Oshawa Generals vs Brampton BattalionFebruary 02, 2007




It was my first time shooting hockey at the new GM Centre in Oshawa. Needless to say, it's significantly better and brighter than the old building. There are holes in the glass for shooting, and there's access to the rafters above. I wish I could have stayed for the whole game, never the less I can't wait to shoot their again.
Only two photos worth mentioning here, the last one was the 'Huck a Puck' contest during second intermission, where over 500 pucks were tossed from the stands to see who could get closest to center ice. The winner won a whole bunch of money.
The second last photo is of OHL, January player of the month, Oshawa Generals - John Tavares, a second before he scored a goal in the second period, giving him his 100th point of the season. The goal also ended up being the winner in a 5-4 victory over the Battalion.
As of today (Feb. 12) Tavares is leading the OHL with 55 goals scored and is third overall with 104 points. At 16-years-old... that's pretty impressive.
Accident in Port HopeJanuary 27, 2007
Some photos I took on my way back from work. Although not advised, I ran across the highway (401) to take these pictures. I guess you can say it was worth it, as I made front page on www.thestar.com and got A4 in the Sunday edition of the paper.
Although the accident was tragic, it could have been much worse if the truck was moving at the time of the accident. The Mazda was driving in the left lane, hit the centre median, lost control and crossed three lanes of traffic and landed right underneath a parked truck. The 401 was closed for over an hour.
