James posted a tall tree pic the other day  well okay it's not a tree but it's what you'd expect to find in the city... It's a street sign beside a small gas bar and convenience mall (a little late in the day for sunlight and too early for the lights to be turned on)  |

LOL... an image of our modern urban jungle, eh? I like it. What... were you lying on your back in the parking lot? I particularly like the perspective with a slight tip to the right (and doesn't business/consumerism lean to the right?). It seems to be pointing to something but unfortunately there is nothing above it (i.e. Boeing Dreamliner).

Wells meets P.T. Barnum |

I'm a guy who loves his lines. And I love the lines (hydro) leading from the "monster" in all directions. But when you pause to think about it, this sort of marketing is really a blight on our environment.

Wow... that is just nasty. BUT... I'm glad you included the surrounding scene to give it some perspective. I wonder if the inside is a gaudy as the exterior?

"I wonder if the inside is a gaudy as the exterior?" good question James.. next time you're in town, you can go in and have a look around for us.  |

Steeles and Yonge don't have a corner on graffiti. Here's how they do it elsewhere:  |

Steeles and Yonge don't have a corner on graffiti. Here's how they do it elsewhere: painting all that must be a lot of work... and expense, for what? You can't even read nor understand what these jokers are saying... at least back in the day, I could understand the insult. that's quite the pic... everything is in focus. How'd you do that? |

The mighty C663 did it. An awesome little gem, isn't it.
