Le M.C.

Spiegel

Well, here it is.

After painting and drawing the people of the lovely Spiegel Tent and Tavern on several occasions, i have put down the brush and putting some images online.

If you had a chance to check out the show, you probably enjoyed the quirky production.

Of course, i thought it would be more an ode to the Weimar Republic. So, no Joel Grey no Liza Minelli but equally fantastic.

Velcom unt beinvenue, Hallo to Cabaret...unts da Spiegel.

Alley at Night

Late Night on Granville

Sometimes its nice to get drunk with a camera near you. Sitting in Barney's the local bar near 14th on Granville, i drank a fair quantity of booze and figured it was time to get on the street for some air. Amazingly it was not raining.

Something about shooting at night with black and white, it always seems seedy, possibly surveillance footage-which is great.

Looking really tough

Coffee Drinkers in Vancouver maybe

This was drawn in either the end of June or early July when I came back to Toronto, not sure. What I am sure of was I was really up close to be looking at the inside of this guy's coffee cup, jeesh that is personal.

Coffee, June 24, 2007

Another day spent milling about in coffee shops in Vancouver.

CN tower

I was talking to my friend Richelle Forsey who is a photo lady involved in various organizations across the city from the Twin Lens Club to Toronto photo groups on Flickr. We were talking about the Nuit Blanche from a few months ago and the opportunity to shoot from the SkyLab Observatory.

One of her picture were accepted and will be featured at the CN tower during Contact...check it out in May.

Mine, on the other hand, were not. So, i thought i would post them here, cause they will not be doing anything in May. The images were shot with a Holga camera and then sandwiched with 4X5 black and white negatives of myself and my father's hands.

The city was so dark and foggy at 4am when i was in the tower, it started to look like a mess and to me, took on the look on television static.
