This Newfoundlander has turned photography into a ticket to the best shows

Alick Tsui used to have a day job, and spent his leisure time taking photos — stunning pictures of Newfoundland life and scenery. 

He's managed to spend a considerable amount of time travelling around the island, capturing the beauty of the province.

Now, in retirement, Alick Tsui is using those leisure skills as a ticket into Newfoundland's nightlife, attending different events and capturing moments people are eager to see. 

Frames is a series celebrating photography and the people who are compelled to reach for their camera and capture moments in time.

Throughout the series, we'll meet six photographers — all with their own approach to photography, and all of whom have captured some unbelievable photos.

In this episode of Frames, Alick talks about what he calls a win-win situation, and his chance to see some of the best Newfoundland music around.

If you want to watch previous episodes of Frames, you can meet Laura MacDonald here, Eugene Howell here, and Sandra Lee here.
