The summer of 2012 was an amazing time to walk the streets of Toronto, camera in hand. The weather was gorgeous–most days providing incredible sun–and the temperatures never got uncomfortable for human or beast. Life abounded in profusion.
The following are some shots I managed while meandering my way along the Toronto waterfront. I didn’t have to wander too far to get some interesting photos.
- Let’s see…where’re the best bits in here?
- Snack time at Lake Ontario (not sure I’d want to put my head down there, but okay)
- They were blinding in the afternoon sun
- Whachoo lookin’ at?
- Just a little more to the left…
- The diaphanous fragility of this bloom blew me away
- Like the bees, butterflies were everywhere
- Too many ducklings, too little shade, so mama helps out
- The startling contrast in colour was just too good to pass up
- Ready for take off
- The explosion of colour in an otherwise sere background drew my eye
- Canada’s fearsome biker gangs, the Grey Gremlins
- A dust bath for one of the local sparrows
- Bees swarmed in profusion this summer
