It was a bright but chilly morning here in Toronto on January 1st. I was out with photography friends on a walk that included the University of Toronto campus. I liked the look of the clouds and the steam from the smokestack.

Seed Macro
I collected this sample of a burr/seed a few weeks ago, and finally got around to doing a macro shot of it this morning.
Intentional Camera Movement
Yesterday I was experimenting with intentional camera movement (ICM). I found an interesting wooden lattice and took a slow speed exposure (1/8th second) while quickly moving the camera vertically. I like the result!
Halloween in Toronto
It was a rather busy Church Street for Halloween this year!
Back to McLean’s Auto Wreckers
Yesterday I went with some photography friends to McLean’s Auto Wreckers, about 90 minutes outside of Toronto. This is my second visit (I went for the first time a couple of years ago), so to change things up this time around, I focussed on the interiors of derelict cars, decaying silently, being reclaimed by nature.
It felt like Urban Exploration in abandoned buildings, but on a much smaller scale.
I took all these images with my Sony a6100 body, and 7Artisans 10mm f/3.5 lens.
Storefront Reflections
I went downtown here in Toronto early yesterday morning; it was on the chilly side. This image of a storefront on Yonge street, filled with reflections as well turned out to be my favourite. I like the double exposure feel.
A Peterborough Weekend
Last weekend I had a great time with photography friends in Peterborough, Ontario, so the net few posts will be pictures from that weekend.
I used my Sony a6100 body and 7Artisans 10mm f/3.5 lens for these images.
Contemplation
A few days ago I was at the Beaches very early, just around the beginning of sunrise, and saw this solitary soul contemplating the waters of Lake Ontario.
Angles and Contrasts
I was out with photography friends in the Liberty Village area in Toronto yesterday morning. The brilliant sunshine and cler skies made for a great opportunity for my favourite style of black and white, iwth a lot of dramatic contrasts.
All images were created with my Sony a6100 and 7Artisans 10mm f/3.5 lens.
Wide Angle Blur
Out in High Park, Toronto this morning with my Sony a6100 and 7Artisans 10mm f/3.5 lens. I discovered that if I shoot wide open at the absolute closest focussing distance I get a background blur that I wouldn’t normally associate with a super-wide lens. I like the look.
