Our full photo gallery from the David Foster Foundation 40th Anniversary gala and concert are now live at thezone.fm/dff40/ (this is just a small sampling) It was great to support the David Foster Foundation and bear witness to this incredible event. =)

A crowd of thousands sits in front of the Legislative Assembly of BC.

A stage of performers surrounds CeeLo Green and David Foster, awash in spotlights.

Fireworks light up the stage, are projected on side screens, and reflect in the water of Victoria's Inner Harbour to cap off the David Foster Foundation 40th Anniversary concert.
