Colleges # 1

A few days ago I was out on a photo walk with friends at the University of Toronto. It was a cold winter day so we did most of our shooting indoors. Here are the first two images

At a Coffee Shop

I was at a coffee shop yesterday (for a photo print exchange event as it was), and this person was sitting near a window, and the light was perfect. The goalie mask in the background was a problem. I ended up with an “Alas, poor Yorik” moment.

Colour at the Crosswalk

I normally tend to black and white imagery, but this morning the intense blues and oranges of the crosswalk at about 6:45 am really struck me. Also, there was no traffic so I was able to stand in the middle of the road to quickly get the shot with my iPhone.

Deserted In the Winter

At the Library

In a day of pervasive right wing propaganda and attacks on schools, public libraries have never been more important. Knowledge is an important weapon for fighting back!

Last week I was at the Metro Reference Library here in a Toronto. It is an amazing space, well suited for a fisheye lens!

I’m Back

It’s been over a year. I have been posting images elsewhere, but as so many corporate services like Facebook become increasingly problematic, I need to revitalize my photo blog, so expect much more frequent image posting!
