Entering at Dufferin Station #toronto #bloorcourt #dufferinstreet #dufferin #ttc #subway


My contribution to yesterday's Look for a Moment photo post was the photo above, taken inside the recently renovated Dufferin subway station. I quite like the look of Dufferin, actually: it looks wonderfully cathedral, and colourful, especially compared to its previous incarnation.

A post last night at Torontoist let me know that the ongoing renovations at Dufferin Station has progressed to the point that some of the new tiles put in place at track level--the ones at the western end of the westbound platform--are visible to the public.

Amazingly, even my mom with her extensive horticultural knowledge couldn't identify this short red-leafed tree. It's Terran, I know, but wouldn't it be cool if it was a Heidelsheimater umbrella tree taken all the way from the Rho Eridani system by Freihafener merchants who managed to sneak it past Orbital Quarantine Control?

I took these pictures walking home a bit past midnight at the beginning of this month of October. It was so much warmer back then, so much more alive.

Thanks, as always, to Mom for the identifications. If there's any mistake, blame it on me, well, taking pictures at night. I mean, even with a flash . . .

St. Francis of Assisi, famed patron of the birds among other animals, was here leaning somewhat in a front yard on Dufferin Street. He still looked happy, regardless.
