I intended to just get a few shots of the school, then concentrate on the river nearby, but was astonished at how beautiful this building was (I hope the little rugrats appreciate it too!). I circled twice, once with my 24-70 and again with my 80-200. I’ll do that a lot it seems. Sweep once with one lens then again with the other, rather than back and forth, back and forth. So while I am shooting wide, I am also taking note of what I’ll shoot telephoto in “round two”

Calgary has a slew of these wooden pedestrian bridges. Most (if not all) cross the Elbow river in the older, nicer parts of town. They're all painted parks-and-rec green and wobble if you bounce right on them. I hope they are never replaced by a lawyer/safety-council approved alternative. August, 2005.

yours truly grew a pretty awful stash for the event. although in fairness it completely rules and i loved it. i had to grow a beard around it for the few days i was in victoria, but in calgary i was just one of the crowd looking like this.

the pub crawl crew, smiling happy faces. the last evidence of us being together as a group. the drinking began at 9am, and only got heavier and heavier. i can only imagine what the before and after shot would compare like.

Lisa and I stretching our legs around town with the girls. You don't see much of this kind of architecture around Calgary anymore... It's nice to see that Elbow Park School has been preserved.

There was one more panel that got added the next day, so that it reached all the way to the floor. I think my favourite part is the green leaves. :)

Look at the wall!

My cousin Andrew made a huge stone wall to cover the wall of book cases behind the Head Table. (Okay, other people helped, but he was in charge.)

It's a good thing I was wearing closed-toe shoes for the wedding. I don't think women painted their nails in medieval times...
