A romance was born when Jim Rankin’s got his first SLR camera at the age of 12. He now shares his love with a video-camera, audio-recorder and notpad.
The award-winning journalist has worked with the Toronto Star for 14 years. He has shifted from the world of photo-journalism to online journalism.
He launched a website called, Crime and Punishment, featured on The Toronto Star website in 2008.
The website exposes the shocking costs to lock a criminal up in Canada’s jails and maps out where the criminals originate from.
Canada spends $13 billion each year on policing, courts and corrections.
The website also features a game called, You Be The Judge, which allows viewers to learn about how hard it is for judges to come to their conclusions.
Even though Rankin has launched this website he does not forget his first love for photography.
