Happy Canada Day

Here is a shot of the fireworks show to celebrate Canada Day. These people are sitting on the roof of their building, across the street from my own. I wish I had been on the roof. Then again, I live one floor down...

This was the scene this morning at the Elgin Street Diner as I waited to hear news about the finalists in LiVE 88.5's "15 Seconds of Fame" contest. I made it! My second submission - "LiVE 88.5 Walker" - is in the finals along with 3 other great entries. Thanks everyone for your support in the voting phase of this contest! Click here to view the submission that made it!

By the way - did anybody else notice that the song played after the finalist announcements was the song featured in "LiVE 88.5 Walker"? It was "What I Got (Reprise)" - Sublime.

That's the name of the contest on LiVE 88.5, and I have finished my submission. The contest calls for people to submit 15 second TV spots for LiVE 88.5, and the prize is $5000 - and the airing of your commerical as part of the station's ad campaign. My entry features Sandy Hunter of the Ottawa rock band, "Bluestone". Click here to view my entry, then go on to vote on the LiVE 88.5 website.

Start Again

I'm back! I was suffering from a small lack of inspiration, but I'm ready to shoot once again. This shot was taken on day 2 of the Bluestone music video shoot I was working on a few weeks ago. Bluestone is a great local blues/rock band, and it was a blast working on the video. Check out their website at bluestoneband.ca, and keep your eyes peeled later this year for their new video, "Start Again".

Waiting for Adam

Jamie and I got into YYZ (Toronto) at 10:30pm. We needed to wait for Adam to arrive at 11:40pm. Luckily, there was a local establishment (airport bar) still open and serving refreshments.

Miracle is a local recording artist. My friend Josh is producing his new album, and needed some stills for his new website. It was really cold out.
