It's been such an amazing assignment, this last six months of shooting the Toronto Police Mounted Unit. I'm so lucky to have the opportunity to photograph them all over the city, candid and posed and everything in between. They're a terrific bunch of people and it's been great. Sad that it's ending now.

The last horse to shoot for the Toronto Police Mounted Unit trading cards. (series 2)

It's Viscount with Sgt Jim Patterson outside the Four Seasons Canadian Opera House. The sun was going down and believe me it was brutally cold. Our fingers were frozen.

We had a vision of the COC building with all the twinkling lights just at twilight. Hope we captured it.

Not sure if I like it cropped better or not.

I met this fine gentleman at a video shoot the other day. He's a great dancer and rapper in his own right.

P.C. Harold Williamson in the training ring Friday. He's doing a move called "the flying Ladner"... don't try to look it up. That's remount Dundas.

A group of veterinarians spent the day practicing dentistry at the Toronto Police Mounted Unit. I won't lie to you, the sound of the drill was not pleasant. But the horses were nicely sedated and none of them seemed to mind at all.

Today was Dorothy's 90th birthday and she celebrated by throwing a party at the Fort York Armoury and inviting all of her friends. To everyone who came and helped her celebrate and made her day such a perfect success, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
