[PHOTO] My best nine of 2017 (#2017bestnine)

[PHOTO] Rosedale, for Flickr's Your Best Shot 2017

After due consideration, I selected the above photo--"Rosedale", shared by me on my blog in August in the post "Rosedale in evening"--as my submission to Flickr's Your Best Shot 2017. I liked the shot's composition and the colour, and so did Flickr. So: here it is.

[PHOTO] Twelve photos of the last day of Eliot's Bookshop (#eliotsbookshop)

Eliot's Bookshop was a bit crowded on its final day of operation, all books going for $C 1 eacha. It is testament to the store's inventory that it remained as full as it is now. With this store's departure, a key node of Yonge Street will be gone for me and many others. After I paid for my last purchase, I made sure to thank the owner for his business' many years of operation.
