Wakey Wakey, Toronto!

At least it didn't rain this morning... I have decided that the view of the sun rising from McCormick Arena is uninspiring... But I kind of liked the blues in the sky, and the hint of CN tower in the back...

Thank you for the views, comments and favs for the Haunting... I am trying to use my iphone to catch up on comments, but it's kind of slow going, I'm afraid...

I like this one. Pretty early morning scene. I love the blues and the orange glowing tower, too!

[Simon]

[John]

Wonderful light

[Humphrey Hippo]

Love the sky in this, with the daylight just starting to show through.

[Lisa Pouncy]

I love the deep blue of the sky with the faint hint of the sun coming up xx

[Dave Schofield]

[scooter]

Great shot!

@chewyteeth some months ago someone here started a thread with a link to some wingdings and instructions on how to make them as part of your name... i'm afraid i do not recall the link or the instructions or who started the thread... strangely (to me) most people were adding hearts and song notes to their name ;p

@northy
skull and crossbones much underused icon since the Nazis ruined it. you did good.

[Peach/CreamPhoto]

Nice shot... I can feel the cool morning air just looking at it!

[Mike Gifford]

@northy Okay, I've gone through your albums over the last couple of months and I didn't see any smoke shots. I had a lot of fun doing this with on one of the push challenges, and your kids can help as well since I found it turned into a mental game when reviewing the shots.

Here are two links from Gavin Hoey - first one is how to do it, the second one is editing the results: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2d281_HoEQ&feature=iv&annotation_id=annotation_876797 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8_jUAvuilE&feature=iv&annotation_id=annotation_132174

Here are some of mine as examples: http://365project.org/mikegifford/365-almost/2012-10-04 http://365project.org/mikegifford/365-almost/2012-10-03 http://365project.org/mikegifford/365/2012-10-04

Let me know if this works for you. If not, I'll suggest something else. Happy clicking!

[☠northy]

@mikegifford uh oh! definitely something i've never ventured into... but yeah... this works... something i can do at home after the kids go to bed... tx!!!!!

[Allison]

Beautiful! Love the colours! :-)

[Frida]

Nice shot and the hint of the light coming through despite the star is really nice!

[ladyjane]

I really love the colour of the sky, and the single star - or is that Venus?

[Amaya Williams]

I like the glint of sun shining through.

[Edie]

Gorgeous.

[Tanya]

lovely light and stillness

I love this photo because it captures that really special, fleeting, time of day when the sun is coming up, but the stars are still out. It's that brief time of transition that's so great. I think it's the same reason that I like pictures of the fall leaves - love the in-between times.
