Urban and Suburban in the rain and fog


Streetsville in the Fog.


I took this picture by putting the camera lens through the fence on the other side of the railway tracks, which is why that sign is backwards and why the road ends where it does. But I thought it was a nice shot of the church in the fog.


As you can see, the trees are starting to wake up!


A flowering tree! Surely a sign of spring if there ever was one!


Someone's garden is pushing it's way up!


This is just over from Union station, where the bus drops me off. As you can see, it's no where near as springy in downtown Toronto as it is in little Streetsville.


A view up Yonge street, not far from the train station.


A rainy day in Toronto; and someone risking their life by running between two moving streetcars (never a wise idea...they are TRAINS after all!)


I snapped this as I was stepping toward the streetcar.


Some windows along Yonge street. I just thought they were pretty.


Just a building I took a picture of. I seem to do that, now that I have the digital camera.


You can really see the fog in this one...it's like that building just goes up and up forever.


I saw this while I was waiting for the streetcar. Someone broke their glasses and then just rested them on a newspaper box, which reads "FREE". Great! Free broken glasses! I dunno, it seemed sort of poetic somehow. Or not, I dunno.

Your new camera seems to have inspired a lot more looking around at where you are - or perhaps it just seems that way because you're showing the pictures! They are gorgeous pictures too, it seems like you live in a beautiful and very varied place. (I think I need to finally invest in a digicam! Was there any particular rule of thumb you used for buying yours?)

I just bought what my friend told me to buy, actually. I was just aiming for whatever was cheap. I took a knowledgeable friend with me who made sure I didn't do anything stupid. :)
