Winter in Toronto, Canada - My shots.

DLL_4ever · Dec 19, 2005

2 days ago I went to Toronto to take some winter photos of pretty much the whole city... It was fun, and every cold.. I took 160 photos but only 46 of them turned out "ok". It was also very windy 2 days ago so even when using my tripod most of the photos still turned out blurry/uncleer...

First on my way to Toronto, we pass by the Yellowpages Building in Scarborough (a district in Toronto)

Bridge; I have no idea what the name of it is.. and i cant seem to find it anywhere on the internet...

Great shots. Now you make me want to go downtown and do some shooting. Why does winter have to be so freakin cold? It has been a long time since I have done any time exposures and maybe I'm due. Especially since all the Christmas lights are on.

that's a great series and peek at the big smoke, TO.. some great shots!

Nice series, but there's too many to comment on, especially since they're not numbered.
It seems like almost every picture is tilted to the right (a couple to the left)? If you look at the buildings, trees, poles, anything on the left of the shot, it leans into the right.

Ya got some pretty cool shots. Now I feel like going downtown too. The one that made me laugh was the street sign pic. How true eh?
Very cool . It was like a virtual tour of Toronna.

you don't

Everyone just ignores everyone and keeps to their own business pretty much..

Yeah its pretty big.. i'd really like to visit New York City though

That's atleast 5 times bigger than Toronto..

I've never met anyone i knew there.. ever.. and i've lived in quite a few different cities outside (but close) to Toronto.
