Hello

Hey everyone,
I've been a long time lurker around here but this is my first post. I just finished at Loyalist in the spring and have been in Toronto since May working the summer internship at the Star. Here's some work that was shot over the course of the past couple months, feedback is always super appreciated.

Richard Thomson of Toronto feeds a sparrow near the fountains in Nathan Phillips Square.

A police officer photographs a van that was allegedly involved in a shooting in Scarborough.

Jays short stop John McDonald slides into second base as Yankees second baseman Miguel Cairo turns the double play.

Rasheeda Evans in her home with her two boys 2-year-old Ammar Duncan, left, and Aamil Duncan, right who is 4. Rasheeda is a Mulism convert who used to believe in Christianity.

Rob Benzie wrote a on piece on the fickle nature or race. He is of mixed race with one white parent and one black parent, however he came out looking white and wrote about a very different life experience because of this random genetic outcome.

Thanks for looking,
Aaron Lynett

FINALLY! oh man, it's only taken what? 4 months to get you to post on here? Good to see you on here finally, now we just need to get TW on here as well. Nice stuff, I get to see it everyday, but I don't comment on it enough. That bird pic, it's stellar, as well as the rest of them. I like the police pic, and the portrait of the family with the yawning kid.

Thanks so much for the kind words everybody, i really appreciate the feedback. Marc, for that last portrait i used a 90mm tilt-shift lens to get the blur effect.
