I have had a few nice encounters in the subway system (surprising enough) and this was my second of the day – the first being Issicha. I had just stopped by the Toronto Public Library branch in the west end to check on my photo exhibit and found that all was in order. On my way back to the subway to head downtown I saw this wonderful splash of color at the intersection. She was with a girlfriend and the three of us crossed the street together on our way to the subway station. I introduced myself and my project and asked her if she would be kind enough to participate. She agreed after hearing a few details and looking at my contact card. Meet Dana.
Just inside the doors to the station there was plenty of light and a wall of tiles, some of them plain and a few with colors. I suggested we take the photos against the tiles. Her friend occupied herself on her cell phone while we did the photos and it was clear that Dana enjoyed the experience. When I asked her about the bright red hair she said “I do it myself.” I wondered if she is a hairstylist and she said “No, but I learned from my Auntie and I enjoy doing hair.” I commented that it certainly grabbed my attention. Confirming that I wasn’t making the two of them late for something, Dana said “No, not at all. We were just doing a bit of shopping for the children.”
Dana is 26 and came to Canada from Jamaica at age 12. I told her it was a coincidence that I had photographed another Jamaican in a different subway station earlier today and showed her Issicha’s portrait which was still on my camera. I asked about Dana’s advice to her younger self and she said “Be strong no matter what. Better times will come.” Her biggest challenge in life has been when her six year old son was struck by a bullet in a neighborhood shooting. I’m sure my shock registered on my face. I didn’t push for details but did ask about the outcome and she said he recovered well and is doing great. Her face lit up in talking about his good health now. Her message to the project was “What doesn’t kill you will make you stronger.” It’s interesting that her answers to the three questions I asked all tie together. Without planning it, I spontaneously asked her if she had a dream. She said “I do. It’s to be a flight attendant.” I commented that I’ve always loved airplanes and anything relating to airplanes. “Do you think this dream will ever come true?” I asked. She said “Oh, I’m definitely going to try – but not until my children are older.”
I thanked Dana and her friend for their patience and we exchanged contact information. I told her about my photo exhibit just across the street and she asked me to send the details with her photo and she would look forward to seeing it.

Business card close up.
FA was asked to create a name and visual identity for Neuwave Systems. The name needed to act as a bridge between Neuwaves heritage and the new company’s future as an independent organization. A communication program was required to help customers, employees, and investors make the necessary transition and at the same time create a fresh image that differentiates the organization, its products, and services from its major competition.
Based on wavelengths and equalizer LCD's, the mark leverages Neuwave Systems’ status as a well-grounded pioneer. It portrays the company as a constant guide that customers and partners can rely on to navigate their way through an industry that has traditionally been complex. The look and feel of the brand is designed to suggest a highly professional, well-established organization and achieve differentiation.

To our beloved customers:
As some of you already know, E2V System is going to be retired on May 31st.
Because of this, we have to migrate to a new vendor system.
If you own any gift card, I suggest you to redeem it as soon as you can, same goes for store credit and if you would like to have a back up of your previous purchases just in case, then this is the right time to get a copy from our Redelivey Terminals.
Since we’re going to switch to a new vendor system soon, I am also going to work on a new store building, so there are going to be a lot of changes around the sim in the next days!
My sincere apologies about this issue and
I hope you can understand that there is nothing we can do about this situation.
Have a good day/night <3

U.S. Navy Grumman EC-2 Hawkeye at a joint forces exercise in Victoria B.C. 2007. I suspect there was a problem in the hydraulic system which made it necessary for crew members to physically move the wing into place, just a guess. When I first saw this happening it reminded me of a historic photo taken by Joe Rosenthal when the U.S flag was raised at the Battle of Iwo Jima in 1945, WW II. From my archives. For more info:
The Machine That Goes 'Ping!' that I built for SImon Imberger's low budget genre feature "The Curable".
This angle shows the top of the machine dressed with: printer cartridge packaging, electronic chassis parts, a computer fan grill, a golf tee, some actual medical tubing (goodness, what's that doing there!), a paperclip and some bandaids. The bandaids
are dirtied down with what I had handy on site, which is to say, a bit of honey and some red stamp pad ink.
(Yes the number "42" comes from "The Hitch-Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy" and the "108" is from "Lost".)
