This is a close-up shot of the right side of yesterday's mural. This section was in deep shade and partially blocked by the trees but I wanted to show the cute little details of birds canoeing and riding a rubber tube as well as having a big cup of something. Perfect for its location in this parkette which has a large kids playground!
I haven't seen any new yellow birds by UB5000 for awhile and then I happened upon this mural in a parkette along Dundas St. I love all the little details he has put into this one. I'll show you a close-up of the part blocked by the trees tomorrow!

This house is in the same neighbourhood near Casa Loma as the house I showed yesterday. Somehow it feels as if it was one large home at one time but has now been divided up into several condos. It is quite luxurious looking with its back garden bordering a deep, treed ravine.
Another house that I have always liked. I think it is that wonderful swoop of the roofline over the garage that is so pleasing, along with the windows. If only we could see the inside.
I am a big fan of carved brickwork and love this woven look that I found on one of the wonderful old homes in the Annex neighbourhood. It is nice to see that the wall has been so well maintained including chicken wire to keep pigeons out of those little arched spaces up on the left top of the pic.
I found this lovely gate in the Annex neighbourhood at the entrance to a lovely back garden. I didn't notice until I put the pic up on my computer that there was a person in a blue robe standing on the back porch watching me. I hope they didn't mind having their gate shot!

The October theme for the City Daily Photo bloggers is "Movement" and I chose this art piece on Bloor St which consists of a 10ft x 6ft screen that has 9 different LED stick figures that walk across it in a random order. It is titled "People Walking 2006" and is by British artist Julian Opie. It's quite fascinating to watch and I managed to catch a reflection of people walking on the street as well as moi down in the corner.
