Two cute dogs

Water Street, St. John’s, Oct. 18, 2011.

Perhaps you know you’ve achieved some level of notoriety when someone in a foreign part of the world sees an ordinary street scene and immediately thinks of you. When I saw this yesterday on Water Street, I immediately thought of street photographer Charlie Kirk, aka Two Cute Dogs.


Photos from Cape to Cabot 2011

The annual Cape to Cabot road race is a grueling mostly-uphill 20 kilometre run. It’s much easier to show up to support a runner or two, which is what I did Sunday. Along the way, I nabbed a few photos of some other participants, who were certainly up for a greater challenge than I was. More on the race here, including the results.

‘I know the lonesome sounds that follow me’

Water Street, St. John’s, October 10, 2011.

I know the lonesome sounds that follow meI met this gentleman as I walked down Water Street. He asked for some spare change and of course I obliged. We chatted a bit, then I asked him if he’d mind if I took his picture. Of course, he obliged.

Today’s title comes from this song by the Avett Brothers.


Portraits of a toddler boy

I booked a photo shoot with William, the little fella of a friend of ours, a while back and mom gave me the OK to add his photos to the site. But for whatever reason, I only added them to my facebook page. So, better late than never, below are some photos from that fun shoot.
