Comments: brick landscape

Nice contrast between interesting/beautiful and just plain boring/ugly graffiti. Beautiful tonality in the picture.

How sad that someone puts grafitti on an artistic effort. The messing of this place is - sensless - like so many grafitti works.

Sure is a struggle to make and keep the world tidy and pleasant. So many seem to prefer mess and violence.

lovely example of taking the mundane and making it into something eye-catching :)

seems busy, and a little not straight.

Thanks for the Toronto photos. I really enjoy them. It’s like being there again. I miss Toronto — walking its streets of various neighborhoods. Nothing quite like home, is there.

I love your urban pictures. They are always filled with every element that creates the real spontaneous setup that life creates in the city. No time for cliché or the structured architecture. Only time and life evolving.

Really like this phot. Probably my favourite our of all the ones you;ve done. It makes things seem real.

I think your street scenes never get the credit they deserve. Extremely key post processing with the lighting Sam, you nail it every time. Perfect selection of curves and shadow / highlights.

In Vancouver, we have a very similar mural (nearly identical) on the corner of Main and Hastings. It was a community project of the downtown Eastside (district with lowest average household income).

This is the kind of foto that first made me interested in photography: urban streets with lots of brick and buildings in disrepair. Very nicely captured, Sam!

This is, if I'm not mistaken, not an alley, but Denison Ave. at the corner of Queen west. I used to turn here to get to my apartment on Wolseley St.
