4 Years Later

While browsing through some old photographs I found one that I had taken just after the Stanley Cup riot. I remember getting out of Downtown as quickly as I could with my wife and friend as the place become a complete mess of chaos.  I took the first photo a few days after the riots.

It was recently that I walked by the BMO once again and I decided to take a photograph to see how times have changed.

2014, just 4 years after the riot, and it looks like nothing ever happened.

It's amazing how photography can act as a time capsule to take you back to a time and place in history. This is one of the many reasons I love photography.
