This image taken in a TTC subway station is about a year and a half old, but given current circumstances I think it fits well from a symbolic point of view. We are in a dark descent.

At Another Library
A couple of days ago I was outside another library in Toronto: the Riverdale Branch. I love the external architecture of this building: it is like a fortress of knowledge.
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!
The Only Cafe Portrait Series: Paul
This time around, my photography friend Paul Henman. A seriously smart fellow!
Old But Still Working
Testing an old Zenit 3M 35mm SLR last week. Nearly 60 years old and very primitive, but surprised to see it still works!

The Bridge From Both Sides
A pedestrian bridge in the lower Don Valley, from both sides. Both images taken with the Sony A7ii.
Tulips in May
I live close to the East York Civic Centre here in Toronto, and it was nice to see flowers (mainly tulips) in bloom in the garden out front yesterday. Sony A7ii, 55mm/f3.5 Micro-Nikkor lens
Testing Derev Pan 100 film
My good friend and fellow podcasting host Alex Luyckx recently gave me a roll of Derev Pan 100 film to try out. It is a surveillance film, and has an interesting look! I shot it at The Beaches earlier this summer.

My New Novel!
Not a photography post, but still an announcement that means a lot to me:
I have decided to do a “soft launch” of my first novel, The Game of Muddy York, by making it freely available as a PDF for download here.
I will be starting on the sequel in November, but for the time being if you like Urban Fantasy, feel free to download and have a read!
Thanks to Janice Kerrkamp, Jo-Anne Wurster and Susan Murphy, my beta test readers!
And of course a special thanks to Janice Kerkkamp for her help and support over this 10 month project!
