One of my most favourite pictures of all time. At least from my library.
This is a picture of Carys, my niece, playing across the street from our house in the school yard. She was running around, up ladders, down chutes and slides, around stairs, through the tunnels. All the time trying to run away from [...]

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.

Sleeping on a park bench in Mexico City. You can almost see the radio that was playing all the time.

Location: Barcelona, 2006
This picture, as promised, was taken under the overpass. I liked the colours and the lonely chair. Who would come and sit there? What would they be contemplating? So many questions.

Place: Barcelona
We were there in 2006. Janet became very sick and was bed-bound. I asked the concierge to point me to the more derelict parts of the city. Sometimes the best places to take pictures.

This picture was taken in the ravine located at St Clair and Mount Pleasant in Toronto.
Someone abandoned a computer monitor at the bottom left corner. Parts of the monitor moved the next day further downstream.
This ravine is part of an extensive system that makes up this city. Parts of it are man-enhanced as is this [...]
