A Face From the Past?
Humans are great when it comes to superimposing external patterns on random structures. To me these holes in the rocks at Dinosaur Provincial Park in Alberta looked like a face, even down to the teeth.

In the Eaton Centre
If you are a resident of Toronto, these images inside the Eaton Centre border on cliche, but it was still fun shooting with the 20mm Nikkor lens.

Through a Child’s Eyes
We’ve all seen it: A live performance of some kind, with the adults standing back passively watching, then a child comes up and gets close to the performers and perhaps join in, without the slightest hint of self-consciousness or acceptance of the dividing line between performer and audience. I witnessed one such moment at last weekend’s Open Streets festival as a young girl was entranced by a street band. It was a challenge to create the image; I just had the wide angle on the camera at the time, and I felt I had to take the image from the vantage point of the rest of the audience, so it would appear that I was merely taking photographs of the band, given the antipathy of so many to street photography today, especially when children are involved.
This image has been through a couple of treatments, and this is the final version, with a fair amount of cropping, but leaving enough space to show how the child had become an audience of one.

I enjoyed the Open Streets Toronto festival last Sunday; nice to walk in the middle of the streets. All images taken with Nikon F, F3 and F4 cameras, on either Fomapan 100 or ORWO UN54 film.
Back to the Railway Bridge
A couple of weeks ago, the Toronto Film shooters group had a meet-up in the lower Don Valley, and one of the stops was the old railway bridge. It was the most humid day I could recall for sometime, and compared to my last visit, there was a lot more vegetation: combined with the heavy air, it felt like a tropical rain forest.

A Bridge Not Too Far
Recently I visited my good friends Rob and Katherine in Guelph Ontario, and they took me to see a covered bridge that I didn’t know about. A lovely and fascinating structure with a lot of photographic possibilities. Both images were taken with my Nikon F4S 35mm SLR with a 28mm/2.8 Nikkor lens.
Reflections
Old architecture reflected by a modern building. I love the distortions.
