OLYMPIC TORCH RELAY IN VANCOUVER.
Saturday, February 13th, 2010

I shot the Olympic Torch Relay for a corporate client on its final day yesterday as it came down Broadway in Vancouver. It was so cool to see so many kids and families out celebrating. Despite everyone’s thoughts about the many issues surrounding the Olympics and how it will affect Vancouver for some time to come, it was great to see everyone together showing their national pride. I had a bit of tough job running along with the torch (other photogs were in a truck in front of the torch-runners) as the Olympic torch-protector guys made it clear I was not supposed to be running along with them, but managed to get off a couple of good shots before it was over.
