Photos from the V3H on Flickr

February 1, 2010 By Jon Leave a Comment

We live in one of the most beautiful places on earth. Pinched between the mountains and the sea, there is ample opportunity to take out the camera and capture some of the wonder that is all around us. We are quite lucky here at theV3H.com to have a vibrant Flickr group where people have been generous enough to share their pictures of the Tricities with all of us.

For the uninitiated, Flickr is the largest photo sharing site in the world, where you can share pictures with family and friends, as well as with public groups. Our public group on Flickr is called, wait for it… The V3H. Anyone can join and add pictures to the group, and there are some stunning photos in there to enjoy.

I’ve made a page now in the top menu of theV3H.com, to make it a little easier to see the slideshow of the photos that people have added to the group.

Thank you to all our group members, it’s great of you to share your incredible work. If you’ve got pictures to share, and with the Winter Olympics there will be plenty of photo opportunities, please join us at the Flickr group, we’d love to have you!

City of Port Moody – Call for Photographers

July 20, 2009 By Sarah Leave a Comment

Since the advent of theV3H.com, we have had a Flickr Group for people to share photos of our beautiful corner of Metro Vancouver. The City of Port Moody also knows of the plethora of talented shutterbugs in the area, and have launched a photo contest. Here’s your chance to get your photos published in the 2010 Port Moody Calendar, which is distributed to all Port Moody residents and businesses. The calendar is a handy reference so you know which garbage/recycling/green bin to put out when, so you know your photo would grace many kitchen walls throughout the V3H. The photo specs they are looking for are:

at least 300 DPI resolution
at least 3,300 pixels wide by 2,550 pixels tall.

All photos will be credited to their photographer. Just drop off a CD of the photos at Port Moody City Hall to the attention of the Communications Department, or mail to

Communications Department – City of Port Moody

PO Box 36, 100 Newport Drive,

Port Moody, BC

V3H 3E1

If you wish to have your CD of pictures returned, please provide a complete mailing address along with your submission. The deadline to submit your pictures is September 11th, 2009, so get out there and start snapping away! For more information visit the City of Port Moody Website.
