I had to resort to my iPhone for this… Read More

This week’s submission to Norm 2.0‘s Thursday Doors. These doors can be found in Toronto’s Distillery District. All the doors in this area are painted the same green colour to match the period when the buildings were part of the Gooderham and Worts Distillery.

This week’s submission for For Thursday Doors – June 9, 2016 by Norm 2.0. Made at Toronto’s Distillery District. A flash back to Toronto’s past in this wonderfully preserved historical district.

Walking along Toronto’s Bloor Street West, I came across these wonderful doors. The Munk Institute is part of the University of Toronto campus and I’ve admired them often, as I walked past. Today the light was just right. Much to my surprise, I had never noticed the details in the stonework above the door and topping the pillars. Have a closer look. Interestingly, many of the compositional elements that enhance this image are subconscious when I make the… Read More
