The living dead infect downtown Toronto for the city’s 11th annual Zombie Walk, in support of The Heart and Stroke Foundation. A big thank you to the volunteers, organizers and all the walkers for making it a successful event! I enjoyed taking these photos.

Photo – Jellyfish Attack

October 9, 2013

0 Comments

I was invited on a site tour of Vancouver Aquarium, where I had the opportunity to go behind the scenes. This photo is of Jellyfish being studied, some of them new to the British Columbia coast. Recent studies suggest jellyfish are increasing in most coastal ecosystems. This has impact on pretty much everything that has to do with drawing in water including nuclear plants and fishing. Overfishing and global warming are probably the most important drivers of increased jellyfish.

Photos Show Toronto Don Valley Underwater

July 08, 2013 – Don Valley, Toronto, Ontario.
Heavy rains and thundershowers cause power outages and severe flooding in Toronto. The Don River crests and floods the Don Valley and Don Valley Parkway.

These photos were shot with my cell cam at Dundas St. E and DVP. There was damage to vehicles but luckily no one in this area was hurt. The storm hit during the evening commute stranding thousands of commuters. I made it home safely. ^
