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.

Eight cruisers, One suburban street


Police line suburban street
By Corey Lablans Photography

The other day I was washing my car and suddenly heard a series of sirens rushing down Princess Street. By the time I was finished washing my car, several more police sirens went zipping by putting the count at approximately five, my interest had risen; I had to see what was up. Following the most recent car it took me to a subdivision in the West end.

There were a total of eight police cruisers, a paramedic vehicle and an ambulance lining the street. I hung around for a while photographing. The police came out and chatted amongst themselves on the front drive way. Approximately half an hour later from when I arrived most of the vehicles were leaving with a few remaining behind. Not sure what it was but you don’t see eight police cruisers and a police officer holding riot shield in a suburban neighbourhood everyday.
