Monday Mural


Usually murals are painted on blank walls
I like that this is a fish on a fence.
found in the arts rich St James Street North area of Hamilton where 'art is the new steel'
more murals here, here and where it all started, here

Groceries at the Gardens

The new Loblaws store at Maple Leaf Gardens is now open. Never has so much fanfare and excitement been seen for a supermarket! 
All is sunny and bright again at Church and Carlton in Toronto.

T is for tiffin

the window of Tiffins 'Curry in a Hurry' restaurant
In India, tiffin means a hot, light meal or snack.
It also refers to these metal containers used to carry prepared food
These great little environmentally friendly stackable stainless steel tins are designed for lunch or picnic boxes but are also ideal for storing coffee, tea, sugar, spices or whatever you like. Each tier fits snuggly on top of each other and secured with a clasp on either side with a separate lid for the top.
The handle clips it all together.

crumbling

crossing the Grand River, this is one bridge desperately in need of repair.
as seen last July, I wonder what shape it will be in by winter's end?

The Long Shot

'In the 1994 Bell Canadian Open Pro-Am, 
John Daly drove his ball into 16-mile creek from this tee. 
Total distance 390 yards'

'Good Luck and please enjoy one of the most famous tee shots in Canadian Golf'

Monday Mural

Dupont Station
One of the murals by James Sutherland, entitled Spadina Summer Under All Seasons. Two large mosaics of a giant flower in cross-section, made with thousands of pieces of glass directly into the station’s tiling, face each other across the tracks.
I'm taking a cue from Andy at Occupied with Photography who posts a mural each Monday. Since he is an ex TTC driver, I thought I'd start with a subway mural.

and just for fun, a different angle of the same view with the fall colours 
on the right is with Orton post processing to make it softer and more vibrant
