love the low angle!
Posted by david kleinert at January 16, 2007 02:50 AMGreat perspective. And oh, how I miss the World's Biggest Bookstore!!
Posted by florence98 at January 16, 2007 03:03 AMThat is so wild. How'd you get so low? Did you get down, small tripod? Something else? Excellent job though!
Posted by P.J. at January 16, 2007 03:11 AMNice to see some snow. We haven't had any yet in MA.
Posted by david at January 16, 2007 03:46 AMWell, i think this is a very powerful shot. I hope your camera is ok ;)Greetings from Germany
Posted by kwerfeldein at January 16, 2007 04:56 AMGorgeous photo. i love this perspective.
Posted by lynn at January 16, 2007 06:08 AMNice perspective. We had our 3rd snow last night, which for the Maritimes is a ridiculously small amount!
Posted by Ash at January 16, 2007 07:40 AMLooks dirty already. The city soot quickly settles on the white mantle, and the cars churn away at it.
I guess this is a down to earth shot. Or is it down to snow?
Posted by Hugh Petrie at January 16, 2007 08:32 AMFantastic Sam. I hate to think about how wet you got taking this. We've had no snow yet at all here in NW Connecticut. But, of course, there's no such thing as global warming. Gad, the shame of it. This is a great image in so many ways: color, dof, perspective. Great.
Posted by Richard at January 16, 2007 08:51 AMDon't you mean pretty late in the season? :)
Really awesome perspective, what did you do put the cam in the snow? That's awesome man!
Posted by chad at January 16, 2007 09:06 AMFirst snow?
We've had four snows here in downtown Vancouver. Some years we are lucky to get one!
Posted by Joel at January 16, 2007 10:43 AMGreat perspective!
Posted by Neil at January 16, 2007 12:19 PMA snowball's view of the world. And there is the World's Biggest Book Store. A favourite haunt. I'm surprised that it has not been replaced with a 70 story condo tower.
Posted by matthew at January 16, 2007 12:40 PMsuperb! That snow looks almost edible (even though I know how gross it must really be). Very clever to shoot from the ground!
Great angle! The texture and lines in the snow are phenomenal.
Posted by Billy at January 16, 2007 02:31 PMthat's a little too close to the slush for me. Cool perspective!!!
Posted by pixels.in.my.head at January 16, 2007 04:27 PMIs that the Atrium? I miss Toronto so much. I really love the way the light from the streetlight makes that tree glow.
Posted by Amanda at January 16, 2007 04:28 PMIt looks like slush.
I wish it would snow here in America, but Ohio is not north enough.
What an interesting viewpoint! I hope you had a someone looking out for cars while you were getting this shot :P
Posted by Lea at January 16, 2007 06:19 PMThat is such a cool photo - I love the perspective.
Posted by Kate S at January 16, 2007 07:16 PMand we had an ICE/SNOW day. day off for me.
but its great to finally have snow.
Posted by Calogero at January 16, 2007 10:02 PMVery nice angle...I like the horizontal line that separates the photo into to equal but totally different sections...
Posted by nariman at January 16, 2007 10:42 PMGreat angle! Damn, I miss the AOB building. I used to work in that place...
Posted by Eugene Kuleshov at January 16, 2007 11:19 PMthis is an awesome shot!
Posted by TAKUHITO sotome at January 17, 2007 02:16 AMjust FYI... the first snow was in October, the second was in early/mid december. this is our third snow ;)

Posted by Angel Sosa at January 17, 2007 08:38 PMBravo! Tres rare que l'on puisse apprécier une si petite quantité de neige pas trop blanche en ville.

Posted by Accent Grave at January 19, 2007 08:30 AMI love popcorn!
Posted by aa at January 19, 2007 09:59 AMFantastic low perspective! I think the dof is perfect; the out of focus foreground really makes the rest of the foto pop.
