YES, I STILL TAKE PICTURES…

Wednesday, December 22nd, 2010

I have been shooting a fair amount recently but just haven’t been keeping the blog up to date with my work. Just more a general lack of interest in spending more time on the computer than absolutely necessary. Anyways, here are some shots from on top of Grouse Mountain I did the other day for the Globe and Mail. Got to whiz around on a ski-doo all over Grouse, it was a tough day for sure!!!

DOWNTOWN EASTSIDE.

Wednesday, November 3rd, 2010

I was sent down to Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside to shoot some photos for the Globe & Mail the other day, and ended up meeting up with Vancouver PD constable Sherman Soo as he was walking the beat. While I was following Sherman, all I could think about was my favourite TV show The Wire. The dealers, the fiends, the cops, everything is constantly going down and although at times depressing and saddening, it is a fascinating part of our city.

JESSICA DUNKLEY.

Wednesday, September 22nd, 2010

A shot from a while ago which appeared in page A4 in today’s Globe & Mail. She was a very cool person to get a chance to meet and a true inspiration. The article is here: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/british-columbia/skilled-interpreter-shortage-presents-hurdle-in-deaf-mds-quest-to-become-dermatologist/article1717651/

HST HITS RESTAURANTS.

Wednesday, August 4th, 2010

I can say that judging by the bills I have had with the new tax, we in BC are definitely paying a lot more to eat out these days. (As if this province needed to get any more expensive.) I still don’t understand how Colin Hansen and the BC Libs can try to tell people we are saving money.

CELEB CHEF ANTHONY SEDLAK.

Tuesday, August 3rd, 2010

I got up early on Monday morning last week and got rewarded with some nice light to shoot near Lynn Canyon in North Vancouver.  Shot with my 35mm 1.4 and a 45mm TS-E.  Two of my all-time favourite lenses.

DOLHPINS & WHALES, OH MY.

Tuesday, July 20th, 2010

Took a trip to the Aquarium yesterday to photograph the whales and dolphins for the front of the Globe’s BC section.  I am kind of stuck on the issue, I don’t think those tanks are any place for these amazing animals but I guess a lot of them have been born in captivity and couldn’t survive in the wild.  Still, it’s kind of heartbreaking to see them in there. Coincidentally, I was just reading this article: http://outside.away.com/outside/culture/201007/killer-whale-behavior-trainer-death-seaworld.html in Outside magazine (I usually read it every month.)  It’s worth a read, and outlines a lot of what has happened with killer whales in aquariums.  Sad stuff.

July 19, 2010 -  Vancouver, BC – Visitors watch as a Pacific white-sided dolphin swims at the Vancouver Aquarium on Monday.  Vancouver’s park commissioners voted Monday night to reject a motion urging a non-binding plebiscite concerning the whale and dolphin exhibits at the city’s aquarium for next year’s civic election.
