The area around Kipling Avenue in Toronto is not the prettiest, but that is where I was yesterday, and did find one spot that wasn’t dreary, and of course it was a flower macro.

Hard Shadows
Normally one tries to avoid hard shadows in portrait photography. But last Sunday, sitting by a window in coffee shop on a brilliantly sunny morning, I decided to go with the hard shadows, and go for an affect of anonymity.
Couple By the Window
Seen yesterday morning at OCAD here in Toronto. I didn’t even have time to really focus and had to guess. I was close enough to be able to sharpen in it post.
Stairs Into The Ravine
I have a list of photographic ideas and locations I want to try, and on that list is the stairs into the north end of the Glen Stewart Ravine in East Toronto, shot with my 4mm circular fish-eye lens, so that was my outing yesterday morning. Here are two black and white images, along with a faux-infrared treatment.
Construction on the Danforth
A couple of evenings ago I went for a short walk along “The Danforth” (Danforth Avenue here in Toronto). I saw this odd object at a construction site, held my camera over the fence and hoped for the best.
Flowers After The Rain
Coming home from Camera Club in the rain last night, and knowing more rain was forecast overnight, I resolved to go out this morning and shoot black and white macro images of rain drops on flowers.
It was a bit breezy, and focus was a real challenge, but after some work in post I got three images I like.
I used my Sony a6100 body and 90mm macro lens.
Kingston Road, Near Warden
Out this morning in the Kingston Road / Warden area in Toronto / Scarborough. A neighbourhood of contrasts. My eye was drawn to the decay. All images taken with a Sony a6100 body and 7.5mm f/3.5 fisheye lens.
The Claw
This past weekend I was in Presqu’ile Point Park in Ontario. Ther was a lot of large driftwood and leaning trees by the shores of Lake Ontario in the Park, and the branches in this image reminded me of a claw reaching out over the water.
Bridge Over Troubled Times
In nearby Taylor Creek Park this afternoon, shooting a bridge with my iPhone in pano mode with the wide angle lens. Going for distortion of reality again. Nothing is normal.
A Bright Sunny Morning …
It was a bright sunny morning yesterday at Cheery Beach in Toronto, but I had other ideas…
