    Alberta Street Faces and Fashion

    This month’s installment of Faces and Fashion on Alberta, coming to you live from the evening of the Democratic Convention. A few TVs on the street and lots of people crowding into bars during Obama’s speech. Which is why this first image is so appropriate: And this one also, of Christophe. “I felt like exercizing my freedom of expression tonight.”…

    Fontaine de Vaucluse

    A little street shooting at Fontaine de Vaucluse, Provence, France. The texture of aged stucco and stone are part of the charm of the area (and, indeed, of any part of the world that builds with these materials). Add to that a young lady whose clothing choices match the surroundings, and a few flowers, and you’ve got a picture. All…

    Stories from London Town

I attended a press briefing at City Hall this morning, for the Olympic Torch Relay, which will happen this Sunday through 30 miles of London.

    The Birds of Trafalgar Square

    More street shooting, from Trafalgar Square. (I think that any time you can include ‘Trafalgar Square’ in a sentence, the better off you will be in life. It’s so…classy.) I’ve been making a lot of new friends this week while I work. This is one of the more joyful photos I’ve taken. This gentleman is from India (having immigrated 20…

    Hitting the Streets in London

    Well, finally, I have something to show you. Shannon and I went into the city on Monday, and I must say: the people watching in London is out of this world. Wow. I didn’t have my camera, and it was killing me. So today, on my own, I went in, visited the British Portrait Gallery, the Photographer’s Gallery (both excellent…
