A Weekend Exploration III
I finished off capturing the sculptures in and around Baycrest Hospital and moved on to other locations. I found my way to Don Mills and eventually down by the Ontario Science Center. By this time I was cold and tired and ready to go home. I will be returning to the Science Center some time shortly, and this time I will be bringing my tripod for some night shots. If it isn't snowing.

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: Earl Bales Park 4
Yeah, I know. I said that I was going to be showing my next roll of film. Technical difficulties have delayed that for the moment. Forgot to clean the scanner bed and it caused some interesting artifacts that I thought were from development. So I will finish up with the photo walk and get those negatives scanned over the weekend.
So the fox...which aren't related to cats, as a fellow walker told me...we finished up taking copious pictures of the young thing and carried on for the final climb out of the ravine. We paused half way for the as always group shot and then made our way to Yonge street. Since it was a small crowd we decided to duke through the North York cemetary. Generally we avoid places like that with large groups. The grounds keepers tend to get annoyed for some reason. It was a good decision, found some WW2 artillery pieces. After that we wandered up to Mel Lastman Square then called it a day and headed to the pub.
It was a hot day, a long day, but a good day. A lot of surprises along the way and everyone enjoyed themselves. Can't wait for the next one.
