The last month or so has been very crazy for me and I'm not too embarrassed that I haven't updated here...

But that said, I do have a few slideshows that are worthy of posting.

On May 2, 3, and 4th I was "embedded" with the Canadian Forces 38th Brigade Group conducting an exercise in Winnipeg called Operation Charging Bison. It was very exciting and even though I only spent a few days with them I gained a great deal of respect for what they do and the hardships they need to endure on their missions.



My photos from those three days were narrowed down to these in my slide show. I tried to capture sound and conducted a few interviews, but when I got it all back home I realized that for a three minute slide show there would have been no focus... so I left out the interviews.

The next slide show was for the Cult concert which arrived in Winnipeg on May 23, 2006. I had lots of fun shooting it even though it was a first three songs restriction. I took a couple from the media box at MTS Centre which had a good perspective too.

After that was the 2006 Manitoba Air Show on June 3rd. I always enjoy the airshow, but it seems every time I go to shoot it I forget my sunscreen. This year was no different, and the venue was much larger, so, I was lugging my gear much further than I would have like in the scorching weather.
