To-day at lunch I was asked by a chap I'd just been introduced to.
"What have you done as a photographer? I don't seem to re-call any photo
credits?" He asked.
So I gave him a little list which he found rather interesting.
What think you? ? :-)
Dang it was a great life, too bad they end. :-(
* Chernobyl Children-Russia/Ukraine
* Hawaii-The Islands
* Bullfighting-Spain, Weekend Magazine
* NATO exercises-Norway, National Film Board of Canada
* Oil Airlift-Congo/Zambia, The Canadian Magazine.
* Six Day War-Middle East 1967, Star Weekly Magazine
* Vietnam 1968, Weekend Magazine
* Industrial Empire-Japan, National Film Board of Canada
* Summer Olympic Games- Munich 1972, Montreal 1976, Los Angeles 1984,
Seoul 1988, Barcelona 1992
* Winter Olympic Games- Lake Placid 1980, Sapporo 1972, Calgary 1988,
Albertville 1992
* The French Riviera - Nice, France, Weekend Magazine
* Oktoberfest-Munich, Germany, Weekend Magazine
* Rome/Athens: Cities of the Old World. Canadian Pacific

This merely touches the total with 99.9% shot with Leica's of some kind
creating a collection of 280,000 images in the Canadian National Archives.
And another 100,000 in the National Art Gallery of Canada.
I trust you find this a bit interesting as I've posted it due to the chaps
question, as some of you may have wondered also.
cheers,
Dr. ted :-)
