Meet Kenzie

Posted on February 20, 2017 by The Lazy Photographer

For a little change I thought today I’d share my new (well, relatively new) camera, Kenzie. My big Canon 5D is named Wilson, after the ball in the Tom Hanks movie, Cast Away. Kenzie is named after Kensington Market, which … Continue reading →

Honest Ed

Posted on January 13, 2017 by The Lazy Photographer

For those who don’t know Toronto, you likely won’t know about Honest Ed’s. It was like Toronto’s first big dollar store and it’s been around forever. Sadly, it’s closed shop for good now and a major condo and commercial development … Continue reading →

42 windows, 2 doors

Posted on January 7, 2017 by The Lazy Photographer

Here’s a shot from my walkabout downtown on Christmas day. Not many people out and about. Had the 23mm f2 (35mm eq.) on my Fuji X Pro 2 that day. I’m slowly getting used to that focal length. All in … Continue reading →

Toronto Old City Hall

Posted on December 10, 2016 by The Lazy Photographer

I snapped this back in early August. Bay street was closed for some weekend construction work, which allowed me the opportunity to stand far enough back to get the entire building in the shot. They sure don’t build them like … Continue reading →

Under the overpass

Posted on November 28, 2016 by The Lazy Photographer

I shot this last March during an outing. I was attracted to the play of light and shadow here. The cyclist and people waiting on the stop light add to it, I think. I also like the lack of cars … Continue reading →

Aga Khan

Posted on October 21, 2016 by The Lazy Photographer

Here’s another shot from my walkabout around the grounds of the Aga Khan Museum in Toronto. When I noticed the play of light and shadow and the leading lines, I simply parked myself and waited for a single person to … Continue reading →

Filmores Hotel

Posted on October 1, 2016 by The Lazy Photographer

This is Filmores. It’s an old strip joint just east of Yonge Street, in Toronto. I’ve posted photos of it before, but this one’s a little different. You see, there used to be a big high rise hotel next door … Continue reading →

The building, the bike, the pedestrian

Posted on September 24, 2016 by The Lazy Photographer

This one turned out pretty nice. I shot it back in June during my vacation. I was attracted by how the light was reflecting off those windows. I just parked myself on the corner and waited for a cyclist to … Continue reading →
