Downtown Toronto (6 pics)

[DanMarsden]

This is my first time posting any photos here (I haven't posted an intro yet, but I will do so soon, I had an account here before but for some reason I can't log in). Anyway, I was downtown (Toronto) today, and I took some photos with my rather lame digital camera (it's the only camera I have with me at the moment - long story short, my 1980 Olympics Canon is in another country, and I'll have access to it in June). So here are the pics. Any thoughts, comments, criticisms welcome.

Eaton Centre (mall)

Outside the Eaton Centre

Queen Street

Streetcar

Hot Dog Vender (I think this shot is too close-up, but that's just me)

A building

Thanks for the comments, all.

My favourite is the streetcar and #2. The streetcar photo was a very quick and unexpected one; I was planning on taking a shot of it while it was stationary, but the traffic light wasn't in my favour, so I had to make a quick adjustment in the direction that the camera was aimed at, and wait for the streetcar to pass by. I wasn't expecting it to be a good shot as my camera (BenQ DC2300) is not all that great when it comes to movement - it has blur issues, etc. In the end it all turned out well.

I will have to play with the exposure and white balance settings of my digicam. Some of the photos I took were simply not good quality in terms of colour, contrast, etc. because my camera is giving most photos a white (brightness issues?) layer or something...
