown. So close to losing light really paid off. I am sure the client will like these. Even a rainbow in the mist of the coal sprayers. Coal is not exactly the "pot of gold" most hope for, but I am sure pleased it appeared. Shot May 5, 2018 by while I was flopping about the sky with the doors off in a helicopter.⠀ ⠀ #vancouverphotographer #aerialphotography #aerial #airphotography #helicopter #drone #williamjans #advertisingphotography #industrialphotography (at GCT Deltaport)

PLOPP!!! Love it. Best name for a chocolate bar ever! I am so lucky to have great friends around the world - this just came shipped in from Sweden. Ulf in Sodertalje, is a loony guy I met in Burma in 1995 and we stayed friends ever since. He has even been in some of my Travel Shows too (Burma Bound, Trekking in Tibet, Off the Wall in China, and A man A plan Japan). I dont think any other single person has been in my shows as often. He is a hoot and we laugh at the same things. For some odd reason something developed where I would always refer to him as fat in sentences where that made no sense (he is not fat by the way)... like "did you buy a computer, or were you too fat?", "Did you like the movie or are you too fat?" Anyway that has devolved back and forth and makes us laugh. I have to be nice now so he will keep sending me these amazing BILAR candies. Wow they are so good. I think they beat out Haribo x3 even. Yum. Wow-yum. ⁠⠀what does plopp even mean or do I want to know? ⁠⠀ #candy #bilar #sweden #sweettooth #williamjans. #plopp https://www.instagram.com/p/CJrWCAMs31-/?igshid=xvfrf3llt9he

Departing the remote Engaruka area of the Massai Steppe in Tanzania by "Dala Dala" bus. 18 passengers I think, and 5 goats.

You are GOING TO PAY if you ride this bus! This was ONE of the great named vehicles on the Massai Steppe in Tanzania. ⁠I absolutely promise all the names here were busses I saw on that July / August 2007 trip:⁠⠀ "Mr. Handsome"⁠⠀ "We Trust in Allan"⁠⠀ "Who Likes Mom"⁠⠀ "Not me, It's God"⁠⠀ "God is Power and Microsoft"⁠⠀ "Superman Digital Movement, but Trust in God"⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ When I transited out, I didn't get a great named bus, but we did fill this same sized vehicle with a load of 18 people (as I recall) and 5 goats...⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #transport #funsign #busses #bus #canadianabroad #williamjans #masstransit #smallbus #remotetravel⁠⠀ #tia #africa #tanzania #busnames #funenglish #english⁠⠀ (at Engaruka, Arusha, Tanzania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJSFA99sMZZ/?igshid=14q11gxlqjyp3

April 27, 2014 - "Roller Zoku" guys in Tokyo's "Yoyogi Park." Super fun guys who dance every Sunday for fun. They are not collecting money, they are just rocking out. I planned to see these guys well before I arrived in Japan and it took some effort. So worth it! I spent a good part of the afternoon there watching then slowly starting to take photos. I am so pleased to have befriended them enough that they offered me a beer. I dont drink but how could I say no!, so after my one beer I was pretty comically buzzed. One of my best travel memories ever with this guys and being "blotto" at 3 pm on a Sunday in Tokyo. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #yoyogipark #tokyoculture #rockabilly #thestrangers #dance #pointyshoes #rockandroll #williamjans (at Yoyogi Park 代々木公園, Yoyogi Kōen) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIjykAFhdbQ/?igshid=u1we94v6sd4h

Choosing the right FUGU with wonderful Motomi Kumura in Asakasa, Tokyo, Japan. FUGU is pufferfish and was a notorious poisonous fish served raw that could kill you. The trick for Fugu sushi chefs was to leave just a bit of toxins in to have you "tingle" a bit, but not kill you. It used to be in the old days that if 20 people went out for Fugu 1 might die. That was a long time ago, now if you have a restaurant that kills someone, you will be closed immediately (no surprise there!) Also, now in the last decade at least, the toxins are not really part of the "meal" anymore... meaning now it is more cool to have it based on the history, but the "buzz" and the huge risk, are far lesser. Sorry Homer Simpson.... "Fugu Me" just does not have the meaning it used to. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Once COVID lifts, I hope to host my A MAN A PLAN JAPAN show again sometime (maybe even at the New Hollywood Theatre) and hope you will come.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Thanks so much to Motomi for showing me some of the wonders of this area! Just loved it.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #Japan #amanaplanjapan #hollywoodtheatre @hollywoodtheatre #williamjans #fugu #pufferfish #dangerousfood #dangerous (at Asakusa Market Tokyo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CId6R-vhlS_/?igshid=85qxehf7ct17

The last few stragglers hamming it up on request from a seminar I did for the Great folks at the Surrey Photo Club on November 9. Yahoo. So fun - thanks so much for bringing me on board. Really enjoyed the experience. I am late to post this, but it is now so we can reminisce on these "good old times" back in November 2020. Ha!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #seminar #zoom #phototips #professionalphotography #professionalphotographer #williamjans #surreyphotoclub #surreyphoto https://www.instagram.com/p/CIRgWJZh1--/?igshid=17gebjkkiwltw

How fun. I am so pleased to get subscribers like "Av. Ceren Oner" whom I think is in Sweden or Norway? Looks like she has some heavy hitters in there based on their subscriber count. I am only at 779 subscribers, but excited to be getting closer to 1000 so I can get my ad revenue back. I hope you like the 60 some odd fun videos I have now, more to come too! Thanks for subscribing too! Love ya!!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #youtube #williamjans #funny #travel #youtubesubscribe #join #subscribe https://www.instagram.com/p/CDr8GGiByD5/?igshid=9e49zimblstn
