Lady with Umbrella
Saw this lady with a shade umbrella heading into the west entrance of the Eaton Centre downtown and thought it would make a neat photo.
Bay St. Bus Terminal
I only managed to get a couple of photos in the bus terminal before one of the security guards came over and said, no photos. I only wish there’d been someone interesting on the stairs.
World’s First Digital Camera Used Cassette-Tapes for Storage
Take a lens from a Super 8 camera, a whole stack of ni-cad batteries, a digital to analog converter from a voltmeter, a highly experimental CCD and what have you got? Kodak’s first digital still camera, cobbled together with hand-soldered wires and circuits. And the storage? Amazingly, images were recorded onto the cassette-tape you see on the side of this historical Frankenbox.
Union Station, Toronto
I posted almost the same photo as the one above a while back, shot with my little Panny point & shoot. It was pretty dark so I played with it to make it seem like an old b & w photo maybe of the wartime era. I love those old photos. Anyway, this one was taken with my new T2i, so I had more latitude around post processing. I think the guy at the bottom right of the shot having a smoke really makes it. Hope you like it.

The Moon, a year later
I woke up last night at around 1:30AM for a washroom run and happened to look out the window to see a half moon climbing the night sky. I got back to bed and tried to ignore it, but after a few minutes I realized I wasn’t going to get back to sleep. I got up, grabbed the camera and set up the tripod on my back deck. Coincidentally — and I’d forgotten this — last year just four days away from today I did exactly the same thing with my old point & shoot. Of course the results weren’t nearly as good.
What a mess
I came across this house with its roof torn off and interior gutted on my way to the bookstore one day back in July. There was a young guy cleaning it out and loading the debris into a big container on the front lawn. I asked if I could poke my head in and snap a few photos and he agreed. The carnage was full on. Made my buddy’s reno look like nothing. This was taken at Danforth Rd. & Warden Ave. in Scarborough. Hope you like it.

This photo was taken at the Art Festival down in front of City Hall about a month back.
Bump
This apartment building is located across the street from where I parked one day when downtown shooting street stuff. It’s near Dundas St. & Church St. There are a couple of cheap parking spots in that area so I tend to park there when going downtown. Can you see the little “bump” sign?
