Iceholes of Toronto – Part Two
More photos from my wander along the Beaches boardwalk in east Toronto, with some of my favourites from the walk in this stack.
- Not expecting to see the old man himself
- A sign of the layering that went into the massive ice formations
- A splash of colour held over from the holidays
- Another photographer grabs some close-ups of the ice
- The wind and waves force the curtain of ice to billow
- The constant dipping of the waves makes for oddly shaped icicles
- A sparrow surveys the landscape for food
- Walk carefully when looking from this vantage point
- Frozen echoes slowly release the fence below
- A grim visage holds the cliff, its teeth dangling in the water
- An attempt to brighten the chill with a colourful swing

Iceholes of Toronto – Part One
So, we’ve finally hit the sweet spot of Toronto’s winter…cold enough for the ice to be amazing along the lake, but warm enough I can actually work the camera button without suffering frost bite.
Here and in my next post are a few images I took down at the Beaches boardwalk in east end Toronto.
- A curtain of icicles dip into the lake
- A sparrow comes in to land
- Cannot stop the kayakers on even the coldest days
- An ice croc patrols the shore
- A frozen fence
- Sand captured in the ice
- Waiting for the bergs to float by
- Have a seat and break from the wind
- A woman walks her pup across the tundra
- The melt and freeze cycle builds an arch of ice
