A shot I took a few years ago of Gordon Lightfoot. What I find interesting is that he has this incredible mansion and yet right on his porch is a standard lawn chair.

What a great shot of Gordon relaxing. He’s a humble man and obviously comfy in his regular old lawn chair.
How did you come to take this shot?

Hey Char, glad you like it!
Basically I was hired to film a bunch of Canadian music artists wishing concert goers a Happy Canada Day to a Canada Day concert in London, England. Gordon was one of them and I decided to take a couple of photos while he was talking to my father.
And sure thing! Just so long as you aren’t charging for it I’m fine with you using it!

Very interesting!
Who else did you record for the shout-out?? Was this for the audience that congregates at the Canada House celebrations in London for the July 1st celebrations? Would this footage be available to view online anywhere?

Other people included Serena Ryder, Anne Murray, Theory Of A Deadman, Barenaked Ladies…the list goes on since I covered two or three of these concerts and went to the Junos for one of the years to get some of these people.
As for the concert, it may be Canada House but the primary place for the concert was Trafalgar Square. You’re welcome to search for the footage but I don’t think any of it is up (though I have been wrong before!).
