The Aftermath

Posted by Damon Schreiber (Toronto, Canada) on 15 February 2007 in Cityscape & Urban and Portfolio.

I hope you love me when I'm old...

Hi-res here.

[Bloor near Clinton, Toronto - I'm running out of things to photograph in this area - it's right down from the Metro Cinema and you can see the reflection of the Bloor Fruit Market in the window.]

Bronnie from Christchurch, New Zealand

Wonderful colours in this image, and I like the contrast between that barbie pink and the elderly woman and her walker...

@Bronnie: Thanks Bronnie! I'd been staking out this shop for a few days trying to find a moment when no parked cars were blocking the view. I loved the contrast between the image of youth and the woman walking past.

Untitled from Kyoto, Japan

Like this a lot...tells a story (albeit mournful!)...good title!

@Untitled: Thanks, Shadow. Not necessarily a mournful story, but a true one. Even Sir Paul finds himself alone at 64.

Stu from Kyoto, Japan

Wonderful image and perfect title. Super thematic contrast.

@Stu: Thanks, Stu! Contrast is a good thing.

Darren from Japan

Nce shot mate. Sorry for the lack of visits of late, have been quite busy.
Love how bright that pink window dress has come out in this shot.

@Darren: No trouble, Darren. I know how aminus3 can be a real time-sucker if one's not careful. The key is pacing so we don't all get burnt out. Thanks, for the comment - it really was that bright!

Marwan from Rolle, Switzerland

great idea and story... pink invasion here

@Marwan: Thanks, Marwan!

Martine Lapointe from Québec, Canada

Hi Damon! Nice love and contrast shot!

@Martine Lapointe: Glad to see you back, Martine! I'll come by and look at your new photos soon.

Still from Valence, France

A strong image!

@Still: Merci, Still!

Angry Buddha from United States

Very nice work.

@Angry Buddha: Thanks, Sean!

H.O from Victoria, Canada

Happy V-day :)

@H.O: You too, Hiro!

Duncan Galbraith from kyoto, Japan

Hey Damon! apologies for the lateness of comms. you know the score. A nice end to the series. I know what you mean about running out of shooting grounds (immediately accessible ones anyway). The reflection forms a nice little circle in my mind though. As if she's off to visit that very market herself.

@Duncan Galbraith: Hey, no need for apologies! I'm sure I'm equally 'guilty', and anyway, I always appreciate you stopping by. I imagine someday someone from Am3 might visit this patch of Toronto and be shocked to find so many of my shots in a 2 block radius. Landmarks to me at least :) The good news is that I just have to move two block over, and voila: fresh shooting grounds! Thanks for the comment!

Lucca from Cologne, Germany

It's both: the contrast and the similar things. I like the trousers of the woman with the car which has almoust the same color as the wall. Nice shot!

@Lucca: Ah, you noticed that! Thanks, Lucca!
