Toronto People

People I saw in Toronto on a recent visit.

I took on the role of tourist for a couple of days.  Even though I have been in the town many times over the years, other duties got in the way of just enjoying what Canada’s largest city has to offer.  It was a neat way to spend this visit and of course induge the photography bug.

The highlight was seeing the photography of Sebastiao Salgado at the ROM.  The show is Genesis , it is spectacular and my advice is GO SEE IT.

AGO

My first visit to the Art Gallery of Ontario.  Embarrasing to admit, after growing up an hour away and visiting Toronto as many times as I have over the years.

AGO Abstract

Resting

What a marvellous place!  The original building and the recent addition by Frank Gehry are themselves works of art.

The people who took the cruise last Sunday really enjoyed it.  So they said when interviewed.

Nipissing Caretaker

The crown of the sculpture which acts as the gnomon of the sundial on the Waterfront.

Nipissing Caretaker

It is always looking out on Lake Nipissing in good weather and bad.

I think of it as an observer of, or caretaker for the Lake.

Gull Variation

Too cold to play golf today so research on the net for photoshop techniques found a nice tutorial.

Here’s a neat line drawing variation for this morning’s Hungry Gull posting.

Lots of fun!

And I’m still even par!

Cranberry

We visited Cranberry Trail in Callander for the first time in a year or so.  It is as wonderful now as it was the last time we were there.

Cranberry Trail

What a unique place!

We are lucky to have people who thought ahead and worked to provide the opportunity to experience close-up the wonderful North that we live in.
