Photography is the documentation of life, once that shutter has clicked, the moment has passed and history is made. Some may be familiar with project 365, a simple concept, take a photograph everyday for 365 days. This blog is an extension of the project; the goal is to keep photographing every day, who knows how long? It is an excellent archive to look back on, see how things change. Change can be subtle, such as different coloured flowers being planted each year to a changing landscape with buildings being demolished and new ones built. This blog archives life’s diversity and my encounters.

2013 Week 43 Photos

2013 Week 43 Photos
(21st week photographing)

By Corey Lablans Photography 

This week’s photos focused on the life around Queen’s University, other then the last photos, which some could argue would work. Fall is a fun time, nice colours and of course pumpkins, enjoy. 
2013 10 21 – A person jogs in front of a building being demolished at the corner of Stuart and Albert Street in Kingston, Ontario. The corner of Stuart and Albert will be the site of one of the two new residences to be built at Queen’s, part of a project worth approximately $70 million.

2013 10 22 – A student sits on the sign in front of Stauffer Library at Queen’s University. The library was built in 1994 and cost approximately $42 million.

2013 10 23 – Students examine pumpkins outside the John Deutsch University Centre during the weekly farmers market. One of the historical beliefs behind the jack-o’-lanterns is that they are used to ward away evil spirits. The earliest record in the U.S. of jack-o’-lanterns stems back to 1866.

2013 10 24 – Students sit on couches in the Lower Ceilidh of the John Deutsch University Centre studying. Ceilidh is a Gaelic term referring to a place of social gathering.

2013 10 25 – A pumpkin meets its demise during this year’s pumpkin smash behind Leonard Hall at Queen’s University. The event was held by the Engineers Without Boarders (Queen’s Chapter), for information on the organization check out their website: http://queensu.ewb.ca/

2013 10 26 – Members of the Queen’s men’s rugby form a maul against McMaster during the semi-final game at Nixon field. Rain and heavy wind didn’t make playing conditions favourable but Queen’s defeated McMaster 38 – 3.

2013 10 27 – A bottle of Wild Turkey American Honey stands beside a glass of Ginger Ale in mid pour with the first volume of Walking Dead propped up behind. Wild Turkey comes from a distillery in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky built in 1869 and is part of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail.
