My father took this shot sometime in the late-1950s, '58 or '59. Obviously an intercollegiate trackmeet. I don't know my British Columbia landmarks, but I think it was at the University of British Columbia. He took a lot of track pictures, he ran the 200 himself, but was a better swimmer. He did the butterfly. I love this shot, the sprinters getting ready to lean into the tape, the spectators leaning in to watch the finish, the crowd in the stands. A nice sports shot.
