Dancehall Reggae Music Scene
The photos here are selected from a series of portraits taken at Kingston recording studio Channel One in 1984. Young artists gathered around the studio all day, waiting for auditions or for their time to step inside and voice a piece over of one of the popular rhythm tracks.
A Journey to Spirit #5: The Clothesline Romance
Life was good. In his hay day, Boo ran The Boat House that sat next door to the Shady Rest on the beachfront in Qualicum. I can still smell the French fries and vinegar, their scent tantalizing my grumbling stomach after a full day of swimming and playing in the sun.

Concrete Creations: The Journey Begins
