Green


I have rather enjoyed the January thaw we have been experiencing. Temperatures above zero is always a nice treat this time of year. That said, the days have been a little grey, even for me who happens to love that colour. So this shot is just simply about adding a nice shot of a fresh, lush, green Hosta leaf complete with rain drops. It's almost February, so we are heading in the right direction. This shot was actually taken on the grounds of Ryerson University.

Bright Spot.


A while back I posted another photo of some bikes on a sidewalk. They had a slightly different feel being mostly in rust tones, and the basket being wood. This one was a bright spot on a dark, cloudy, January day. I think it is great that people personalize their bikes. You tend to look at the bike, and then try to figure out the owners personal style. This bike would seem at home on Queen Street, Parkdale, Kensington, or some other artsy area, but it was actually at Yonge and Dundas. Not the most bike friendly area, but who wouldn't make way for a cheery sight like this?
