Another image from the VOX Toronto Songwriters Circle from last Thursday. As only one of the four songwriters was performing at any given time, it was interesting to watch the interplay and expressions of the other artists when they were not playing.
An interesting passenger on the TTC: a very thoughtful expression.
Today I have taken a number of my recent TTC images, and combined them with music to form a new video, Stand Back the Doors Are Closing, Part II
Another product of the bybrid workflow today: this image was captured last weekend with a Nikon F2 body, 24mm f2.8 lens, on Fomapan 100 developed in TMax developer. I then scanned the negative, and added some glow using Nik software in post. The look I was going for was being in a dream.
Another view of railroad tracks at the base of Pottery Road in Toronto, this time with a wider angle lens, and me crouching closer to the tracks.
Another intense character on the TTC!
It’s been a chilly weekend (by Toronto standards) by that hasn’t gotten in the way of doing some street photography. I saw this man carry a fair sized dog, and managed to pop off a quick image.

Another of the kind of face I find fascinating! He had power and presence, but also a sense of world-weariness.
I was out recently in downtown Toronto with my Nikon F 35mm SLR, with a 105mm.f2.5 lens attached. This lens is a classic, and is certainly one of my favourites. I was drawn to take this image by the gleaming metal, surrounded by salt and snow.

I grabbed this image on the way home from rehearsal tonight; just as she and her companion were getting off the train, she glanced back, and I was ready :-). I love it when that happens 🙂
