Boy it’s been a while since I posted to my blog. Sadly, WordPress makes it difficult to use tags, so I don’t bother with it much anymore. I’d rather see a whole list of my tags and be able to select the ones I want to use with one click, instead of having to write them out in full. Anyway, here are some recent shots of my home town. Hope you like them.
Follow me on Instagram for daily posts of my street/documentary photography.
Been getting out a lot, now that spring has sprung. But I’ve been lazy about posting here. Mostly I’m posting to Instagram nowadays. I seem to get more action over there. Anyway, hope you like these shots. If you want to see more, like daily, follow me on Instagram.
A few shot taken at random times over the past couple of years…
A few of my recent shots of Toronto. So glad to see the weather finally improving here. It’s been a long, brutal winter. Next week every day will be well above zero Celsius and most will be in the teens.
I’m now sharing both b/w and colour images to Instagram, if you care to check it out.
It was nice to see so many people out to attend the St Paddy’s Day parade here in Toronto last Sunday. It was the first event to be cancelled when the city when into covid lockdown back in 2020, sadly. Who knew it would turn into a two year shitshow? So thankful it’s looking like we’re finally returning to normal.
I actually made this image back on St Paddy’s Day proper, last Thursday. This guy was giving out free samples of pot to passersby, believe it or not. Boy how things have changed, eh?
If you’re interested, I post daily to Instagram.
These small buildings won’t be around much longer, as Toronto races to demolish our history for more condo towers. I’m not complaining. I get it. But whenever I see these heritage buildings I always imagine what they must have looked like back in the day when they were new.
Canada has the third largest population of Ukrainians in the world, next only to Ukraine itself and Russia. Two weekends ago, there was a huge rally in support of Ukraine in downtown Toronto. It was the second biggest rally I’ve ever attended in Toronto, second only to the anti-Trump protest after he was elected.
It’s just heartbreaking to see what’s going on in the Ukraine. I find the images of scared kids to be the most disturbing. How Putin can order the murder of so many innocent people is beyond all reason.
I’m praying for Ukraine and hoping we see an end to the war sooner than later.
If you’d like to see more of my Support Ukraine rally photos, check me out on Instagram.
I recently discovered one of the editing programs I use (ACDSee Pro) allows me to create a white background and have my image float on it with a drop shadow that gives the appearance of it hanging on a wall. I really dig it. Hope you do, too.
I started employing this format for the sake of posting vertical images on Instagram. I can make the white background square, which suits IG’s format, then drop a portrait oriented image into it. So far it’s working fine.
This image is from my archives and was one of my early street shots that I was really super pleased with. Hope you like it.
