English: One of my favorite things to photograph is a crowd. It always presents a diverse, ever changing subject, and constantly surprises me with its ability to portray facets of the human experience through moments of silence found the tumult of a multitude. Lucky for me then that I live in Vancouver, where annual street events give me the chance to practice. I feel the reason I love Vancouver the most is exemplified best through the nature of these events. They are multi-ethnic, multicultural, and pervaded by a sense of community and collective pride in our city, even if its as simple as "its cool our city does this." And perhaps best of all these events are a place where people of differing sexual, religious, and political orientations can come together without fear of persecution. This photo was taken at the now annual Commercial Drive Car-Free day on Commercial Drive.
