• Yeah, I am so Fired! Well worth it!

  
  [Fragile Glass] ::Derek Shanks Photography:: — Authority: 124
  Some companies I will take a little care in picking on, this one company I know that I would totally be fired for in a heartbeat for even pondering the thought of publishing such an image. Well New York, this is my reality in Toronto. A glass tower worth millions is on the rise and I have a pour soul laying in wait at ...

• With the Past Behind

  
  [Fragile Glass] ::Derek Shanks Photography:: — Authority: 124
  Caught this man running through the vents on the corner where I captured Zena from my recent Christmas Project. He bounded through the steam almost giving me a sense of running from the past and entering into our new time. Funny that we just bade farewell to 2009 only a few days ago, so out from the year past and into ...

  [Fragile Glass] ::Derek Shanks Photography:: — Authority: 124
  Onward and upward, I have learned many valuable lessons this year and looking forward to the transition into the next decade when Fragile Glass leaps into its 3rd year online.

  Box Musique — Authority: 124
  You’ve drank some champagne with your Grandma, handed out blankets to the homeless, bought a goat for some kids in Africa and helped a young boy reach the porn rags in your local newsagents, but it’s New Year’s Eve and you still don’t feel fulfilled. What next? Find somewhere to dance until your socks ...

• Reflections in The Mirror – Future Hope

  
  [Fragile Glass] ::Derek Shanks Photography:: — Authority: 124
  One has to take a moment and pause and reflect on their own life, look into a mirror and remember that even our lives have stories that may not be much different than the people I met on Christmas Day. We all come from families, we have had people that are a part of our lives, some may be supportive others maybe not ...

• Brief Passage of Time (Billy, Gary, Paul and Mike)

  
  [Fragile Glass] ::Derek Shanks Photography:: — Authority: 124
  Some of my moments were brief encounters but no less memorable, some were openly receptive to my presence and others were guarded and I didn’t want to force my time nor make anyone feel uncomfortable. However brief, I still have names that I can place on these four men whom I am sure we have passed throughout our ...

• The Bells of Christmas Silently Toll

  
  [Fragile Glass] ::Derek Shanks Photography:: — Authority: 124
  I live in a world crossed between sound and silence. I can choose to include sounds in my daily life with the use of a hearing aid or I can easily bring the quiet silence in to my life. It is nice that I have a choice to do this, something I have appreciated for many years and still to this day some will question why ...

• You Call that Art?? (Chris and Gary)

  
  [Fragile Glass] ::Derek Shanks Photography:: — Authority: 124
  I am writing this as the cold alert has been put in place by the City of Toronto. I am hoping these two zany characters are warm and safe right now. They both reminded me of Laurel and Hardy of the Toronto’s Financial District. Neither deserve to be cold tonight. I met Gary earlier in the day at King and Church ...

• A Cold Hard Reality – Cold Weather Alert

  
  [Fragile Glass] ::Derek Shanks Photography:: — Authority: 124
  To most a cold weather alert means to bundle and dress up warm to combat the cold. It means that all should take precaution against the elements for fear of frosbite, hypothermia or potential death if exposed inadequately for too long. For me tonight, the cold weather alert just hit home because I now know the names ...

• Urban Angel (Daniel)

  
  [Fragile Glass] ::Derek Shanks Photography:: — Authority: 124
  Everyone and every place has a story and this location played an important role in different decisions that wish I could have made or handled differently. I let someone very close and important to me down at this very location. That moment I am always very sorry for and with mixed emotions I walked into the scene to ...

• The Fine Line (Tamara)

  
  [Fragile Glass] ::Derek Shanks Photography:: — Authority: 124
  Tamara is the woman I told you of being introduced to by Johnny, I came across her again a little further down the street. We started to talk again and this time she was explaining her appreciation for me taking the time to talk to her, get to know her. Something a lot of people don’t do, while appreciative of the ...

• Embrace of Trust (Johnny)

  
  [Fragile Glass] ::Derek Shanks Photography:: — Authority: 124
  Continuing along the backstreet of Richmond, I came across Johnny who looked as though he had a whole party going on. Our time together could have gone in different directions, he was polite, smiled and acknowledged me. I could have dismissed him easily and he wouldn’t have thought otherwise. I sat with Johnny ...

• At the Edge

  
  [Fragile Glass] ::Derek Shanks Photography:: — Authority: 124
  This is one of a few candid anonymous shots I captured on Christmas Day. I didn’t want to disturb whomever was sleeping at the edge of the street. Part of me just wanted to wake them to get them away from the corner. With vehicles passing by at any moment, one of them could easily mount the curb and wipe this person ...

• For Better, For Worse (Mark & Ellen)

  
  [Fragile Glass] ::Derek Shanks Photography:: — Authority: 124
  Marriages and relationships end for some reason or other and I have encountered stories including my own that met an impasse and part ways for far less stress and reasoning. I came across Ellen sitting by herself and asked how she was, I noticed she had a cell phone in which she explained she had found a few months ...

  [Fragile Glass] ::Derek Shanks Photography:: — Authority: 124
  My time with Bob was brief, he is originally from Hamilton, Ontario and came to Toronto just for something different. When I asked how long he had been on the street he was unsure of the actual numbers.  He quickly asked for two dollars and I obliged and while sifting through my change to find a twoonie he saw that I ...

• Corporate Responsibility

  
  [Fragile Glass] ::Derek Shanks Photography:: — Authority: 124
  I was a little worried about the controversy that could be created with this shot as I am singling out one of Canada’s leading financial institutions to produce this image. Before this becomes a battle of money, power and greed versus the poor and helpless. I want everyone to visit TD Canada Trust Community ...

• The Power I Once Had (Zena)

  
  [Fragile Glass] ::Derek Shanks Photography:: — Authority: 124
  There are times when I run into a mire of defeating thoughts, frustration and anger and I see how easy the inability to change ‘past choices’ can haunt you in the present. You work through what you could have done differently almost obsessing over each those moments that have come to define who you are today. ...
