I think the blue moon has affected everyone - hope your weekend fixes things.
Great capture and processing.

Very moody. There sure are a lot of overhead wires there....spaghetti junction!!

I was just about to say that the wires are actually pretty cool, bringing more "texture" to the shot. Very effective, urban jungle kinda shot.

Yeah, could have maybe done with fewer cars, but the overhead lines are great.

this looks like an opening scene of a sci-fi movie , couple that with the green-ish tints. very clever processing, kiddo. spadina, was it?

Really cool contrast, I like the overhead lines a lot

Fantastic use of high contrasts - love how it accents almost everything in the shot! : ) fav

Why are there so many overhead wires? Don't think I've ever seen anything like it. But the photo is brilliant and processing really good.

@summerfield
nope - Dundas - between Yonge and Bay (basically just outside where my office is at the Atrium)
@gailmmeek
tx Gail - we have streetcars that run on electricity - they get their power from the overhead wires... :)

Hope you're feeling better now. This image does feel quite congested

Fav. Really like how you've captured those overhead wires.

Hope you are feeling a little more spry than when you posted this. The blown street and other highlights certainly gives a cathartic feeling to the image.
