King & University, Toronto

An interesting study in distortions - the kind of reflections in imperfect mirrors, and the kind where the subject is in motion. Or is the 'subject" an unwanted photo-bomber?

Thanks, Bob. I was at full zoom, so I don't think the photobomber knew I was there. I was just fishing while sitting down and re-hydrating. I wanted people in the shots I took at various widths, and this one turned out the best.

It is amazing viewed large. I love the distorted reflections and the out of focus passer by.

Thanks, Jean. I could have increased the ISO to slow the jogger down, I suppose, but that didn't occur to me. It's probably for the good that I didn't, since the blurred jogger adds some movement.

Brilliant!

Thanks, Andy.

Fabulous street shot!

Very good shot .
Magnificent buildings, colors and detail.

Thanks, José.

Lots of lovely contrast between horizontal and vertical lines.............and distorted horizontal and vertical lines and some interesting light and shadows.

Thanks, Keith. This may be where Frank Gehry got ythe inspiration for Fred and Ginger. Well, I just checked, and Fred and Ginger predates the Art Gallery of Ontario, which Gehry started renovating in 2004. But he is from Toronto, so he could have been visiting, eh?

Multi-layered expose of disorientation in a world of information overload

To add to the confusion, Sarah, the building behind my back here is pretty much the mirror image of the building on the left.

J'aime les reflets déformés, du plus bel effet !

Thanks, Eve.

Multiplikatoren rundum!

Good point, Gisela. One of the reasons it's good to have a person in there.

Très esthétique...! Ce brave " étudiant " semble effaré par ce monde qu'il va devoir affronter !!

Many Canadians who live outside Toronto are terrified of it, Robert.

All the glamour and energy of a city in one shot. Bewilderment in the midst of pattern.

Something city-dwellers tend not to realize till they go to another city.

Gorgeous. She seems to be escaping, though. Or, he. It's a mystery.

That's what I like about him/her, Diane -- the mystery s/he adds.

Wow. Busy but encapsulates urban chaos wonderfully. Well done!
