Down Below

I went for a walk fairly far south tonight, a lot farther than normal at least. I had wanted to take some photos of the CN trainyard but I did not get a chance to investigate just how close I could get to it. Perhaps another day I will be able to do that. However, I did follow a small road that went under this bridge and really liked the location. The photos were not great, but the grittiness of the location worked well for me.





These pylons were simply impressive. I will have to come back and take more photos near them. However, the humming was a little off-putting.

Streets, parking lots and neat buildings

I went out on a photo mission last night but about 10 minutes after leaving I realized I had forgotten my SD card in my computer. I decided to do some investigation and found a few locations I liked so I decided to head out again tonight.  I am posting quite a few photos and I admit many of them are pretty mediocre but there is always something I like about each one, even if overall the photos did not work very well.

I just liked this building looming over Smyth Rd


Look down at the Transitway

They don't want me in here.

Danger, Danger, High Voltage...

I thought the clouds were pretty much perfect for taking photos of an industrial type location tonight. Very ominous looking.


This building is pretty nondescript from the front but I love the rest of it (also, it is full of cool switches and machinery. The view through the windows was rather tantalising)
