"Jumpin' Jake" or "Hurdlin' Herslow"...a question for the age.
Best of 2025

Toronto wide receiver Jake Herslow caught a pass, and leaped over Robert Priester as the Ottawa linebacker went for the tackle.

Ugh, the agony of defeat.
I’d have loved thrill of victory waaaaaay more.

While the Raptors gave us little to cheer against the New York Knicks, one little @Raptors fan in the stands gave the fans a lot to cheer every time he was on the scoreboard!

My favourite photo spots #1
The Yale Simpson Lounge in the basement of the Royal Alexandra Theatre.
I photographed Vanessa Sears who stars in the @mirvish.bsky.social production of "& Juliet" running there.
The space has so many nice spots for portraits!

There was drama & danger when Brodi Beasley’s bull ride was interrupted when the bull went after the flank man who ended up trapped against the fence at the Royal Rodeo. I guess the bull had beef!

I tell myself every year at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair, "don't photograph the Super Dogs, don't photograph the Super Dogs"
But, Doggone it! I can't stay away!
