Is it so people can sit and watch the adverts? ;-)

I like the comp and colors here. And the wet ground just makes the photo with the reflections. Excellent!

Beautiful. I love the detail on those wet tiles.

i almost wish the photo was cropped to show only the bottom half-- we'd be left wondering what the rainy reflections were of...

A stunning photo. Very movie-like.
I half expect Hancock to come flying out of the clouds and land in the square, purhaps even take a rest on that chair.

But living in Japan as I do, I'd like to pass a warning about flooding the city full of too much cememnt and too many roof top advertisements. It can get out of hand. Toronto is one of the most beautiful cities in the world, for its parks, trees, grass (grass is almost non-existant over here), and waterfront. I hope Toronto never loses them.

I agree, this would have been a great photo if it was just the chair and reflections on the wet granite. Unfortunately it's just another image of the garish toronto life centre.

Nice photo Sam, as always. I was in the square the other day after it rained and it all seemed so grey. You did a really nice job capturing the colour in the reflections. :)

nothing like singing or sitting in the rain. The chair reflection on the ground along with the surroundings is awesome.

Sweet photo. The colour's and reflection are great.
The combo of lights, city and rain make for wonderful photography.

I have to agree that a closer crop may have made a more compelling image. (Note I said "may").

Great shot anyway,
Glen.
