I have fond memories of summer nights, waiting for the last ferry back to the mainland from Toronto Island. Millions of people living there, but I had it all to myself for a while. #photography #toronto #nighttimephotos #cityliving #torontoisland #blackandwhite

Toronto skyline with pink sky after sunset from Toronto island.
One last pink sky of the long weekend. It has been a great October in #Toronto. So much boat work has been done this weekend but very very thankful for this gem 🩷🩵 & @faudio.bsky.social #torontoisland #bluesky #pinksky

Throwback Thursday : A ferry arrives at Toronto Island in sunset light. The skyline is much bigger now, but cities are a constant metamorphosis. #photography #toronto #ferries #ferry #sunsetlight #citylife #lakeontario #torontoisland #canada

Happy Friday #bluesky 💙
It's a beautiful clouds day hovering over Toronto #torontoisland
Make yourself free from self at one stroke!
Like a sword be without trace of soft iron;
Like a steel mirror, scour off all rust with contrition.

I saw it written and I saw it say
Pink moon is on its way
And none of you stand so tall
Pink moon gonna get you all
It's a pink moon
Pink, pink, pink, pink

Toronto memories : I would often be the last person on the ferry back to mainland Toronto. One summer night, I missed the ride by a couple of minutes. It wasn't unpleasant to sleep beneath a big old tree on Toronto Island. #photography #toronto #ferries #torontoisland #transportation #citylife

Toronto skyline as seen from Ward’s Island. A rocky and vegetation strewn beach in the foreground gives way to the calm, blue lake. On the horizon sits the city skyline with its ever growing downtown architecture. Above is a light blue sky with a gradient pink, and clouds.

An amateur painting depicting the skyline of Toronto circa 1900. It features various natural elements such as trees and clouds, set against a scenic landscape that includes Toronto Bay in Lake Ontario. The artwork captures the beauty of nature and urban life intertwined, creating an inviting outdoor scene.

Toronto Island doc shot; we humans are funny, creating animal effigies without realizing the potential emotional trauma we could cause to actual Swans. Perhaps I am joking. Yes, I can confirm that. #photography #docshot #swan #swans #imitations #toronto #torontoisland
Spot the Spotted Owl. A little more wrought-iron whimsy from Toronto Island last week! #writingretreat #writer #torontoisland
#photography of one of the many gardens on #TorontoIsland. And yes again, the #CNTower in the background. 😆

I seem to have an "on the water" theme going here this morning. Here's a classic Toronto Island shot, with people awaiting the ferry and a ferry full of people awaiting the island. It's a jewel of the city and a must-visit if you haven't yet. #photography #toronto #torontoisland #canada #ferries
There’s something about taking the boat back from Toronto Island… that moment when the skyline comes into view, the air feels fresh, and everything slows down.
I wanted to capture that feeling.
Where would you hang this?
