Inside the Scotia Plaza (the reddish building in yesterday's post), you will find this huge mural, "Waterfall", consisting of 69 oil on canvas panels (each 7' x8') rising up over 100 ft in the 15 storey atrium. Created by Canadian artist Derek Besant and installed in 1989, the mural depicts in full scale the largest waterfall in Johnston Canyon Alberta (near Banff). When completed it was the largest indoor mural in Canada!
You don't see one of them every day, do you?

I swear! Everyday, I'm learning something new about T.O. here. Fantastic, since I hate driving down the 401. Why bother when I have your blog? Thanks. Excellent shot. (difficulty: high)
