Gloves Fly

We just love this photo with all the action and movement. The sticks fly too.

Paperclips atop the world's largest cyclotron

Ali Lambert was the local favourite after a photowalk at TRIUMPH near UBC. Another TRIUMPH entry won the international competition for photographers who applied to visit the worlds' cyclotrons.

Photographer: Ali Lambert

This image won first place in TRIUMF's local competition. Atop the world's largest cyclotron at TRIUMF, paperclips experience some fringe magnetic field and stand upright, dancing atop the table's surface. High-school student Ali Lambert artfully captured this iconic experience of all visitors to TRIUMF.

A quick perusal of the Canadian entries at teenink.com yielded these two images. We liked iwrotehaiku's "Originality is Lost in the Wash" washing machines because they look like giant cameras all lined up. Ama Indeewari's style is so strong and the colours to bright that we couldn't resist bloggin this piece "Leisure". Both these artists have a few more posted and are worth seeing.

The Spirit of Unity Show Opening Night part 6

More big inkjet on acetate prints of some excellent photography in this series called "Separate Grounds".

Soraiya Salemohamed took the top three of cherished subjects.

Hana Turner used Elvis to show her love for music in the photo on the bottom left.

Alexandra Crone's artist statement tells how she pulled most of her family together to participate and in doing so, heard some new stories.

Sadly, its not clear to us to which artist the middle print belongs! Sometimes we are a bit slow. Maybe this ambiguity is intentional?

The Spirit of Unity Show Opening Night part 2

These large scale inkjet on acetate photo prints were done by students from Mulgrave School and collectively were called "Separate Grounds".

They hang loose from clips fastened to the wall and project themselves on the wall behind from the display lights. It gives them a 3D quality that immediately caught our eye across the room. All of the "Separate Grounds" photos at the show just grabbed our attention the same way.

MC De Beer did the ones at the top, and .... (this name to be determined - sorry!)... got these shots of her grandfather and objects representing her Iranian heritage.
