A Tour Of Toronto In Pictures

These past handful of months I acquired to devote some time with two of the most down-to-earth, talented photographer mates. We made a decision to venture outside: eating dinner all over backyard patio furniture, fleeing the city for weekends at cottages, frolicking in Autumnal leaves of inner-city parks and what we found was attractiveness all about.

We dwell to the beat of the city drum: Cease. Go. Never yield. Walk quickly. If not, drive. We often travel to the destination as our fixture and we go forth with blinders.

At times, we appear backwards. We are reminded of sweet grass and bushy trees that cover our shadows as a substitute of the high-rise pillars. It stirs our awe of beauty and lets our feet touch ground.

But, if we removed the blinders, we can find attractiveness in destruction. We can locate that area of earthly dreams in the decay of consumption.

This is Higher Park, Toronto.
