Oh. Hehe, yeah, sounds perfect. There are, you know, challenges, Emm, but now that I've had a good chance to sample urban / suburban / rural living for good periods of time, living in the city is so far the best; much less survivalist than the sticks, much less suicidal than the burbs.

“a well laid-out 200-year-old European city (old buildings, cathedrals, etc.) melded with a bunch of really cool modern stuff”? It sounds perfect!!!

I love Christmas since my chilhood very much. But today’s Christmas presentation is too business like, to cold, to impersonal, it is just amazig performance of lights and the basic magic of Christms is somehow mising. Especialy those ultra modern threes,yes they look nice but they can be used all year round to decorate window of any kind of more sofisticated store. But Mery Christmas to all of you.

Toronto is fairly modern, Emm, but there’s also a good chunk of history mixed into it. Kinda like a well laid-out 200-year-old European city (old buildings, cathedrals, etc.) melded with a bunch of really cool modern stuff. Tres chic.

They sure did, Stanya! But I suspect that lizard creatures wouldn’t be interested in Christmas, that’s the role of the revolution.

Haha! Well, Random Blogger, wide-angle lenses tend to make anything look interesting. They’re the deep-frying of the photography world in the sense that deep-frying makes anything tastes good. As always, the blame lies entirely with my photo aparatus

Of I couldn’t agree with you more there, Grace. Ain’t much left about it that’s pretty. But the stuff above is still free and until they start pushing us into stores with cattle prods (next year maybe?), we can still exercise some restraint. And just let everyone know not to expect anything outrageous from you this year (or anything at all?). Manage their expectations

Yay! Thanks, Mom! That’s the best comment of the season … I’ve inspired someone to risk theirs and their child’s life in downtown traffic. *sniff* This is what it’s all about.

Kato, I do this so you don’t have to. Otherwise I’d be out of a job! Also justifies the occasional camera upgrade
