I was born and raised in Toronto, and have lived here all my life. Toronto being my hometown, I always thought I knew this city really well. This past week, I rose my awareness when I stroll around this city and realized that I've missed a lot of fine details about this city.
nature in an urban city Biking on the Woodbine beach trail, I captured a different perspective in viewing my surroundings today . I watched the blue sky slowly blend into rosy pink blotches of in the horizon as the sun set. I thought it was a beautiful view and decided to snap a photo of the view to capture it's beauty. I began angling myself left and right, trying to play with the lighting and open space. I loved seeing the glimpse of pink in the sky. After snapping several shots, I reviewed my photos and thought, "If only these trees weren't in the way, I'd have a perfect snapshot of the magnificent pink sky".
spotted the patterns Afterwards, I came home and uploaded this photo on to my computer. I looked more closely into the photo and reflected that the trees created abstract lines. They may have blocked the view of what I originally wanted to capture a picture of, however, the photos I resulted in taking gave me another outlook.
abstract lines It was then I noticed the branches of the tree grew so abstractly. Each tree with branches springing in different angles here and there, so naturally. Nature really is a work of art.
Toronto has always been recognized as an urban setting, in which many people recognized as the second "new york". The busy streets, the streets lights that outline and brighten our whole city. But within this big city, in my very own neighbourhood in which I grew up in, patterns of all kinds occur at all scales. Toronto's urban setting are full of patterns.
Take a look at this photo I took from the view of Panorama and reflect for yourself!
