    Default Rare Shot of TO From North View

    Well had a friend get me into a building today that overlooks Toronto from the North, it is a very rare view and was lucky I was able to get up there. He is going to try getting us up there in the night, if it happens would be so cool. It was a great time, had no restrictions on the roof where we were allowed to go. This photo is over 3 times in width of the larger image link I posted and looks far, far better in the original, to much detail to pack into these smaller photos but here it is. The link takes you to the 1024 width size. I have a ton of photos from this shoot will take some time to pick out the ones I really like.

    PS: Not stitched shot at 12mm and cropped. I have the photos to stitch together the panorama of the entire lake from that view. The same as with the Stelco shot I posted in another thread, just shot and cropped but may try my hand a doing the panoramas of both these photo sets since I do have more photos to actually do a far wider panorama.

    I have far better ones than this, but need to sift through them all and decide which ones to actually work on, this one was just quickly picked because it was at the front of the photos and not because it was one of the better ones. I did a quick chop job to it and uploaded it. I went out for to do another shoot earlier after I met with the Priest of the Church and I received a call from a friend saying if I wanted he could get me to the roof of the place. So I have over 700 photos from today to sort and rate and also need to get the Church photo mounted and framed so not sure when I will get to all these, this one was just to share the great view I had.

    I am going to have it done, the Church offered to pay for it. I know a couple of area places that will do it just going to see who has what frame. I saw what they currently use so I will pick something that matches what they already have. I may start to mount and frame my own but for this one just easier to get it done. I have a full shop of tools so its not that I lack the tools or ability but my shop is in a mess after the winter so until I can get motivated to organize it I am going to hire it out. I prefer to do things myself when possible why I bought a printer that will give me Archival quality Photos. So once the shop is organized I will start doing my own frames both metal and wood. The only thing I won't do is cut my own glass because I don't want to be storing it for any length of time. Sorry about the ramblings, lol.
