Take us to your leader

Posted on July 1, 2020 by

Snapped this back in early June. I’ve always thought this art installation looked like aliens. The CN Tower makes the shot for me. Hope you’re enjoying Canada Day. Me, I’ve been busy moving a friend of mine these past two … Continue reading →

Light & shadow play on Bay St.

Posted on June 27, 2020 by

I shot this back in early May when the lockdown was still in effect. I love the light and shadow play here and hung out on this corner for a good half hour or more. With so few cars on … Continue reading →

Lady in Red

Posted on June 25, 2020 by

Shot this about three weeks back. I really liked the light here so I simply stuck around and waited for a strong subject to enter my frame. Her red outfit really pops here, which is why I left it in … Continue reading →

Royal Alex Theatre

Posted on June 15, 2020 by

This is one of Toronto’s most famous theatres. Built in 1907, the 1,244-seat Royal Alex is the oldest continuously operating legitimate theatre in North America. I’ve never been inside, but I hear it’s beautiful. The current show, Come From Away, … Continue reading →

Late afternoon light on Bay St

Posted on June 12, 2020 by

Shot this on a Sunday afternoon downtown. Usually it would be busy as hell at this spot and this time of day, but not during this pandemic. I am noticing things getting much busier. Still not nearly back to normal … Continue reading →

Quiet Queen Street

Posted on June 3, 2020 by

I shot this a month back. Things have picked up a lot since then. The Eaton Centre (our huge downtown mall) still remains closed, mind you, but some retailers have been allowed to reopen under certain strict conditions. Still no … Continue reading →

Patience is important

Posted on May 28, 2020 by

Patience is the cornerstone of good street photography, in my opinion. It’s sort of like fishing. You don’t row out to your favourite fishing spot, cast your line and when you get no bites in the first five minutes, reel … Continue reading →

Things are looking up

Posted on May 26, 2020 by

I don’t usually shoot a lot of skyscraper shots like this (what I call urban landscapes, or perhaps architecture) but with so few people out and about I’m having a hard time focusing on street photography alone. This pandemic and … Continue reading →
