Walkabout: Toronto

Last week I was in Toronto visiting friends and family. I had a chance to walk around some of my favourite neighbourhoods.

Kensington Market: I used to live near here when I was a student at the University of Toronto, and Sunday afternoon strolls to pick up fruit, veggies and cheese were common. I haven't been here in probably 15 years, so it was good to see that many of the classic shops are still there (like Cheese Magic and Courage my Love).
















Chinatown - the place to go for happy meat and dumplings:







Centre Island: Whoa. Did I have major flashbacks to my childhood while visiting the island. This place is a 70s time capsule.

  3. Great photos, I love the shallow DOF, it gives the photos a really dreamy look. I love the one of the grey car, and the viewfinder reminds me of an Alex Colville painting.

    Have a great weekend :)
