Description
It all started with the cigarette butts...it was several years ago now that this fine gentleman started cleaning up the streets of Ganges on SaltSpring Island. Nobody paid him to do it at first but he stopped by the local businesses after he started cleaning up and showed them what he picked up off of their streets. He asked them to contribute if they wanted or not if they prefer but he was going to clean up anyway and so he did. He has made quite an impact on the town of Ganges where he lives off shore on his sailboat at anchor in the Ganges Hartbor. We had a long conversation as I was making his portrait and it all came together in this shot when I asked him "What was the nastiest mess you ever cleaned up...I'll spare you his answer.
