Day 34

Textures of Kensington

Making it down to the Market for any reason usually ends up in being a good day. It is really the soul of Toronto; freaks, geeks, hippies, old school punks and new comers come together in an odd mix that sparks some of the best creativity in the city. Though I am usually down there for the cheap veggies.

Day 35

Where is My Mind?

The night life in Toronto has always been very intoxicating to me, especially during my early years in the city.

After the closing of my favourite club, System Soundbar combined with shifting priorities the club scene just simple fell out of favour.

Last night I got a little glimpse back into the past.

Day 36

In the Dark

Last night I got to partake in quite a unique dining experience. I visit O.Noir, a restaurant that you enjoy your entire meal in the pitch black. All the wait staff are blind and there is not even a sliver of light in the entire space.

Great service, great company, fantastic food, a night to remember.

Day 37

Wall of Nails.

I've always been a big fan of the architecture of Toronto's city hall. The inside of the building also contains some very interesting elements, including this giant wall of nails that in the main entrance. I don't know how many thousands there are, they all stick out at different lengths giving a very cool wavy look.

Day 38

Globe and Mail

I've done my best to not mix in any commercial work I've done with this project, but truth be told after a long day of shooting the patio called my name louder than the need to capture any more shots for the day. The squeaking wheel gets the oil.

This was day 1 of 3 for a major ad campaign for MPN, if you happen to see this image or one like it in the Globe and Mail in the coming months, you'll know who took the shot.

Thanks again Allison!

Day 39

Tommy Thompson

My favourite ride in the city is out to the end of Tommy Thompson park. The view was perfect this morning.

Day 40

The Old Swimming Hole

Here in Toronto you are blessed with a plethora of fantastic spots for a dip on a hot humid summers day.
