GOLD LADIES SKI CROSSCongratulations to B.C.’s Ashleigh McIvor from Whistler who won a GOLD medal in Ladies Ski Cross… A proud moment for the home town!

Olympic fever and Canadian mania is still sweeping the streets and nation. Now add to that Hockey! I am sure at least 1/2 of Canada was watching the Olympics hockey game against the USA who won 5 to 3 tonight. The game was amazing and exciting, both teams were awesome. I have to confess...
Watching the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics celebrations and all the Canada mania in the streets sure is nice to see. I remember being a fanatic Canadian back in the 1980′s when it was kinda lame to show any pride in your country and people were extremely reserved about showing patriotism. Not me, I waived...

His last night on the earthly plain was at a huge bonfire drum circle and a...

Sunshine Coast residents, or ‘Coasters’ as we like to refer to ourselves (even Coasties sometimes too) are a great subject for photography.
