SF city hall

underneath the bay bridge

These willow-y things grew like weeds on the foothills of SoCal.

I was away for 10 days in sunny California, now I've returned to the reality of Toronto in Dec - oh joy.

nuit blanche

First time Toronto hosted the Parisian art all-night art crawl, it seemd like it was quite the hit as Queen West buzzed with haute-coutour types rubbing shoulders with the hipsters.

Who needs a pacifier when you've got five fingers!

My grandfather at 102.

Anti-war Protest

The war machine marches on as millions pray for peace.

bank towers

Guerilla Gardening

This is something cool - a car brimming with soil and plants found in Kensington Market.

tagging up the turf

This was taken at the "Styles in Progress" grafitti event in Toronto. This is definitely one of the coolest understated events during this event-filled summer here in Toronto. A back alley running a few blocks is used as a giant mural for hundreds of artists to make their art on - legally too! Hooray for public spaces!

Fancy car cruising down University Ave.

Moonlit Sky

Taken at Killbear, overlooking Parry Sound.

Josiah & Junior in Kensington

I met these 2 cats in Kensington while Josiah (left) was hawking his new CD.

The "Chalkmaster"

Chalk guy on Queen St.

A rendering of "Superman Returns" by this chalk guy who is new to me. They were out in full force on this event/tourist filled Saturday in T-dot.

Jesus and the Sunset

Taken on a detour through a Roman Catholic cemetary. The security guard showed up later and kicked me out - wish I got pics of his ugly mug!

Brickworks Building

Trespassing on the Don Valley Brickworks.

Streaming water

Another long exposure shot taken at Hillton Falls - this time of a small stream.

waterfall

Long exposure of the waterfall in Hillton Falls, a nice conservation area around Milton. It was hot and muggy and the mosquitos were unforgiving... but it was worth the journey.

Into Davisville

Train entering Davisville station - I was standing on a bridge by Duplex Ave overlooking the tracks when I shot this.

Lifeguard House

where should I go?

Sleeping bag

One of the thousands of homeless who sleep on the streets of Toronto every night...

Carlu

Lights at the Carlu, a posh dining/dancing/whatever hall for the rich &/or famous. Doors Open event is probably the only time regular folk like get to see such a stunning place!

chandelier

This a chandelier from the Gooderman Mansion taken during Doors Open.

bland buildings

...and bland weather for the next few days. However, rain does pose many interesting photo ops - I'll see what I come up with.

Tulips

Rocks

Well, I found out how creepy cemeteries are at night - at least when you're alone! But I stuck around long enough to snap a few pics.

Tombstones

Killer in the Duaflex

Waiting for the bus

Empty Parking Lot

I couldn't sleep so I decided - hey, why not take some night shots!?

This is an older shot from March...but I'm done with school meaning my photo drought is over.

centro-matic live at the horseshoe

After waiting for 5 years Centro-matic finally made it Toronto. Their set consisted of a bit old and new material off their new record 'Fort Recovery'. Hearing their stuff live was so refreshing to my ears! That, plus being deprived of live music in general definitely added to the bliss.
