Glen Stewart Ravine

I was in the Glen Stewart Ravine in the Beaches last weekend. Everything is so green and alive! (Although the tree stump in the second image leaves me wishing I could have seen the tree when it was alive). All images taken with Hasselblad 500C/M, 50mm/4 Distagon lens on Kodak Ektar 100 film.

I Just Liked the Colours

I was out last Sunday afternoon shooting a roll of Portra 400 through my early 1970’s Minox EL 35 (at the time the smallest full frame 35mm camera ever made). There is nothing breathtaking about this scene but I just liked the juxtaposition of the colours, especially with the red car.

Right Place, Right Time

I was in Riverdale Park, Toronto recently on the footbridge that crosses the DVP, and saw this person out walking two dogs. Only had a moment to get the symmetry lined up, to the extent I was able to.

Repurposed

This Yonge/Summerhill area high end LCBO (Liquor store for those of you outside of Ontario) used to be  a train station. I’m glad the architecture survived, but in this car dominated city I can’t helping thinking it would have been nice if it had remained an active train station.

Back to the Trees

Today I am posting another tree image, from the Beaches. Later this summer some of my tree photography will be featured in an online magazine so I am thrilled about that. Stay tuned for more details!
