Are you asking yourself, "How can she take this photo?" I guess that's a good question.

First of all, I needed to take it. Secondly, sometimes it's so much easier for me to deal with something if I'm looking through my lens.

My mother never expected to be sitting watching her son die, but she is, at the age of 82, doing just that. They've reconciled a lifetime of separation in just a few days and this image breaks my heart for that reason.

My friend Kevin Day in England captured this amazing shot in the pouring rain at the Royal Windsor Tattoo . Now if I can just talk one of the TPMU into racing around in the rain with a flag...

A not so pretty slice of Toronto's history.

The riot at Christie pits shows a darker side of Toronto history, a side which is often left forgotten. Thousands of dollars have been put towards signs, art, and plaques that stop us from forgetting Garrison Creek, a creek that was buried underground, and now flows underneath Christie Pits. There is not even a single plaque that brings to light that the Christie Pits riot took place.
