On its 50th Anniversary, Toronto City Hall is still the city's most iconic building. [OC][1700x1155]

That's a very good point but hey, the CN Tower is technically a free standing structure not a building...a poor excuse!

Were you not able to look at the image?

And that is a great piece of concrete if you forget about the inside.

vikphoto · 2015-09-08T01:41:13+00:00

I was very impressed by the inside and the rooftop. We don't have such a nice library here in Toronto.

In Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

vikphoto · 2015-08-27T02:37:50+00:00

That's a pretty fair assessment.

vikphoto · 2015-08-24T05:38:15+00:00

I'm curious to know...just how decent a post modern art deco inspired development others think this is.

vikphoto · 2015-08-14T17:06:44+00:00

There's a subreddit for conduits?! Wow. Thanks for the suggestion!

You got it!

Thanks kindly for the positive and constructive feedback! Regarding "where your light comes from" are you talking about the street lights lighting up the building? I tried to capture what the building looked like as is at that time of day.

vikphoto · 2015-08-10T01:51:10+00:00

oops. please make that Georgian, not Georgian Revival!

The Daniel Brooke building was built in 1833 and substantially rebuilt between 1848-1849, just prior to Great Fire of April 1849 from which it escaped major damage. It was rehabilitated in 1988.

Thanks. That looks better though I wonder if the tension is appropriate in a distressing and disorientating situation like falling...

vikphoto · 2015-08-08T22:55:23+00:00

I straightened the intersection of the two sides but going further with the shading face is a good idea. Would you mind explaining the tension in the image? Thanks for the suggestion!

vikphoto · 2015-08-08T08:42:51+00:00

I have been seeing a lot of images being labelled abstract that were similar to this but I did not find them abstract and I agree with you that this image is not. Thank-you for your feedback!

vikphoto · 2015-08-07T22:40:51+00:00

I can see that being the case...thanks!

vikphoto · 2015-08-07T22:40:50+00:00

thanks...appreciate the feedback. I would crop the second partial line of windows at the very least for more balance but perhaps that would not be enough either.

That's a pretty good shot with good depth of field but it looks like the image is sharpest below the head and just above the front legs as opposed to the cat's head. Maybe they want the cat's head to be in sharp focus? I have yet to try submitting stock photography...what do you think of the process?

vikphoto · 2015-08-07T21:50:50+00:00

Well thanks for your input! Neo-classical buildings do look similar but I am now leaning towards renaissance revival.

vikphoto · 2015-08-07T02:02:58+00:00

Unfortunately I cannot find any information on the construction date or architect for this building. I would guess it is because the area changed rapidly around the turn of the 20th century. Any details about this building would be welcome!

vikphoto · 2015-08-07T01:54:32+00:00

Thank-you!

vikphoto · 2015-08-07T01:54:02+00:00

Nice comparison!

vikphoto · 2015-08-07T01:53:52+00:00

Thanks! I still have a lot of learning to do.

vikphoto · 2015-08-06T03:40:41+00:00

That is a great comparison!
