glass and bricks

amidst the skycrapers in the financial district of toronto, the roy thomson hall is quite distinguishable for its circular architectural design which exhibits a sloping and curvilinear glass exterior. here you see a portion of that glass exterior, and on it is reflected the main building of st. andrews presbyterian church, the tower of which is on the right half of this shot.

had to crop in square format for the half and half challenge. i could've done better but it was windy and cold and i wasn't wearing a warm enough coat as i didn't mean to go out and take photos. i think between my sojourns from last sunday to today, i should have enough to last me until the middle of the month. but we will see.

fitness challenge update: this morning, the result of the first week of the challenge was published on our intranet. guess who only came third overall? the leader had 251,000 plus steps, i had 205,000 plus. should i try to catch that? i feel tired though, i feel like that character in the bible who just kept on walking and walking and walking and walking and...
Wonderful composition!

A great contrast. I must prefer the baroque building.

I love finding contrasting architecture in cities, but haven't managed anything as good as this. Very nice.

This reminds me of places in London City where glass buildings tower over church buildings, often offering interesting juxtapositions and reflections. Very good.

Great contrasts and the warped reflection is very cool. As for the steps- so what's best for you. I must admit though you've got me stumped on the person in the Bible who walked and walked and walked... they all walked and walked and walked...! (with one or two exceptions)

Excellent view of contrast and difference. Like the concept here.
