wow this is an amazing shot! just like Gotham City!
Posted by tom at October 5, 2007 03:56 AMIntresting indeed! I love how the light is breaking through the buildings.
Posted by Neil Redfern at October 5, 2007 04:13 AMVery atmospheric - I don't know how much has been burnt in but it's an eye-catching image.
Posted by lightseeker at October 5, 2007 08:12 AMStunning. Truly stunning.
The fogs/low clouds really make things interesting these days. I can't seem to get a good picture of it but it would be nice if you could take a picture just before sunrise when the fog just barely covers the houses...
Posted by Patrick at October 5, 2007 09:20 AMGreat!
Posted by Mr-Dott at October 5, 2007 09:38 AMyes it was very foggy all day.
Posted by Andrew at October 5, 2007 09:49 AMGreat, great shot Sam! It was a pretty crazy sjy, I'm glad you captured this.
Posted by Scott Murdoch at October 5, 2007 09:53 AMI was wandering around downtown after work yesterday... really wishing I had my camera. It was amazing... low, dark clouds to the east, flowing along and thinning out gradually to the west, cutting towers in half in a shroud of cloud, the CN Tower most notably. Kept thinkin' of Sam, "Hope he's getting some of this!"
Posted by modowd at October 5, 2007 09:57 AMVery cool. Looks like something from a scary movie.
Posted by Alice at October 5, 2007 10:04 AMSalut,
I, too, was stuck at work all day yesterday, but as soon as it was over, ran down to front street to take snaps; despite my perhaps overly-enthusiastic sarcasm and criticism, I was indeed curious to see what you came up with for the curious weather yesterday - I assume this is what your e-mail to me regarding my comment referred to
best,
Jono
Posted by Jono at October 5, 2007 10:18 AMLove it! the mood and atmosphere convey a sense of brooding and foreboding and imminent doom. This is my new favorite site. Love your work.
Posted by Krex at October 5, 2007 11:04 AMThe fog was very cool yesterday
great image Sam!
Posted by Brian at October 5, 2007 11:27 AMwow... truly stunning - and eerie!
I can't wait to come home to Toronto in a week!
The gradient effect is really cool. This photo is especially chilling if you have a small browser window and start at the top of the image (where you can only see the bird) and scroll down; the buildings seem to slowly appear out of nowhere. Great effect. Love the foggy feel of the buildings in the lower half too.
Posted by Ryan Rahn at October 5, 2007 12:14 PMYeah, it was really cool and misty yesterday. The fog made the rays of light quite visible too; I took some shots myself. I love the mood of this photo!*
Posted by Kimberly Way at October 5, 2007 12:56 PMOMFG, that's mind blowing awesome
Posted by Vishal Pipraiya at October 5, 2007 01:42 PMmy boyfriend said to me yesterday, "ddoi is going to have an insane photo tmr!" i asked why he thinks so. and he told me about the fog wrapping toronto. he was right!
Posted by j at October 5, 2007 02:00 PMJUST CRAZY !!!
Posted by mrg at October 5, 2007 04:44 PMIf am totally honest, most of your cityscapes do nothing for me as they lack any emotive or atmospheric context - but this one is completely different...a fantastic and unique shot!
Posted by seriocomic at October 5, 2007 05:09 PMcool picture, too bad it's polution! :/
Posted by nekro at October 5, 2007 08:51 PMWow! Thats an impressive sky, and the bird adds just the right touch, so to say defiance of nature against human technology.
Posted by Mikhail Yukhnovskiy at October 5, 2007 10:24 PMBeautiful! Love that the bird is flying right where the buildings disappear into the sky.
Posted by Serena at October 6, 2007 10:31 PMIs that a bird? Its huge! Do you know what kind of bird? The whole shot seems surreal from the paramount of fog and the bat esque bird.
Thanks for showing your work daily!
