Why?

"You know what this photo needs? A paperclip." said no one ever.

But I did it anyway.

Somewhere along the line in my life, I happened to be in possession of 76 paper clips and I was in Vancouver, Canada at the time. Instead of using them to clip paper, I found myself bending them into nonsensical shapes and thought if I could use them in some way to help me explore the city.

Consequently, I wandered, meandering my way from one interesting location to another, using paper clips as the subject of these mostly macro-based photos until they were all gone.

This, in turn helped me connect with areas that I probably would've ignored, start random conversations with officials, and collect many weird looks from locals.

Aaaand, that's that.
Enjoy.
