Into the Sun

Early this morning I was in front of Union Station in Toronto and decided to shoot into the sun. I like what I got.

Three Days After the Storm

It has been three days since the big storm in Toronto.

I was downtown in the Dundas and Spadina area this morning. Lots of sun, and lots of snow, as the clean up continues.

All images taken with my Sony a7ii body and Voigtlander 15mm f/4,5 Superwide Heliar 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.

When Plans Change

I could not go on my Wednesday outing this week, as life got in the way, but later in the day I did get out to Winslow Park here in Toronto.

Spadina House

Yesterday I was in Spadina House, an Edwardian era mansion in Toronto, now open as a museum. Fascinating interiors! Even in the context of a guided tour, with a wide lens like my Ziltrox 20mm f/2.8 on my Sony a7ii body, there are lots of possibilities for images!

Given that the mansion is presented as a snapshot in time, I wanted my images to be black and white.

Downtown Early Again

I was near Union Station in Toronto around 6:40 this morning. Lovely early morning sun, and I couldn’t help accentuating in in post. Two images of the same building, both with some perspective distortion.

Old City Hall

I have lived in Toronto since the early 1980’s and I have never really been inside the old city hall. That was rectified yesterday morning.
