House Doctors 07

House Doctors 07
This is my picture of the band House Doctors at Olympic Plaza in downtown Calgary, Alberta. Unfortunately, lighting was rather difficult for my camera, and none of my shots turned out that great. I saw the same band on August 25, 2008 at the Eau Claire Y. The concert here at Olympic Plaza, to me, was higher quality, with better sound; I assume due to a better setup.

Protester Denise Ogonoski can be seen in the back seat, being taken away by police. She was taken in because she had climbed up a light pole to put up a Tibetan flag outside the Chinese consulate. One thing that concerned me after this happened, was I overheard another protester asking where Denise was taken, and the police officer didn't seem to know or care to find out.

In addition to Tibet, protesters were also informed of the persecution of the Falun Dafa (Falun Gong) movement. The man speaking said he was imprisoned for three years and his wife was still held by China, due to their involvement with Falun Dafa (aka Falun Gong), a Chinese spiritual movement.

I visited Prince's Island to see the Canada Day 2008 celebration. Just off a bridge from the island, I saw this group performing a play. I beleive this is a Christian evangelical group. My guess of what was supposed to be happening is the three girls in black had been acting as "sin" or "temptresses" to the guy they're surrounding.

I happened to be looking through some pics from a Christian-themed silent street play on Canada Day and thought this one was worth adding to the existing set. Picture quality sucks because of the distraction of passerbys, and focus isn't great, but it fills a gap in the story line of the play. My Canada Day set is ordered by time taken, if you're interested in seeing them in chronological order. Sometimes I like to look back at older pics and figure out what was happening.

I visited Prince's Island to see the Canada Day 2008 celebration. Just off a bridge from the island, I saw this group performing a play. I beleive this is a Christian evangelical group. The girl in the foreground is one of three dressed in black, appeared to be playing some sort of "evil" figure bothering the poor guy on the ground.
