Mighty kind of you!

That Covent Garden Market area is unrecognizable, except for the Royal Bank building.
I know Simpsons was in that area for many years, but I had no idea The Bay ever took over that particular Simpsons location. I bet it was very brief as The Bay ended up at White Oaks Mall in the late 80s. |

My bedroom window's inside the moon in your first pic.

Here are a few of my own from today. Unfortunately the weather was lousy, and since a friend was visiting I was sorta more focused on catch-up. But a few more for the gallery nonetheless:

I kinda wanted this to look a little like an Escher drawing. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8054/8...b41f989f_z.jpg 20121027_164645 by Wharn[cliffe], on Flickr |
Nice shots bolognium, the city looks so alive! I don't think I've ever seen Dundas that crowded. Would have loved to go out for this, but unfortunately I had a tax exam the next day. Being the dull person that I am, I elected to study for that instead of enjoying the festivities :rolleyes:
|
great photos, bolognium.

I have such fond memories of London at Christmas. I use to go down to Victoria Park every year for the big countdown of the Christmas Lights and get my free hot chocolate.
|
Victoria Park is something they do right in this city.

Beautiful pictures. I just spent a good amount of time looking at the pictures posted. It's interesting to see pictures posted over time. I saw some at the other forum as well from 2007. I've definitely got to get out and about to take some pictures around this city. I've lived here for four years now, although I did live here in the winter of 2007/2008 briefly, but then I came back permanently in 2009. I actually had a friend working on the Renaissance.
I have a few pictures from the view of my apartment on Commissioners, but I don't have anymore interesting ones. I do have some old ones from my other building on my old phone, but I've been having trouble getting it to work. So once I can, I will upload those two, but it's a view of downtown from the Oxford area. I took these pics for my family to see the view from my new apartment not too long ago: http://i1278.photobucket.com/albums/...ps3d0822aa.jpg http://i1278.photobucket.com/albums/...ps7ead7593.jpg http://i1278.photobucket.com/albums/...psf26ce93c.jpg http://i1278.photobucket.com/albums/...ps898f2053.jpg http://i1278.photobucket.com/albums/...117_143754.jpg http://i1278.photobucket.com/albums/...117_143756.jpg http://i1278.photobucket.com/albums/...117_143750.jpg Not the best pictures because they were taken with my phone, but best I can do for now. |
GF's brother lives in those towers, the one nearest the hospital on the 14th floor. Welcome to the forums as well!

Welcome indeed.
Here's a couple random shots from my Sunday bike ride (bonus squirrel in last pic): http://i.imgur.com/wruRjjv.jpg http://i.imgur.com/vVVx6vb.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Jmim0Jw.jpg http://i.imgur.com/QzflzR9.jpg |
