Back to the flooded chairs at the Beaches in Toronto. I was experimenting with minimalism; to me this photograph is about what isn’t in the image, just as much as what is in the image.

Today another image of chairs by the water at the Toronto Beaches. Widely scattered, they seemed like sentinals, watching for the coming summer on a rather cool spring day.

A large (temporary) pond is making the Beaches an interesting place right now. Planning to go back with a medium format camera later this week!

Back to the early morning Beaches role of slide film for one more image.

On another dreary winter day in Toronto, with a dull light that just sucks the enthusiasm right out of me, it was nice to pick up a roll of colour slide film that I had sent in for processing.

Another image from a foggy day at the Beaches on Saturday. I was struck by this scene of a family in the distance looking out at the fog.

One last image from my trip to the icy shores of Lake Ontario last Sunday. At one point I noticed a brave kayaker paddling along the shore, so I scrambled to the best location I could get, put down the camera/tripod, composed the image, and waited for the kayak to come into the frame.

One more of the Ice in the beaches yesterday. One of the most interesting things was the sound the water made hitting the ice covered rocks. A very distinctive sound!

It was a beautiful, dazzling and cold morning today by the shores of Lake Ontario in the Toronto Beaches. If it gets cold enough, the ice is always interesting here.
