Ricepaper magazine, the Vancouver literary and cultural quarterly aimed at Asian Canadians and those who presumably wish they were, has launched Ricepaper Shutterbox, a three-times-a-week posting of photographs taken by staff, local photographes and sometimes readers.

"If you have any photos that you feel would fit the blog and inspire us, send them our way! (photo@ricepapermagazine.ca) By showcasing the creative, diverse talents of our community, we hope to visually immerse you in culture and challenge notions of what it means to be Asian Canadian."
