I took this photo at a friend's place. I liked the reflections of sky in the glass that reminded me of water. There's an ambiguous air to the scene as though various elements or realms are merging.

Tracks
After a dusting of early spring snow, the faint tracks of dogs and larger ones of their companion walkers form patterns in the yard below.
What Becomes of Old Origami Models
I'm gradually getting myself up and working after necessary but ear-splitting noise from reconstruction at the building I live in. So, for fun I'm posting these two shots of a modular origami model I made a few years ago that was accidentally crushed in a briefcase recently. I thought it had a certain appeal even in… Continue reading What Becomes of Old Origami Models
Spring in Winter
On Wednesday it went up to 15 degrees C in Toronto. (Was this climate change or the El Nino effect?) Whatever the cause, it was a perfect day to be in an urban nature setting. So I went to the Brickworks in late afternoon for a walk among the trees, dried wildflowers and grasses by the ponds.… Continue reading Spring in Winter

Still on the tree theme, here's a photograph I took today in Kew Beach Park in the Beach, Toronto. I was first drawn to the shapes formed by the overlapping branches of the central tree and the one to its left. Like diamonds forming or coming apart. These trees are some of my favourites and may be cypress… Continue reading Seen in Kew Beach Park

Late Afternoon Light
Earlier this month, while walking home late in the afternoon, I noticed that the light was washing with gold everything it fell on. The contrast with the deep stormy clouds was beautiful to me. So, out came my phone and I took several photos. Here's one of them.

A few years ago, I started experimenting with black and white photography in the fall just to see what would arise in… Continue reading Captivated by Autumn
The Past Few Weeks
It's been a radiant fall in Toronto and is just past the peak now. On an abnormally warm day (it's going up to 19 degrees celsius) and before the leaves fall any further, here's three photos from the past few weeks. The middle photo of the maple is on the University of Toronto campus--on Philosopher's Walk. The… Continue reading The Past Few Weeks
