Hi Folks,
Please forgive me for missing out on my creative friends on TL for so long. I just wanted to share this view of the moon rise over the TO skyline on TL.

This is Toronto Downtown from the Humber Bay park.
I like the way there seems to be such contrast between the moonlight that seems to render tranquility to the heart and mind as opposed to the chaotic and hurried life that is going on in in the city at distance (thanks for pointing this out clix_stuff). I also like the way moonlight seems to be shining on the ice on the rocks at bottom of my photo

Here are some Quick Facts about Toronto from wikipedia:
Toronto is Canada's largest city by population. The population of the Toronto Census Metropolitan Area (CMA) is estimated at 5,304,100 in 2005 (Statistics Canada). Residents of Toronto are called Torontonians (in French: Torontois). About one-sixth of all Canadian jobs lie within the city limits. Toronto is one of the world's most multicultural cities.


I wish everybody a very happy weekend and the week to follow
cheers .... Sarju

Beautiful Sarju, is a good idea to put the horizon in upper zone, a very nice effect. Regards!

Good to see you again Sarju as it has been a long time. Very nice night picture of the Toronto skyline in the distance. The moon light is very good and I like this vertical composition. Well done!

This is a very well composed night shot. I love how you have filled it up with so much of moonlight. Shows so much of peace as opposed to hustle bustle of the city faraway! Lovely image. Well done . TFS

Beautiful photo, the POV is perfect, it give a great reflection of the moon which you don not see on the photo. The sky line is giving it an urban jungle feeling.
Regards,
Niek

Hi Sarju,
Beautiful photo,Congratulations!!!!!

Hi Sarju! Nice composition with the skyscrapers wayup in the corner. Very nice control of the light; you got some nice details in the sky. I might have cropped the bottom part that shows the rocks, just to keep the lake and reflection. Just an idea. Very nice shot!

Hi Sarju,
This is one of the nicest skyline shots of Toronto I have seen. Calmness of the lake with a bustling city in the horizon. Great composition.

This idea of this shot is extremely good! But you should try it next time with an appertume of F8,F11 and F22, you shall see that the DOF will greatly improve! The city should be as clear as the front...


But very nice shot, I really like the effect of the moon on the water! TFS

Hi Sarju,
Very beautiful night shot of Toronto with this superb reflection of the moon. Well done.

Que voilà une très belle prise de vue Sarju! Cette photo me donne la même impression de calme dont tu parles dans ta note. La lumière sur l'eau et sur les rochers d'avant plan fait presque tout l'intéret de cette image... Encore bravo...
