Canadian Photography postage stamps for 2013 unveiled

In Canada Post's Details magazine for January-March 2013 (vol. 22, no. 1), there's a writeup about the new "Canadian Photography" stamp series wherein I'm named as one of the "virtual photography task force" that recommended particular photographs for the stamps (p. 25). I'm very pleased to see that two of my recommendations made the first year: a portrait of an Inuit woman by Geraldine Moodie and a portrait of Yosuf Karsh by Arnaud Maggs. I was one of two consultants from British Columbia. This stamp series is being issued over five years up to 2017 to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Canadian Confederation. You can the 2013 issues by  looking through the online Details pages at http://www.canadapost.ca/shop/stamp-collecting/details-january-march-2013.jsf
