My beautiful launderette

She's my favorite, anytime, anywhere
London, ON
December 2016
This photo originally shared on Instagram

Our washing machine died last year. Which was kinda surprising given the fact that it was barely 7 years-old. Adding insult to injury is the fact that it was a Samsung, and apparently the simple part that broke on it was part of a much larger, much more expensive assembly. Of course, they wouldn't simply sell us the little part we needed.

So with the prospect of a four-figure repair job, we were stuck trashing our barely-broken-in washing machine because it was basically built like crap.

Thanks for nothing, Samsung.

While we waited for the replacement washing machine - a Maytag - to be delivered, we found ourselves back in the laundromat to ensure our kids didn't go to school in strings. We had been here before*. This time, just like last time, it felt strangely like home.

Voices of Fire - in a parking lot

Striped memory
London, ON
November 2017
This photo originally shared on Instagram
Remember the huge controversy over the painting of a couple of stripes that our national gallery bought for kabillions of dollars? [Voice of Fire by Barnett Newman] Ever since then, I've wondered how I, too, can sell a simple, stripe-themed piece of art for kabillions of dollars.

Every time I shoot a scene like this one, I cry a little. But I'll keep shooting, because even if the feds aren't writing me a massive check for a mere stripe, it felt good to steal a fleeting moment in the office parking lot before I headed home for the day.

Different day, different kind of reward.

Autumn on the Thames

Reflective and temporary
London, ON
November 2017
This photo originally shared on Instagram
I ride past this spot all the time on my way home from work, as the Thames Valley Parkway, London's multipurpose cycling/pedestrian/whatever path network, follows the river through much of the centre of town. But as often as I'm nearby, rarely do I venture down to the river's edge with a camera.

That needs to change, because, from the looks of it on this Sunday afternoon, it's a pretty neat place to spend some quiet time.

Trees stand sentinel

Aligned
London, ON
November 2017
This photo originally shared on Instagram
Once again, I find myself looking for comfort through my lens. Sure, it's a wimpy thing to do, but it makes me feel better amid the general chaos that seems to define 2017 life.

Today's photographic equivalent of comfort food is this, where trees stand silent sentinel to all those who pass through and past them.

Although the path is empty, it's a reminder that everyone's on a journey, and everyone's individual journey is unique - even if we can't see where they may be headed.

You hear them long before you see them. They fly anytime, day or night, in any weather conditions, working together to stay safe and minimize their energy use. I stop whatever I'm doing anytime they fly over, as I did this time on the riverbank in Springbank Park. Because this never gets old.

Decomposing vegetative matter still matters

Still vital
London, ON
November 2017
This photo originally shared on Instagram
There's a swamp alongside the bike path not far from our house, and most days I fly past it without giving it a second thought. I figure I don't have to bother, because old, wet, dead things don't offer up much for the soul.

After taking the time to shoot the scene a few weeks back, I'm thinking I may need a different perspective.

(Hint: there's color here. Look closely.)

The sun sets over Elginfield

A day ends in the country
Elginfield, ON
October 2017
This photo originally shared on Instagram
Just north of London, there's a crossroads familiar to anyone who travels the rural highways that connect southwestern Ontario like a stitched baseball.

Right near one particularly busy intersection - Richmond and Highway 7/aka Elginfield Road - there's a legendary old restaurant, the North Star, that's been a beacon for travellers for as long as anyone can remember.

We stop here often for dropoffs and pickups. And every time we do, I feel the need to look out over the adjacent farmer's fields. Sometimes, the view makes the trip absolutely worthwhile.

We had never been here before, this delightful little eatery on London's tony Richmond Row. Nothing pretentious, diner fare, family-owned, felt like home.

One meal was all it took to convince us this place was the real deal, a treasure hidden in plain sight. A texture-laden pic outside was absolutely called for.

It's called Prince Albert's Diner, and I'm sorry we didn't discover it sooner. Next time, milkshakes.

This photo originally shared on Facebook
23 years ago, this no-longer-so-little guy instantly - okay, not so instantly, as he logged over 16 hours of labour before deciding to make his appearance - turned us into parents and forever changed our world for the better.

He's gone from a wrinkly munchkin to a kind-hearted, creative and wickedly funny young man in what seems like a blink. What a journey it's been, and how lucky we are to call him our son.

We know the next year will be a momentous one for you, Zach Levy - and we can't wait to see where your next adventure takes you. Keep going from strength to strength.

Downtown London storefront after hours

S
Style, the way it used to be
London, ON
October 2017
This photo originally shared on Instagram
I'm not often here after the sun goes down. Wait, rephrase that: I'm not often here at all. Dundas Street was once the retail and commercial spine of downtown London, a vital artery that fuelled the city's growth.

These days, like so many downtown retail streets, it's a mere shadow of what it once was. Decades of efforts to revitalize it are starting to generate some encouraging results, but it'll be a while before it's anywhere close to that old vital-class standard, where families looked forward to coming here evenings and weekends, and no one sighed at the very mention of the word, "Dundas".

We'll get there. Until then, I'll shoot flashes of its former brilliance wherever I can find them. Like here.

It's been an awful day in so many ways, but I did get quoted in the The New York Times today, so it's not a complete washout.

After Drone Hits Plane in Canada, New Fears About Air Safety
Byline: Christina Caron
It’s unclear “how law enforcement is going to be given the resources they need to make sure that that drone that you buy at the big-box store today doesn’t cause an accident tomorrow,” the CTV News technology analyst Carmi Levy said on a news broadcast. “Right now it relies on citizens seeing them in the sky and reporting them.”

My #LdnONT #MeToo Moment(s)

I'm not one to participate in cut-and-paste Facebook viral share-fests - like the #MeToo one currently making the rounds - as I suspect there are better ways to repair the world.

Still, this brings to mind a former employer who emotionally abused his spouse/business partner in meetings, in full view of their employees. It started the first day I worked there and never stopped. He'd email attendees afterward, trying to explain how this was a sign of a healthy personal and professional relationship.

I emailed those messages home just in case I ever got a call from a lawyer. Pond scum.

Yet, as I cuddled Calli the wonderschnauzerpuppy on our way out for our pre-dawn walk, it made me smile to think that she was somehow connected to the other wonderschnauzerpuppy you see in the photo here. The two of them would have been quite a pair.
