This is one of my most favourite of pictures. Phillip, my brother inlaw, had a pool put in his backyard. He can’t swim a stroke.
Some moments are just meant to be captured.
King of his domain.

It was bound to happen this way.
We met with the oncologist, the ever lovable Dr David Hedley. The results are not in. It takes apparently 5 radiologists to come up with the results. They consult and deliberate to make sure the results are accurate. Love them for it.
We should have the results by Monday coming [...]

My sisters and I moved to Canada on August 12, 1968. Funny how some dates stick in your head. My parents Landed in 1967 in time for the World Expo. They were setting things up for the rest of us in Montreal.
I knew nothing about Canada. Too buy surviving being the only coloured kid in [...]

I thought I was doing well toward the end of last week, only to be thwarted by, what I can only call, a tsunami of events.

Each one of these [...]

The week is plagued with a constant temperature, low but constant. Extreme fatigue accentuated by bone aches that seem [...]

Cop on a beat

Location: Toronto, Yonge and Bloor
Story: I love reflections. Janet was shopping and I was out taking pictures. What an opportunity this was. A blank canvas, with the slightest hint of reflections in the puddles of water. I took a first shot, reset the camera for a second slightly different angle. As soon [...]

I was talking with a Creationist a few years ago. It was fascinating. So easy to poke holes in their theories. The other side believes in evolution. It is a sacred cow of sorts. Made me wonder.
Many years ago a single cell organism, left the safety of the the water world and wandered on land. [...]

Some pictures are just weird enough to be kept around for a while.
This is a picture of Devin and Ceilidh swimming at the pool in Heather and Neil’s genteel farm in Caledon.
Obviously no flash was used.
