This is another composite image I have been working on. I took an image of a subway train here in Toronto going past me in on the platform, and added images of four carved wooden figures taken separately.
These carvings belong to my wife and sit together on a shelf; to me they seemed like a collection of friends (and indeed two of the carvings are from Don Quixote so they will know each other), so in my image I sent them on a journey.
It was fun shooting something new in Toronto yesterday. The Wednesday gang went to check out the Eglinton LRT transit line which opened this week.
All images taken with my Sony a6100 and 7Artisans 10mm f/3.5.
There is an interesting reflective wall inside the Coxwell subway station here in Toronto. I positioned myself to appear four times in one image, due to the distortions.
I had not used this entrance to the Yonge/Bloor TTC station, and so when I used it for the first time on Saturday I had to try panorama!
I was out with photography friends this week, in the northwest portion of the TTC Line One subway. Iwas shooting with my 4mm f/2.8 spherical fisheye lens, and I like the results I got.
This image taken in a TTC subway station is about a year and a half old, but given current circumstances I think it fits well from a symbolic point of view. We are in a dark descent.
To travel in the dark, but never leave it,
in a hole where the sun is just a rumour.
The tunnel endless as the night.

This is my last film photo blog for a couple of weeks, but maybe there will be some digital/smartphone shots rom Croatia.
Recently, the TTC held an open house at one of its maintenance facilities. A fascinating tour!
All images taken with my Nikon F2A and 20mm/f2.8 Nikkor lens on Eastman Double-X film.
Two more images from the rail museum in Halton. In one of the barns they have two old TTC subway cars. I remember riding these models when I first came to Toronto in the early 1980’s. Now they live on in a permanent twilight. Weird, and a bit sad to see them empty.

My first post for 2018. I thought this image worked for the first day of the year. Hoping things are looking up.
