Description

I did a walk about in the Queen Street West area of Toronto yesterday and was surprised by some of the decrepit buildings. IT's such an upscale area now, full of hip retail shops and new rising condos.

Here's what's tucked in behind the new.

Exif: F Number: 20, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/125 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 320, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 90.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 7D

Great urban capture Marilyn, someone tried to change the look by poorly spraying that awlful green all over everthing. Glad that worker wasn't standing there with coffee cup in hand then, lol.. #1441971

Well, it's colorful for sure. I guess there's always room for renovation. #9971116

I can easily ditto RJ's comment - you do have this amazing eye to recognize an excellent photo opp when others would just pass it by. Like a photo angel is tapping you on the shoulder and saying..."Ummm, Marilyn, take a look over there!" :) :) No exception here! Well seen and taken! #9971206
