I think a picture blog is a wonderful idea. However I wish I could see where these were taken.

Posted by mg at July 3, 2013 08:11 AMThese shots sum up what you do best: show us our world (esp. Toronto) so we don't take it for granted, so we see it in new ways. Thanks for helping us see!
Posted by Patricia at July 3, 2013 08:44 AMSam,
I first stumbled across DDOI after visiting and falling in love with Toronto on my honeymoon in 2005. My wife and I loved the city so much we visited again the following year, this time with the knowledge and experience garnered through your wonderful photographs to guide us to some of the more interesting sights around the city.
I will deeply miss my daily glimpse at life in a truly wonderful city brought to life so vividly and lovingly in your irreplacable photoblog.
DDOI thank you and good bye.
Nathan

(for lucky creatures : ninety+)

it was a chain of 1/500 sec - f 11-moments
(datas convertible)
thanks for some shared years, Sam Javanrouh……
i wonder what you’ll create in the following decades.
We'll miss ddoi !
We hope you’ll miss ddoc ?
“we’ve grown accustomed to your pics…
you always made our day begin…”
thanks, Sam
Posted by a fan in the crowd and others at July 3, 2013 10:34 AMpublishing one good to excellent picture…
every night…
in best technical quality…
for 10 (imagine : T E N) years!!
what a stamina!
what a power of endurance!
what tons of discipline!
what a photosensing fire inside!
thank you
see you
“words didn’t come in an easy way…”
because it’s not my native tongue!
thank you for the inspiration for searching, hopefully finding the right words
to express my emotions.
Commenting sometimes was rather time-consuming.
Often is was a hard struggle for choosing the right words,
Always it was JOY.
As aplenty others did:
the first web page we vistited every morning was ddoi.
It was a routine, a rite, a procedure.
thank you for this years
I'm really going to miss these. Thanks so much for sharing your view of the city.
thank you, Sam.
you posted photography
not only discussed and praised for its highly sophisticated technique
but simply loved because of its philantrophy way that touched the hearts so often.
Sometimes so hard that it hurts.
You have fans in so many countries
and the array of your work is so dazzling.
Imagine what worlswide breathlessness there was sometimes
when you posted one of those great architecture photos.
Or an „unisono“ smile when there was one of your warmhearted streets.
But when you posted a funny picture :
what a the laughter there was around the globe!
Amusing thoughts, aren’t they?
thank you and good bye!
Don’t cry that it’s gone.
Be happy that it was, dear co-admirers!
*sobb*
Feel a little bit unburdened that it’s over, Sam!
*smile*
And thanks to your wife for beeing sympathetic about sharing so much time with us.
*double smile + hug*
Sam,
wanting to comment your pics
forced me to find the equivalent words in english
to express my german thoughts.
I hope that it was not too often a mis-take or “de-la-salade”.
Lucky you, YOUR language needs no words.
Adoration and thank
from
Samfan & crew
I can't believe tomorrow is the last day, already! I'll miss coming to your website every day, Sam.
Will you be keeping the website up? I only heard about your site in 2010 and would like to go back through all the photos from day 1!
Posted by Sam at July 3, 2013 11:03 AMThanks for the many years of daily pictures. It truly has been inspiring!
Posted by Norm at July 3, 2013 11:03 AMDear Sam,
it really was a pretty good time with ddoi every morning.
One photo every day.
Just ONE picture to see and to concentrate on and to think about.
An experience in our world and it’s barrage of images.
Mostly I stayed longer, much longer than the proverbal one second
(as proof of a "good" picture; who - the hell - said this?) and made eye-walks in the square.
At some days I came back several times to your blog
and always my thoughts or feelings had changed a little bit
or I found a new detail in the picture
or another consideration ...
Thank you for all this!
Barbara
PS
best of all :
they say my own photos became better.
as we say in Germany :
"contact parts color"
(good friends bear good fruits)
:-))
Oh c'mon, my start page for years !!
Love your work =)
DDOI has been my Homepage for many years. Your regular presence will be sorely missed.
Posted by G Winkworth at July 3, 2013 11:27 AMThanks for everything Sam. Your photographs have made me feel more connected to Toronto than anything else.
Posted by Patrick at July 3, 2013 11:35 AMHope we'll not be confronted with a break!
Sam, I posted the flat automobiles!

Please, please, please, ...... Leave this site up/ intact/ available.... so we can revisit the archives!??
Those are beautiful. You will be missed! I will keep an eye out for you link tomorrow.
Posted by N at July 3, 2013 12:54 PMHi Sam,
I found your site back in 2009 when someone on a "Forever Knight" discussion list posted a link. I've been visiting ever since, and I just wanted you to know how much I've enjoyed your photographs. Thank you so much for sharing!
Hi Sam,
I've been a nearly daily reader for over 5 years. Thank you for contributing such wonderful content for so long. I'm going to miss this.
My Kiwi brother-in-law lives north of Toronto. In a strange way DDOI helps us keep in touch with him in Canada as we see the passing of the seasons through your magnificent talent.
You also inspire us all to pursue quality photography in everyday things.
We will miss your daily posts very much and will be sad to lose this link unique with Canada.
All the best Sam.

- the hell -
is the comment of Hugh Petrie?
Thank you for all this!
Posted by hifi at July 3, 2013 08:09 PMO Sam, what irony! So many of those that have loved your photos are trying to express their gratitude with mere words -- I also thank you. Today we bought a graduation present for my daughter (a graduate of the University of Toronto) at her request, a camera. She also followed your site. For five years we keep watch over her and her city from a distance through your work. Grace to you in your next journey; "we meet our destiny on the road we take to avoid it."
Posted by DJ at July 3, 2013 09:30 PMThank you for sharing, all the best!
Posted by Victoria at July 3, 2013 09:43 PMThanks for all the years of photos, Sam! Glad to have bumped into you on the street while you were shooting last year. All the best on your next adventure!
Posted by Janet at July 3, 2013 10:05 PMI remember months ago you said DDOI was ending and I was sad then. I'm even more sad now that that day is tomorrow. I have you followed on FB and will follow you where ever you end up! Best of luck in your future endeavors and don't keep the lens cap on.
