ALONE IN PARIS

SHADOWS

THE DARK SIDE OF STREET PHOTOGRAPHY

I took this photo shortly after the car had hit the pedestrian. I hope that she will survive the ordeal.

WHILE DOING MY FIRST "SUN RUN " ( OVER 50,000 ATTENDED) I CAME ACROSS THIS VEHICLE AND JUST HAD TO STOP TO PHOTO IT AND FOUND THE OWNER SITTING INSIDE. SUGGEST YOU CLICK ON THIS PIX TO BRING IT UP SHOWING THE AMAZING DETAIL.

AN HOUR IN DOWNTOWN VANCOUVER

A SLOW DAY

ONE MAN SHOW

COUNT-DOWN CLOCK FOR 2010 OLYMPICS

TIME REFLECTION

This police officer was injured on the job, I have no further info at this time. I always had a reputation of being around when things happen, I was only a block away at the time.

DRIVE BY VANCOUVER STREET SCENE.

OUT OF THE CLOUDS

WILLIAM PICKTON - ALLEGED MURDER OF 26 EAST SIDE WOMEN OF VANCOUVER. (presumed innocent at this time) THIS IS DAY ONE OF THE ONE YEAR TRIAL. I TOOK THESE PHOTOS IN HEAVY RAIN WONDERING AMONG BIG TIME PRESS PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER. I WAS ABLE TO KEEP MY CAMERA DRY THANKS TO MY EVER HANDY ZIP- LOCK BAG. THE EVIDENCE NOW BEING RELEASED IS VERY TROUBLING.

THE PRESS AND RELATIVES OF THE VICTIMS

MOURNFUL SONG AND DRUMBEAT HONORING THE 27 DEAD

DEALERS (Main and Hastings)

I was inspired to take some photos of very old gravestones in a Vancouver cemetery after reading an article and seeing photos of gravestones taken by Andre Gallant at a Savannah Georgia cemetery and submitted to Photo-life magazine. What he said pretty well sums it up for me.
"SOME PHOTOGRAPHERS THINK THAT CEMETERIES ARE AN ODD PLACE IN WHICH TO PHOTOGRAPH, BUT I FIND THEIR TRANQUIL BEAUTY INSPIRING. WHETHER PHOTOGRAPHING AGING GRAVESTONES THAT PAY HOMAGE TO THE DEAD, TREES CASTING SHADOWS ---- I OFTEN LOSE MYSELF FOR HOURS, WANDERING ABOUT WITH MY CAMERA.
---- THESE SACRED GROUNDS ARE PART OF PEOPLE'S CULTURE; THEY ATTEST TO A PAST OFTEN RICH IN HISTORY "

IT'S THE BEAT NOT THE FEET

THIS IS ONE OF A NUMBER OF DEMONSTRATIONS I HAVE ATTENDED FOR THE PURPOSE OF PHOTOGRAPHING DEMOCRACY IN ACTION. SOME OF THE ISSUES SEEM TO BE MIXED WHEN YOU READ THE SIGNS.

BACK TO THE STREET

DRIVE-BY SHOOTING (by camera) DOWN AND OUT "No Second Chance"

I took these photographs around the court house at the beginning of this case.
The jury is being chosen for the PICKTON murder trial. Alleged that PICKTON is responsible for the deaths of 26 east side women (mostly believed to be in the sex trade and addicted to drugs). The trial is expected to last for one year during which time l2 jury members will be required to attend this trial. The eyes of the world are focused on this sad case. My caption dedicated to these ladies would be

Before Death - ABUSED;UNKNOWN; IGNORED;
After Death - FAMOUS

WHILE DRIVING PAST ST. PAULS HOSPITAL IN VANCOUVER (A VERY OLD HOSPITAL) I NOTICED AN OLD STYLE IRON FENCE NEAR THE BACK OF THE HOSPITAL. I COULDN'T PASS IT BY WIHTOUT STOPPING TO TAKE A PICTURE OF THIS STRUCTURE WHICH SEEMED MUCH OLDER THAN ME.
