Grab Your Parka, We’re Going To The Beach!
January 7th, 2011 Categories: News Wire, Photographs
Not able to get away to a warm beach this winter? Well, if it’s just sand, sun and beach umbrellas you’re looking for, perhaps a trip to Toronto’s Sugar Beach will suffice.
Just ignore the snow. Oh, and no swimming allowed. Just in case you were going to go all “polar bear dip” on me.

What?? How can that be? Well, it’s not that Toronto real estate agents don’t want to Read the rest of this entry »

Front Door Fascination: Standing On The Corner of Pape & Eastern
November 20th, 2009 Categories: Front Door Fascination, Photographs
This is a surprisingly pretty entrance located on Toronto’s Eastern Avenue.
Why the surprise at such a pretty door? It’s just a little … unexpected. Eastern Avenue runs through what was once a very industrial area and although many of the factories (and sadly, the jobs) have long departed, the vibe is still somewhat hardscrabble.
I love how that particular shade of blue works so well with the yellow bricks. And especially that the planters are done up in the same shade of blue rather than trying to introduce a third colour. The old “less is more” notion. It just works! On second thought, it’s very Eastern Avenue.
