Totally awesome. Love the colors and silhouette.

Posted by Bart at September 15, 2005 02:18 AMi enjoy the warm tone ,,,,, nice shot !
Posted by M Reza at September 15, 2005 02:39 AMSam, how do you decide on the exposure. do you trust your eye or do you carry a light meter with you at all times. And on an average how many tries does it take you to get the pic you want (in terms of the light).

Posted by CurlyToes at September 15, 2005 04:10 AMThere's something about catching another photographer in a photo, that is taking a shot of the same thing you are, that just make it so much better. Excellent Sam.
Posted by Nate at September 15, 2005 06:37 AMi like this shot alot. i would like it more without the biker.
Posted by tee at September 15, 2005 06:40 AMVery nice pic. The Tommy Thompson park (or Leslie Spit as its also called) is such a great place to go biking and walking. It provides a great view of the city and lets you escape all the traffic.

http://upperleft.twentyfives.com/index.php?showimage=38) Imposter may have been a poor choice of words on my part, but I thought it was just coincidental that there was a blog entitled so close to the world's best photoblog. We're all inspired by Sam to share our love of photography. No hard feelings Mike.
Delicious colours. Caption should read: "a biker stops to photograph a biker stopping to photograph the cn tower in sunset. tommy thompson park, toronto."

Posted by Jerry Aulenbach at September 15, 2005 10:19 AMVery interesting - it gives you the feeling of such a summer evening.
It seems also quite like not Toronto, rather resambling Vancouver. This perspective really changes a lot.

as usual, i love your fotos...i haven't been here in a while, but I see you continue to do so well. It's fantastic how beautiful smog can be. take care
Posted by dan at September 15, 2005 01:25 PMIt kind of reminds me of Vancouver too-- Minus the mountains of course :) But it has that outdoorsy feel you get in the west...
Posted by Viking054 at September 15, 2005 01:53 PMWonderful shot.
Posted by Ayan at September 15, 2005 04:11 PMMaybe it should say...A photographer stops to take a picture of a photographer taking a picture of a sunset.
:)
Posted by Heidi at September 15, 2005 04:38 PMNice to see a person in the image. It's not always easy to get people into some shots that would be better with them. Catch as catch can is so much the rule. Lookin' good here, Sam.
