Skating in the snow.

This is a digitally manipulated photo, but it's so well done and really says Toronto so I had to post it.

A shot of Toronto through a ice covered bush at Humber Bay Park.

Really nice shot! Sums up winter pretty well.

I like the angles of the arches against the building and the way the ghost skaters whiz by.

Toronto City Hall


Toronto City Hall, originally uploaded by sgr_do_or_die.

This is Toronto city hall, also known as New Toronto city hall. I don't really like it much. It's one of those modern, modern buidings that tries too hard. It looks cold and standoffish when I think a lot of Toronto's charm is the older brick and stone buildings from a century ago. It looks cold to me.

In the summer there is a farmer's market held here and in winter, as you can see in the photo, there is ice skating. Sometimes bands play there on temporary stages. It reminds me a lot of Justin Herman plaza in San Francisco.
