Dandelions in sunlight. Yes, they’re weeds but they’re so gorgeous when the sun shines down on them. There were so many and their tops were illuminated so nicely and looked like tiny little halos.
The Toronto skyline during late spring and the skyline during twilight. The sunset wasn’t as intense as I was hoping but I’m really happy with the skyline shot. I looked over and saw all the pretty white flowers and I knew I had to snap a photo. It was such a spring scene and it made me so happy seeing it in person. We came back around a week later and the hill was completely grassy, no white flowers. Just goes to show how anything in spring disappears so quick if you aren’t fast enough.
I am not quite sure what flowers these are but if I see pretty flowers, I take a photo. The cloudy sky provides a nice contrast against the dark purple blossoms.
An intense and vibrant sunset from the beginning of May. The clouds turned yellow and then orange and I was able to capture some stunning shots of the Toronto skyline and the surrounding areas.
These photos are the reason why I always bring my camera with me whenever I go to the cemetery. Surrounded by nature, you never know what you’re going to see. For example, on this day, I was not expecting to step out of the car and see pink where I wasn’t anticipating it. I had no clue that this tree was a cherry blossom tree so you can imagine my shock and excitement upon seeing it. The cherry blossoms in other places in Toronto (including the ones I photographed at this location) I had visited previously already withered a while back. Cherry blossoms only last around a week so be sure to act quickly if you want to enjoy them and take photos.
These are truly my last cherry blossom photos of 2021 and I miss them already. I can’t wait to be blessed by the pink flowers again next year!
A moody spring day in Toronto, Canada. We headed down to the beach for a little bit for some fresh air. Soon after, we headed to Polson Pier so I could take some skyline shots with the storm clouds in the background. As we were driving there, the clouds looked particularly angry with lots of movement. By the time I got there and was ready to shoot, they had mellowed down a bit, which was a little disappointing. Since summer is just starting, I’m hoping to catch some angry storm clouds soon!
A soft pink and purple sunset. As much as I love the vibrant and intense sunsets, there’s something calming about the ones with gentle skies and fluffy clouds.
Giant fluffy clouds during spring followed by a vivid orange sunset. After that, storm clouds rolled in and you could clearly see rainfall in the distance. It took a while for the rain to finally reach us in the city but it was lovely seeing it roll in!
