new print – “lego date on the traffic bridge”
Even though the real traffic bridge is gone, it does live on in Lego form. This model was created by Andre Lalonde and has been displayed at the Western Development museum. I met up with Andre at the WDM and got advance access to the event so I could photograph his amazing bridge model. OtherContinue reading “new print – “lego date on the traffic bridge””
New Prints – “february 7th, 2016”
This is actually a series of three new prints that I have done up from demolition day for the fourth span of Saskatoon’s Victoria traffic bridge. I wanted to present these as a series in time to try and convey the suddenness of the explosive demolition, and to focus on that I have titled eachContinue reading “New Prints – “february 7th, 2016””
New print – “frosted”
I have been working on making some new prints, some of them from older images. Continuing on that theme, I have recently revisited this older photo of the Victoria traffic bridge from February 12th, 2010. The bridge was intact and functional at the time, and the hoar frost that morning was absolutely beautiful. The FrostedContinue reading “New print – “frosted””
New print – “crossings”
This new print is actually an old picture. I’m compiling a series of Victoria traffic bridge photos to display at Moka in September. This one is from when it was intact, and still open to traffic. It’s a longer exposure photo from December 20, 2009. Those expensive lights on the bridge are nicely lit upContinue reading “New print – “crossings””
New print “last span standing” – the end of the Victoria Traffic Bridge
The Victoria traffic bridge in Saskatoon was an elegant landmark. Opened in 1907, it has been a big part of Saskatoon ever since. I personally loved this bridge, including it’s character and too-narrow roadway. But, it became corroded and unsafe so demolition was needed. Today this is the last span standing. This picture was takenContinue reading “New print “last span standing” – the end of the Victoria Traffic Bridge”
New print “load limit”
I’ve been working on putting together new prints of the Victoria Bridge. In September I have the opportunity to hang these photos as Moka coffee bar in Saskatoon, and I wanted to focus on the old steel bridge. These will be a collection of shots ranging from 2009 to present, with the bridge in variousContinue reading “New print “load limit””
Starbucks on Broadway
The Starbucks on Broadway just had a renovation, and the place looks great. I’ve been fortunate enough to have some photos hanging there since 2014, and I was delighted that they offered me continued display space after the renovation. I took the time to do a little reorganization of the prints on display. Bruno ofContinue reading “Starbucks on Broadway”
26 bridges – the Lego Traffic Bridge
The fifth of my bridge photo project is a bit of an atypical one. The real traffic bridge is in the process of being demolished, but it shall live on in Lego form. A local Lego enthusiast Andre Lalonde has made a five span replica of the bridge, and it is very impressive. Very coolContinue reading “26 bridges – the Lego Traffic Bridge”
26 bridges – load limit
In 2016 I have decided to do a mini-project on Saskatoon’s bridges. I’m aiming for 26 unique shots of the 7 main bridges in town. One final photo per outing. Eva with the Traffic Bridge The first photo was taken one day before there was demolition on the old traffic bridge. Originally a 5 spanContinue reading “26 bridges – load limit”
26 bridges – further demolition of the old traffic bridge
And then there was one. Another segment of the traffic bridge in Saskatoon was brought down by explosives today. It was built in 1907 and originally had 5 spans of iron truss bridge. Today only one span remains in place. I will miss this piece of history and hope that the city replaces it withContinue reading “26 bridges – further demolition of the old traffic bridge”
