The above photo is from Lincoln Clarkes’ epic “Heroines” series, portraits of women who lived and worked in Vancouver’s downtown eastside in the late 1990s. It’s beautiful work, and it helped bring to public consciousness the “missing women” scandal ignored by the Vancouver Police Department at the time.  Lincoln tells me he’s heading to Europe for a long stay. You will be able to see a photographic record of his travels on his wonderful website Worldwide Green Eyes.
