Beautiful fall leaves!
Photography of Toronto that shows both the beauty of the city and what it's like to really live there. Photos range from high art to snapshots.
Beautiful fall leaves!
We had some fog roll in San Francisco style the other day. I stayed indoors but luckly other people went out with their cameras.
Fall is coming to an end. Most of the leaves are already on the ground turning greyish brown and crunchy. Some of them still have nice colours though.
This is taken from the window of my old studio. I like the way the screen makes it look like needlepoint.
This is one I took last year. I've been kind of sick and am missing a lot of good fall photos out there.
This is Trinity Bellwoods park, between Queen and Dundas streets. I used to live near there and this park is one of the few things I miss from that neighbourhood. It's a large park with lots of trees and you can really feel like you are out of the city for a few minutes as you stroll through.
I live near Dufferin Grove park now. That one is a bit smaller and it's elevated so you can always see and hear the Dufferin Street traffic. It's still a nice park. I'm glad it's right on my way to the library so I walk through it a couple of times a week.
I took this photo at dusk and modified it with Picasa, which is Google's image software. I wanted to take a lot more photos but it was raining and I was on my way to a friend's house for dinner.
This is on College Street. Fall is my favourite time to walk around the campus. It's full of trees and a lot of the ivy also changes colors so you get this neon orange ivy at the right time of the year.
I took this on my way to the library. Gladstone Street is one of my favorite streets. Most of the houses are big traditional brick homes with nice front porches and there's a lot of trees, gardens and cats.
