I'm not sure who this subway driver is this morning, but he definitely blessed our train with some smiles on a Monday. I missed the first bit of his Bathurst station announcement as I scrambled for my phone to record it.

What a great vibe to the start of the week, I miss back in the days when these kinds of diy announcements were more common.

Hope you all have a great start to your week, everybody! 🙂

Edit: Found him! Well, he found me actually! Fellow TTC riders, let me introduce you to Uncle Crawfy! 🥳

Yesterday was a tonne of fun, 20 of them to be exact, and a great challenge to solve of "how do I shoot a 45,000lb transformer core in such a way that it'll look awesome when printed and framed on the wall of the new corporate offices?".. Based on my client's reaction, I nailed it. 🔥👌

Me for scale, because I didn't have a banana.🍌

That first morning light in Toronto today outside of Union station at 645am.

Today started out really cloudy, but that quickly cleared up, and it's looking like a beautiful day ahead. 👌

This Thursday is global Vyshyvanka day, the day celebrating traditional Ukrainian embroidery. This year will mark the 10th anniversary of the Toronto walk, which will start at 630pm at Jane and Bloor and head east to High Park.

Here are a few of my photos from the event a couple of years ago.

Worst. Kinder. Surprise. Ever.

Made my way down to the McLaughlin Planetarium today as I got the tip yesterday morning that they had started demolishing the dome. By mid day today they'd already made solid progress, and in chatting with one of the guys on site, he said they expect to have it completely down by the end of next week.

Farewell to a Toronto landmark. 🪦

Who else caught that absolutely gorgeous sunset in Toronto this evening?

I almost missed it, but I looked outside at the right moment, and caught it with just enough time to grab my phone and snap a shot. 🔥🔥

Seeing how it's currently raining, I'm now even more thankful that the weather held up and it was so nice yesterday when I went to check out the cherry blossoms.

Thank you everybody for the love on yesterday's post, I got everything edited and put together a little post with some of my favorite shots from this year's peak bloom 🌸🌸

Check out some of my photos on my website:

I skipped High Park (or any blossoms) this weekend because I knew how insane the crowds always are, and I just hoped that the weather would hold out this weekend and not knock off the blooms by Monday.

Well, turns out I was pretty lucky, and this morning feels like it was the perfect time to go and see them without all the crowds.

Just wrapping up my edits, uploading some to the newswire, and then picking a few to share on social media. Pretty solid start to the week for this guy! 🙂🌸

For those in Toronto who are curious, I'll save you the trip down here.

This is the current status of the Cherry Blossoms in High Park as of 830am on Monday April 27th. 🌸

Decided to start my day, and my week, with a nice quiet walk through the park.

Have a great start to your week, everybody. 🙂

Breakin' through since '93.👌🔥

Fun fact about the old "Live Eye" truck smashing through the old CityTV headquarters. In the 1980's it was one of the first mobile news vehicles in Canada, and featured a built-in microwave transmitter, which allowed news reporters to broadcast live on location from anywhere.

After being saved from a scrap yard by CityTV co-founder, Moses Znaimer, he collaborated with artist Nigel Stanley, and in 1993 it was turned into an installation where it appeared to be coming through the wall of 299 Queen Street West. For the last 33 years it's been a fixture on Queen West, hopefully that never changes.
