Posted by bu11et at August 14, 2004 02:37 AMI work at Roy Thomson Hall - thanks for a fun new perspective of it! (Note to non-Torontonians.....it's a concert hall - the Toronto Symphony Orchestra performs there.) Many, many thanks again for sharing your sight and insight, Sam!
Posted by saku at August 14, 2004 03:53 AMWhat a view. The top of that concert hall looks just like a Chinese drum.

Posted by Henry at August 14, 2004 08:32 AMSuper photo.Thanks.
Posted by John at August 14, 2004 08:46 AMSeriously man, how'd u get that good of a shot from the skypod?? That's just plain awesome
Posted by Ben at August 14, 2004 09:45 AMwow, i really like this photo. i think it's one of your best really. the color is great, and i love all the geometry.
Posted by youyeysou at August 14, 2004 12:15 PMI love this -- the music hall looks like an inverted vegetable strainer (albeit a very shiny one with an amazing reflection), I think it's the inverted reflection and the itsy bitsy cars and humans that make this shot for me, nice!! =)
Posted by myla at August 14, 2004 01:19 PMGreat choice of time of day to take the shot, that just makes the colours more vibrant. I love the reflection that you can see in the "skirt" of Roy Thompson Hall. The zoom must have been powerful...you can really imagine what it feels like being a bird through this shot!! Love it!
Posted by Y at August 14, 2004 03:18 PMI can see the Peel Pub in the shot. THE best place to see a Leaf game on T.V.

Amazing shot Sam, putting those megapixels to good use ;)
Posted by Lorin Halpert at August 15, 2004 04:09 PMWow. The detail is stunning, especially considering that with using the kit lens and being so far away, this must have been cropped significantly. (Added interest for me is that the building I work in can be seen.) Great job!
