I love shooting stairs, especially with wide-angle lenses. This was the view yesterday morning from near Casa Loma in Toronto.

Back to the Plant #3
One final image from this series of the W.H. Harris Water Treatment Plant. The grey dull day seemed to align with the austere nature of the building.

Another view of emptiness
Another look at a space at Union Station which should normally be bustling, but was quiet on Saturday morning.

West of Union Station
I went out this morning with my new (to me) Nikon FM and Nikkor 35mm lens, received from my friend Jennifer Grange. The scene below is just west of Union Station in Toronto. After being unused for a number of years, all I had to do was pop in some batteries and it worked like a charm. 🙂
The Sound of Ice
One more of the Ice in the beaches yesterday. One of the most interesting things was the sound the water made hitting the ice covered rocks. A very distinctive sound!

Ice
It was a beautiful, dazzling and cold morning today by the shores of Lake Ontario in the Toronto Beaches. If it gets cold enough, the ice is always interesting here.

January 2nd, around 7:50 am. Rather chilly at the Beaches.

Night Visions
One of my goals for 2017 is to do more night photography so last night I went with my good friend Bill Smith down to the Beaches to try shooting a test roll of Rollei RPX100, to determine the best exposure. My favourite image is this one, shot with my Hasselblad 500C/M and 50mm/4 Distagon lens. The exposure time was 15 seconds @ f8.
Same Chairs, Different Season
There are a number of these sets of chairs at the Toronto Beaches, and I have featured them a couple of times in the past. This is how they caught my eye in the winter.

Winter Dock
On Saturday I took my Mamiya RZ67 down to the Beaches. It was a very still, very grey day, and sometimes it was hard to see where the water ended and the sky began.
