I was wonderi0g past midnight on this warm summer night along Dupont west to the West Toronto Railpath, where the pedestrian and rail bridges stretch over the muraled street below.

Friday afternoon, I took myself on a leisurely walk south, down Dovercourt Road and then--above Bloor--down Ossington Avenue to Queen Street. It was a fine summer walk, taking me through an ever-changing string of neighbourhoods that is still familiar, ending with the Antikka coffee shop on Queen. The final photo was taken to the west of this, at the Lumber Loop where Queen streetcar passengers need to transfer to get to Long Branch, the towers of Humber Bay Shores always visible just beyond.

While I was waiting for my bus to work this morning, my eye was caught by the sunflower that had grown up at the base of the pole marking the Dupont street stop southbound for the 29 Dufferin bus, sprouting up out of the pavement to blossom.

Dupont and Lansdowne is an intersection at the heart of an emerging cluster of high-rises, some of which are at least eye-catching.

The sky yesterday morning tended towards a perfect clear blue.
