Old Toronto Snowfall
A gentle snowfall coats the streets surrounding the Gooderham Flatiron Building in Toronto where people are rushing home to shelter from the forecasted heavy snow in the coming hour.

Toronto Winter Twilight
A silent glimpse into Old Toronto when the snow has slowed to a gentle fall, and the twilight is welcomed with lamplight. The Gooderham Flatiron Building with the atypically empty streets of a city in pandemic times.

Flatiron Snow Globe
I've waited years for a once-in-a-century snowfall like this to take this photo. The Gooderham Flatiron Building has been photographed in so many ways but I've always wanted to shoot it in blinding snow to create this snow globe effect. And after 4 hours on location in gusty winds and freezing temps during the last big storm, the heavy flakes began to drop just as the street lights came on, and I hadn't been this excited to see snow since I was a little boy with a toboggan. And now for hot chocolate! :D

Toronto's Crown of Downtown
The St. Lawrence Market District is one of the best preserved architectural areas of Toronto, and by far, the crown jewel of this historical site is the Gooderham Flatiron Building seen here in its 131st winter.

A Seat in the Snow
Walloped with back-to-back snowstorms in a single week, Toronto streets haven't been this buried since 1999. The park bench, though, is noticeably clear as a frequent rest stop for the unfortunate folks who call this street "home". In fact, as I lay in this snow bank to capture this view of our iconic Flatiron Building, a compassionate woman approached me to make sure I was alright. Gotta love this city! :D

Night Moves
Driving home late one night, I was taken aback by the solitude of the Queen Street Bridge with almost no traffic except the occasional streetcar. It was very quiet and still with a light mist following a warm summer rain, and I couldn't help but notice the early 20th Century industrial-age feel of the scene, and had to juxtapose it with the 21st Century LED lighting of the new Toronto streetcars.

Toronto Gold Reflection
Toronto gold in panoramic reflection. As the sun sets behind the Toronto skyline on this scorching hot summer evening, the Toronto skyline lights up for the approaching night in a sea of golden glimmer, and casts a shimmering reflection across the Toronto Harbour.

Thank you, Daniel! Much appreciated! :D |
Summer in the City
A hot summer evening in Toronto, and the sun is illuminating the warm harbour haze from behind the skyline to produce the most amazing graduated colours. Toronto Skyline Summer Sunset is one of those magic moments you capture when you venture to the Toronto Harbour on a mid-summer evening just as the sun drops behind the skyline to meld its orange and yellow glow with the sliver of blue left in the sky to produce this purple haze in the atmosphere for just a few minutes. Photographers and tourists were gathered here in droves until the sun disappeared, but I knew to hold on a while longer, because this is when the magic happens!

Lost in Time Winter Homestead
A field of tall wheat buried in two feet of snow, and a long-forgotten homestead time forgot, while the elements of nature slowly reclaim for the soil from which it was made.

Moon Over the Lifeguard Station
Full moon rising over the Leuty Lifeguard Station, one of Toronto’s most iconic landmarks since 1920.
This photo of "the Station" was taken not long after Toronto's Beach Residents celebrated its 100th year anniversary with a plaque commemorating the milestone, as well as safeguarding it as an official historic treasure.
Lifeguards based here are credited with saving more than 6,000 lives, and it continues its service still today. In fact, two former lifeguards have been friends of mine and of my family for many years, one of whom raised the funds needed to save and restore the old Leuty, and the other who has recently purchased a copy of this print.

Autumn Train of Uxbridge
While in the small town of Uxbridge, Ontario, photographing a friend's horses, I drove through town where I came across the old rail yard and this train car abandoned at the end of its useful life. Grey and weathered with age, it spoke to me of a vibrant history well-travelled, and meaningful memories for the thousands of passenger it carried.
