Lightly Ascending spin

This may be filed under "It IS my photo-blog so I can do what I like"... The straight shot of this sculpture didn't do the curves and shadows justice, so instead I tried to work with the motion by making the spiral.

This wonderful sculpture is "Lightly Ascending" by Yoshiko Sunahara, 1990. I've posted a the original shot of the sculpture here on my Flickr account

Mount Pleasant Cemetery

The Mount Pleasant Cemetery is a vast cemetery in the middle of Toronto known for its wide collection of trees. Designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 2000, Mount Pleasant Cemetery in Toronto was opened on November 4, 1876. It was designed by landscape gardener H. A. Englehardt to include 'winding paths and roads, irregularly shaped islets, panoramic perspectives, and monuments inserted in a naturalistic setting enriched by a wide variety of groves and trees.'

about seemsArtless

This is my long standing photoblog - think Instagram before Instagram. Back in 2004 I bought a Canon digital 10D with a great lens, and thought I'd force myself to take lots of pictures. The site contains more than 1,300 photos, so safe to say I have the quantity part taken care of.

Be sure to say hi if you see me on the street!
