A Weekend Exploration
I tend to go to other neighborhoods and explore them. One weekend I ended up exploring my neighborhood and then branched out. Yeah, I have been neglecting close to home. Up the road not far is a hospital. Baycrest Hospital to be exact. On their grounds, easily accessible from the street, they have quite a few sculptures for viewing. Too be honest I stumbled upon them by accident when I was playing a new game called Ingress.
So, here's the start of some of the pieces I found. Note to self, as well, don't forget to check the Dittwald Collection when trying to locate more areas to explore.

Toronto Photo Walks: St. Clair Yorkville
The muse is starting to come through. I recently downloaded a software package called "OnOne Perfect Photo Suite 7". A on it's one or add on to Lightroom and Photoshop. I will be messing around with it from time to time. I used the "Perfect Black and White" add on to process the first three pictures here. I liked how it worked and they turned out. Anyway...
Near the end of December was another photowalk. I showed up late because of a late party the night before. It was cold out, at least the sun was nice for stark images. I wandered from Summerhill Station to where the rest of the group was. Eventually moving through Yorkville and ending up at the pub for eats and heat.![The Platform](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_s6B9FC2_E_yVfATCwVKYALIQCRtz4aCz5Ak-FnjEIQ0PXyJxHiddMPKQTdAwt2TYpR1hkZoB-5TUwrZ8ALyAt_g_UZ-fGo0PwGXHQNSj9UV_HOSv1cpXWTxePhaozPwg=s0-d)

December Flickr Meet Up
Well, back to the grind. I have tracked down my muse, hog tied her, and put her too work. The ropes come off once I produce. At least that's the bargain so far. So, where are we now? Back about the second week of December was a Flickr meet up at Factory Girl on Danforth. Good place, good atmosphere, tricky lighting.
One of my friends brought a present for another friend and that's all she wrote for photography. The present was a home made stuffed devil that was promptly named eDwarD by the receiver. Much merriment followed for the rest of the evening.
