Here are three recent images that capture the unique cityscape of Toronto. An M8 Birthday Book would be a great 'time capsule' in which to place them and if selected for the book, I will send full files.

Francisco, I like the way the bricks lend a pattern to the suit jacket.

What great shots. Nice going. Love the janitor -- it reminds of the guy stepping off stairs that go nowhere.

[wparsonsgisnet]

The painting I was thinking of is called "N\ude Descending a Staircase" by DuChamps, I believe.

Geat pic! Another candidate for the book cover.

I don't mean to choose the cover.
1. We may all be able to have our own covers -- we'll see.
2. If not, I'll suggest that we all submit choices and see what the favorites are, or
3. I'll make up a list and float it by everyone.

We are at 23 days, and counting.

Regards to all,

[ttriolo]

Thanks for the compliment Bill. Interesting that you consider the janitor pic good enough for a cover candidate. I just finished a Blurb book on my own of our recent trip to Germany and Poland. The geranium shot was my cover (good dead space for title) and the janitor shot made for an interesting back cover.

BTW... If you need any advice on doing a Blurb book, I might be able to help.

Thanks, I'll be in touch over the weekend with a set of expectations and questions.

Bill,
Thanks I agree the detail is amazing & adds to the "feel" of the photo. I will add the details as necessary for each photo, but the top 2 are the 75 lux & the bottom,(Lennon) is the new Elmarit 28
PS
thanks so much for the T-shirt. don't know if you received my personal note regarding that!

Francisco, I did get your kind note. Thanks for that.

[wparsonsgisnet]

Christian, it's a great perspective photo.

It appears that you have dust on your sensor; note the white spots in the sky. You probably need to clean the sensor and will find lots for threads here on that subject.

For the book, you'll need to spot the photo. If you would like help, I'll be glad to assist.

One of my first may 2007 - Daughter in the bath

Great idea this book thing - some great photos

[flossiezoo]

Wow - terrific shot of your daughter. I love the colour and the movement created by the dripping water.

Bill - if it's OK I'd like to swap one of my three. Can I delete the wild horse and swap for a shot I've been working on recently:

Windsor Great Park at Dawn - 15mm CV.

thanks v much, richard
