Students Through The Ages

It was hard to shoot this mural which I found in the Weston neighbourhood of Toronto since it is done as a triptych on a stepped wall along the main street. The panels show school children from 3 different eras and are meant to "celebrate the heritage and multi-cultural development of the Weston community".  It was sponsored by various community groups with several different artists involved.
Taking part in Monday Murals. Click here for more murals.

 The November 1 theme for City Daily Photo bloggers is "Heights."

    I think you shot it the right way Pat, it's good to see it all in the same frame to see the changes.

    You managed the triptych very well to produce this image. Very well done.

    I like projects that are part of a community effort. I can see it would be a challenge to get all three into one photo...but you DID it!

    It is interesting to see the change from a predominantly white neighbourhood to one of diversity. (in dress and race!)

    I would not have caught the three different time periods had you not mentioned it. I don't want to think what the next panel may look like. Thanks for visiting my mules.
