So here we are, full circle. Here’s a link to my first post, made back on June 1st, 2009. It’s the backside of the building in the photo above — The Gooderham Building, at Church St. and Front St. in … Continue reading →

Grow Little Weed, Grow!

Posted on September 23, 2009 by The Lazy Photographer

I was trying for a shallow depth of field in this photo, but it didn’t turn out that well. A faster lens would have helped. The wee lens on my Panasonic opens to f/2.8, which isn’t bad for what it … Continue reading →

Hydro Anyone?

Posted on September 15, 2009 by The Lazy Photographer

How many photos of hydro towers does one have to post before one is considered obsessed? Or maybe the better question would be, have I already corssed the line?

#1 Cherry Street, Toronto

Posted on September 14, 2009 by The Lazy Photographer

I never thought of it before, but I wonder if the lifeguard station down at Cherry Beach would be considered #1 Cherry Street? I think I’ll send them a postcard version of this photo and see if they get it! … Continue reading →

Old man in suit on bench

Posted on September 13, 2009 by The Lazy Photographer

There’s something about old men who dress up in their Sunday best for the beach. It always makes me think of days gone by, when folks dressed up to go out. It’s sort of a lonely shot, really. I couldn’t … Continue reading →

The freeway and the boat

Posted on September 12, 2009 by The Lazy Photographer

Here’s another industrial photo. That’s how I’ve come to think of them. I like the grittiness of the scene. This boat hasn’t seen water in a very long time. I shot it through the links of a chainlink fence. If … Continue reading →

Industry in Action

Posted on September 8, 2009 by The Lazy Photographer

I originally snapped a photo of the two stacks that belong to this building. You can see that photo here. This photo is of the entire building. The photo of the stacks left lots to the imagination, whereas this photo … Continue reading →

Gritty Toronto

Posted on September 6, 2009 by The Lazy Photographer

I’m really pleased how this photo turned out. I dialed back the saturation to keep the tractor in colour but everything else in b & w. This is along Toronto’s waterfront. The raised highway is the Gardner Expressway. They keep … Continue reading →

Industrial Sky

Posted on September 3, 2009 by The Lazy Photographer

Came across this during my Cherry Beach outing and has to snap a photo. I like how the hard industrial surfaces and angles contrast against the soft cotton candy clouds.

Not much to tell, really. I just like the lines in this photo.
