At the Beaches this morning; snow added a frosting of atmosphere.
All images taken with my Sony a7ii and Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 lens. Both the carea and the lens have good weather sealing, so they are my go to combo on a day like today.

It’s a Canadian Thing
By the shores of Lake Ontario here in Toronto this morning, around 6:40 am. I saw this Canadian flag, surrounded by Canada Geese, facing south.
Nice to see scenes like this one these days.
Rainy Flowers In the Beaches
Last Sunday I went for a an early (pre 7 am) solo photo walk in the Beaches. It had rained a lot overnight, and the rain was just ending when I arrived. There was no shortage of plants with raindrops!
I used my Sony a6100 camera body and TTArtisan 50mm f/2 lens for these images.
In the Beaches This Morning
I forgot to put an SD card in my Sony a6100 this morning, so when I got to the Beaches I found out it would be an iPhone-only outing. But I did get a Pictorial-style Pano image I quite like!
A Church In the Beaches
Last weekend was “Doors Open” in Toronto. Many buildings opened their doors to visitors, and I one of the places I checked out was Beach United in the Beaches. I was using my Sony A7ii and 15mm Voiglander super wide angle lens.
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.
Ignoring the Rules
I do like ignoring the Rule of thirds on a regular basis. This image is from an outing at the Beaches this past Sunday afternoon.
A Foreboding Sunny Morning
I was out at the Beaches in Toronto on Sunday morning. The sun was bright and dazzling, the sky a cheerful blue.
But give the current circumstances given the chaos south of the border in the US, I cannot help but see foreboding in every image.
Back to The Beaches
Back to the Art Installation at Woodbine Bach in the Beaches this morning, armed with a fisheye lens.
Ice on the Shores of Lake Ontario
On Boxing Day (December 26th) of this year, I went with a couple of friends to the Beaches to shoot the ice that had built up along the water. The ice was amazing; the look and texture different from what I had seen in the past.
I used my Sony A7ii with an old Canon FD 200mm f/4 lens, which at the very least allowed me to not have to walk on too much of the slippery ice!
