Dark Sun Leaves

Tis the season for fall, not much of a fan. OK so I do like the way the trees change colour and all, but not the part where all the leaves fall. I think I took this shot in 2007, I remember being upset, that is the best time to do a photo spree for me. I took my Nikon out for the day, this is actually near Castle Frank Subway Station. I seen this park in which I stood there looking for the right thing to shoot. There it was right in front of me.  Instead of shooting to the main road I pointed the camera away from the busy street action. I wanted a calm shot of what that day was becoming. It became a day of fighting with the guy I was dating at the time. In fact when you really think of it, that is what we did all the time. Get mad at each other for nothing. Don't get me wrong, I wish him well in his life, but at the time things were not good at all. We did end up going our separate ways, probably for the better.
Look it's the water. This is where you will see me most of the time. If I am having a bad day or whatever I hang out by the water. There is something about it that calms me down, the reasoning is odd. When I was younger my parents, when they were still married, used to take me down to the waterfront in Mississauga where we lived. There is a place near Port Credit where you can park your car and look at Lake Ontario. So when I was young we would go there and look at the water for a relaxing time. I rarely will go there, but I do go to places in Toronto to do the same thing. The above is in the west end near the Humber River. When I snapped this one, I liked how the sun was reflecting off the sign. Also how the sign said to swim at your own risk. Rusty sign, perfect sunlight, equals good photo opp. 
I wish that I could remember where I took this one, boggles the mind. I know that I love how trees look in a picture. I also enjoy the sunlight shot and total blackness in the background. It makes things almost not seem real even though it is.
OK so I know that I'm a Wiccan and all but I do like how churches look from an architectural view point. This is my Mom's favourite shot that I took. I guess because it looks like the church is far away when in reality it is close to the street. This church is found in Bloor West Village on Annette Street. In 2006, I found this one when I was walking home one afternoon. I remember entering it into a Nikon Contest, but it didn't win. It did win in my Mom's heart though and that is all that mattered really.




A video I made many years ago.
