Cariwest Festival and Parade
Yesterday Rob and I went to his first ever Cariwest parade, it was my fourth. I just love to photograph the parade because of the colorful costumes and characters. The music gets you moving your feet and you can’t help but dance along with the infectious rhythms, especially the steel bands.

Winning Photograph for Edmonton Photo Walk
On July 18, 2009 Darlene participated in Scott Kelby’s 2nd annual World Wide Photo Walk. She joined the Edmonton walk #2 led by Jason Bouwmeester.
About 35 photographers (amateurs, hobbyists and pros) met at the Shaw conference center and embarked on a 2 hour walk through the inner city area, ending finally at Churchill Square. Many different angles were taken of the same subjects along the way and it was interesting to compare how each photographer’s view was slightly different than the next.
Each photographer was then allowed to submit up to two images for the contest. Jason was given the unenviable job of selecting one winning image from among the entries. He announced the winner today and it was Darlene’s image of the Gibson Block below.
This photograph will now go on to represent the walk #2 in the world wide competition for the overall winner for the day.
