People On The Street - Theme Day
The theme for March for the City Daily Photos is "people on the street" and last weekend I caught this pic of many people on the street in the Yorkville neighbourhood. Cumberland Ave was closed for Icefest and had food kiosks set up along it while the park on this side of the street had displays of the ice sculptures that had been done over Saturday and Sunday. It seemed that everyone had a camera, smart phone or i-pad and they were all in use. I'm not sure if the stores along the street did any business but the crowds were certainly out there.
Taking part in the theme day. Click here to see more "people on the street" from around the world.
Some intriguing and inviting-looking shops, though.
ReplyDeleteThere are lots of people out there admiring the ice sculptures.
ReplyDeleteGood reason to go out walking in the cold, ice sculpture. We have the perfect winter for it. Great photo for the theme.
ReplyDeletea good one!
ReplyDeleteHow fun!
ReplyDeleteThey produce some very intricate sculptures. No wonder people like looking at them.
ReplyDeleteA really fine theme day photo, Pat. Funny to see all the cameras and phones! Life has sure changed over the past 30-40 years. Those ice sculptures blow my mind. Fantastic.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind words. Hope your weekend is going well!
They wouldn't last long down here.

A very busy street!
ReplyDeleteToronto has so many freebie events like this. The prices in the Yorkville shops are too high for a 9 0 fiver like me.
ReplyDeleteCelebrating (the departure of?) winter. Fine shot.
ReplyDeleteIt also seemed that it was a very cold day!
ReplyDeleteI love dolphins! ;-)
An excellent shot. This is the sort of thing that really does draw out the crowds, and rightfully so.
ReplyDeleteToronto seems to be a hopping place these days. I would have visited here if I were up there.
ReplyDeleteLooks well attended.
ReplyDeleteDolphins are people, too! Good to see them mingling with the folks on the street
ReplyDeleteLots to see in this photo, great shot!
ReplyDeleteThe sculptures are marvellous and it is wonderful to see people out enjoying them. Looks cold :).
ReplyDeleteWhenever I see the ice sculptures it makes me smile Pat.. 37C and ice sculptures, never going to happen :) I hope the shops and cafes did do a good trade, it would be kind of frustrating to see all those people out there and no one buying hey! Fab shot for the theme day.
ReplyDeleteGreat street scene. It does seem that almost every person has a phone to their ear or a camera/phone out to take pictures with!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great turnout and no wonder!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great day to capture people in the street, RedPat!
ReplyDeleteNice to see those ice sculptures. I've only seen them done for fancy hotel banquets. Looks like a lively street scene.
ReplyDeleteYou’ve made a great Theme Day post. I'm glad you picked this for today. Thanks for the informative text. I cannot imagine seeing an ice sculpture on the street!
ReplyDeleteWow, I would like to see an ice festival one day.
ReplyDeleteA great success, Pat!!!
ReplyDeleteI like this street scene, good choice for this theme!
