Flying Overhead

These planes fly over Airport Road in Toronto.  The noise is deafening and the planes seem to all of a sudden appear overhead.

Orange car


The Orange Car

This cool car was in the parking lot at Vistek when I came out after purchasing a new
Canon 200mm lens.  A coincidence?  I think not.  What a neat way to try out the new lens.  So far the lens has not disappointed.  It is a great "walk around" lens just like Gary at Vistek said it would be.  Great lens for panned out shots and very good zoom to get up close on the same shot.  It sure beats changing lenses all the time!  Anyway more about the car - it is an orange car, very small but sporty.  There were a few chips on the back bumper which were quickly fixed with the bandaid icon on Photoshop Elements 8 - the healing brush tool.  I think I like the car thing - very sleek photos.  I will experiment more in this area soon.

Cell phone violation ticket by horse



This is what you get when you think no one is looking!  Two Toronto policemen mounted unit caught this driver on his cell phone.  What a neat way to catch 'em when they least expect it.  It will make for a good story when he tells his friends but he won't be laughing when he has to pay the ticket!!

Papillion toy spaniel


Papillion toy spaniel, originally uploaded by Moments 4 me.
This cute little Papillion dog caught my attention at a PawsWay demonstration at Harbourfront Toronto. His little tongue hanging out really made him stand out in the crowd. At first I thought he was just thirsty but it was not so - this is how he looks all the time. PawsWay has free demonstrations almost every weekend. They have the Purina Animal Hall of Fame and other exhibits in their large facility. Dogs are welcome.

Sleek Boxer



On June 27th about 4pm, this beauty was sitting waiting for its owner to return.  Just down the street is the temporary jail for the G20 Summit protesters and there are more noisy protesters outside.  He looks uneasy - he is the picture of Toronto after the G20 weekend.

Toronto Zoo

We were invited to Stingray Bay breakfast at the Toronto Zoo with our City councillor.  Jim got caught up in the gorilla's antics.  You can see why.......


Ngozi and Nassir.  Nassir clings to mom as she makes her way around making sure everyone is behaving.
Little Nassir can play while Mom keeps watch.
