    Business as usual

    Taken earlier this fall in front of the Eaton Center on Queen Street here in downtown Toronto.
    After chatting with a street busker whom I'd seen numerous times before, when I squatted down to take his picture and also saw the Jehovah's Witnesses in the background spreading The Word from their usual spot, I realized that it was just another day here in the downtown. And grabbed this shot.

    Nicely captured, good angle. Who was the pup giving the eye to?

    Thanks, John.
    The pup was eyeing another photographer to my right and behind me. The other fellow was using a Canon Digital camera which obviously agitated the dog.

    Maurice,
    Thanks. For me, the point of my photography is to tell stories with pictures, so your comment makes me feel that this image is a success.

    It is to me too...too many stories to tell there and too many questions left unasked and therefore no answers. Just delighted in what was there in the first place and letting my eyes roam each corner of that street within the frame. 'Must be cold already your way there...

    Thanks Izzie.
    Glad you enjoyed the shot.
    And yes, it is cold here. Temperature right now is about -2 Celcius, with about 15 cm of snow due tonight.
