2012 or BUST!

This is a special announcement! 5 of my images will be appearing in the Toronto Newsgirls Boxing Club exhibit titled "2012 or BUST!" appearing for the entire month of August at The Grapefruit Moon restaurant at 968 Bathurst Street. Here is a description:

"2012 or BUST!"

Please come and check out the awesome Newsgirls Photoshow at the Grapefruit Moon Restaurant for the whole month of August! The Grapefruit Moon Restaurant, 968 Bathurst north of Bloor, has generously given us their entire wall to display 40+ photos of our fabulous female boxers in action. You gotta check it out! It's awesome! And their food is awesome! And affordable. If you don't know the Grapefruit Moon, this is your chance to impress a date with good food and good times.

Boxing in the 2012 Olympics is looking good for women. It won't be announced until the Fall but if all goes as planned, CABA (the Canadian Amateur Boxing Association) will be announcing that boxing, the only Summer Olympic sport that does not allow women's participation, will finally be letting the women in.

July Update

Hello all, I haven't done any updates for several weeks! My appologies. I have been very busy shooting more images for my MILLWORKS project, and talking with several owners of the mills. Generally, they have been very interested in my project, and have been very supportive in allowing me access to photograph the mills. Thank you to all of the mill owners and operators that have allowed me to do so.

I have been speaking with the owner of Tyrone Mill, and will have some of my greeting cards and 5x7 / 8x10 prints available for sale in the mill coming soon in the next few weeks. I am currently selecting images that will be for sale, and hope to have them delivered in the next 2 weeks to the mill.

I am also looking into applying for an artists grant to continue working on my Waterfalls project. The grant money would be used for travel to northern Ontario to see some of the waterfall locations which are more difficult to get to.

thanks for reading, hope you are all having a wonderful summer, and thank for for visiting www.sweeneyimages.com!
