Toronto had very little snow last winter and I was excited about the potential of taking photos of a snow-covered
city…however, in true Toronto fashion the “storm” was built up in the local media and it wasn’t really a storm at all.
Luckily for me I got up before the sun to capture a few photos of the when the weather was stormish.
Queen and Spadina at 6am.
Streetcars and snow plows seemed to be the only vehicles on the road.
Footprints mark a trail cutting through Yonge and Dundas Square.
I’m beginning to realize my affection toward photos of streetcars.
Just a bad idea. Biking in the snow never works out well.
12 hours after the storm began and there is all of 10cm…quite a “storm”…
At least it looks nice.
The following day I took some time to walk around the city in search of anything snow storm related. What I found was beautiful blue skies with a bit of snow and icicles.
Wonderful snow scenes. The one first picture is magnificent and the one with the red streetcar is iconic. Would a travel agency use it to draw people into the city during the winter!?

Makes a person wish for another snow storm – sort of. Lovely light in a storm, hmmm. What a good looking site.
Thanks Kilby. And please don’t wish for more snow!
