Before Covid

A flashback to the days of no face mask, no social distancing, and no lock downs.

St. Joseph Church

The Church is one of the focal points of present day Whitevale, Ontario. It was built to replace the Canadian Methodist Chapel built in 1854. Eventually the church was repurchased and converted to a Greek Orthodox Church.

Bus Stop

This is a common sight in rural areas. It is a mini shelter located beside the road at the end of a driveway. When the weather is bad the kids can wait inside for the school bus to arrive.

Snow Dusting

“Snowflakes are one of nature’s most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together.” – Vesta M. Kelly

Snow Leopard

A different kind of snow.

Just Enjoy The Ride

If you have the winter Blahs, I hope this scene brightens up your day.

Surviving Tough Times

For a person to become homeless, it usually means all other options have failed.
This leads to loneliness and hopelessness that can feel impossible to escape.

Sunday Sky

The beauty of sky and the world below it never fails to amaze me.

Looking back to the winter of 2014.

The Gutter #7

They say less than 9% of Canada’s plastic waste gets recycled. The rest ends up landfills, incinerators,
and the environment where it destroys ecosystems, leaches toxic chemicals, and harms wildlife.

Winter Storm

Yesterday Environment Canada issued a blizzard warning calling for up to 60 cm (23 inches) of snow. The driving conditions brought most of the highways to a standstill. Heavy snowfall and parked cars have impacted the snow clearing operations. There is still a possibility of more flurries today.

Monday Night

During the night the truckers are busy. This one has delivered the trailer and is unhitching his cab. If you can't see him look again.

Inside looking out at the sunset.

A Man And His Dog

Flash back to 2017. It was just by chance that I took this photo. It is my all time favourite.

There's a lot people that come here with their telephoto lens and tripods to photograph birds.

Sometimes I come across the strangest sights. Abandoned and wheels stolen.

A gentleman asked me "why are some barns painted green?" I told him they only do that when the green paint is on sale.

A flashback to a time when life was more simple.

Fred's Not Here

I took this photo in 2017 and decided now is the time to post it. Located in "The City Of Toronto" Fred's Not Here and the Red Tomato Restaurants closed their doors in August of 2019 to make way for a condominium development.

Winter Swan

Yesterday I was surprised to see so many Mute Swans on the bay. It was a cold day, -9°C (15.8 F). Normally there are only few die hard swans that stay here over winter.

Monday Night

Tiered parking at the Go Transit bus and train station. The parking is free on a first come, first served basis.
