Take a look! My recent work includes short vignettes from an incredibly rewarding workshop with Alzheimer Society Toronto, a raw look at healing through art at @pineriverins , and a heart warming story for Petro-Canada Caremakers Foundation on Seniors NL.

@_barrygray_ Congratulations! I love that you’ve been able to end your great career on your terms, doing an assignment that I know you’ve loved for many years.

Enjoy retirement! You’ve worked tirelessly to get here. I’ll look forward to seeing the photos you make for YOU.

What a thrill to work on this story, literally in my own back yard - a place I have hiked many times, for @afp and @afpphoto.

#UPDATE Crawford Lake, a small but very deep body of water outside Toronto, has been chosen by a scientific working group as the Athropocene's 'golden spike' — a reference point for the considerable changes in Earth's history wrought by human activity

Crawford Lake has been determined to be the best place on earth which best records the dawn of the human epoch.

I have hiked hiked this area for many years so it was a huge thrill to work on this fascinating story for @AFPphoto @AFP

An end of an era for my friend.

I’ll always appreciate the guidance from you @JLRenn (and @_barrygray_ ) during my early days, and your friendship ever since.

Congratulations on a great career and a wee-bit-early retirement. Enjoy yourself. You’ve certainly earned it.

After 37 years at The Spectator, 43 years in journalism, that’s a wrap!

RIP Gordon Lightfoot. You brought so much joy to so many for so long. A Canadian son and a worldwide music legend. Your music will live forever.

I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to meet and photograph Mr. Lightfoot, a true #CanadianLegend

Such sad news today with the passing of Hazel McCallion. My heart goes out to her family.

This tweet and photos brought a smile to brighten my day as I recall this and the many other moments I was gifted to meet and photograph Hazel.

Thanks for sharing @EdTubb @TorontoStar

[Ed Tubb @EdTubb]

1. An unexpected joy of working a weekend shift at the Star has been discovering just how many archival photographs we have of the late Hazel McCallion absolutely *beaming* while holding a comically oversized fish.

Sad to see her go but what a wonderful send-off for @serenawilliams at the @NBOtoronto. #GOAT

Great action and emotion from both tennis stars! The @leylahfernandez vs @stormsanders94 and match was the highlight of my very long day as @NBOtoronto tournament photographer for @TennisCanada. Much more on the way this week!

The more things change the more they stay the same. Getting there is half the battle.

When you need to get around the city efficiently, but also have to carry a lot of gear, what do you do? Photographers Bill and Joseph James had it figured out in 1912. https://t.co/Gpj9fJEykR #TorontoHistory #TorontoArchives

[Peter Power @PeterMPower]

Since there will be no re-enactment of the #BattleofStoneyCreek this year in the @cityofhamilton here’s a blast from the past for those of you needing your history fix.

@RNC_PoliceNL Seems deserving of an “all points bulletin.”

“Tunde Adeleke quickly learned the more positions he could play the better his chances were of getting on the field,” says @jememorris.

Photographers/filmmakers take inspiration. Pivot, adapt and acquire a broad skillset to succeed and thrive.

@RichardAndoga @CFL @CanadianForces @CPImages1 @andyfantuz Too kind Richard! Always a pleasure bumping into you and Bob on a shoot.

[Peter Power @PeterMPower]

Very cool to see the @CFL Grey Cup arrive in Hamilton onboard a @CanadianForces CH-146 Griffon helicopters from 430 Tactical Squadron. I’m looking forward to shooting events all week and the big game Sunday for the @CFL & @CPImages1 .
