Walking among the office towers of Downtown Toronto 

 

We had overcast skies, blustery winds and chilly temps for a long overdue return visit to Toronto for some big city photography. The plan included several locations that we would visit on foot after taking the train into Union Station. As it turned out, we arrived by bus and ultimately our expectations of photographing most of our chosen locations were thwarted by construction activities.

 

Even so, it was an enjoyable day with good company for a wander about ...

Modern city architecture captured in infrared ... from a Saturday morning outing to Downtown Hamilton, ON with a reflections theme in mind.

At the suggestion of a friend, for both theme and location, we met for a morning photo walkabout in and around the Farmer's Market area of Hamilton. He had the idea of capturing reflections in windows of buildings in the downtown core. The theme was selected by a random theme generator he programmed and primed with 20 or so selected themes. The idea behind the generator, to hone photographic skills and vision through pursuit of images relating to a theme while out shooting. I think it worked very well, as did his selection of location for the reflections theme.
