Mostly bare trees in a city park, and a bus shelter, seen from across the street in late afternoon light
Statues and a vase of branches with coloured maple leaves in a shop window. There is a sticker on the window that reads "shop local"
A sad looking plush yellow duck and an angry looking plastic Pokemon type thing (not sure which one, I was a 70s/80s kid) looking out a shop window.
A MFT mirrorless camera and a festive winter coffee cup on a cafe table looking out the window on a snowy day
More stuff from past walks.

An urban river in autumn with trees growing along the banks and apartment buildings and a bridge in the distance
A round convex mirror surrounded by foliage. Reflected in it are a garage, more leaves, and part of the photographer and his bicycle.
Sign in a window saying "Come In WE ARE AWESOME". There is some condensation on the inside of the window and it is reflecting some of the street.
A plastic skeleton head, arms and shoulders with its hands on its head and red eyes, with a creepy doll head behind it, on a table outside with other Halloween decorations visible on the wall behind it.
Some pictures from various walks both recent and not so recent. #photography #streetphotography #Toronto #Torontostreetphotography #seenwhilewalking

2 round flat red things about the size of a bar stool seat (which is what I think they actually are) leaning against a utility pole on the sidewalk. The visible one has the Coca- Cola logo and the words "drink Coke" on it.
Ladybird beetles clustered on a piece of driftwood on the beach
A slightly rusty muffler from a car on the edge of a sidewalk, with fallen leaves, grass and some plants around it.
A dead fish on the beach. It's fairly large and looks to be some kind of salmonid.

Some potted flowers outside a shop with a hand lettered sign reading "special plant $2.99 pot"

A left hand with the index finger outstretched touching tall grass. The hand is attached to a left arm wearing an analog watch with a black NATO strap and a blue fleece jacket.
Touched grass today. It was ok I guess, I wouldn't not do it again, but I don't get what all the fuss is about. #touchedgrass #photography #seenwhilewalking
🎶Isn't this a lovely day to be caught in the rain?🎶 #video #Toronto #rain #night #seenwhilewalking
A close up of a wooden utility pole covered with layers of rusty staples from years of people putting up posters and notices. There are also a few shiny new staples scattered among the rusty ones.

A broken mirror on the sidewalk with a vague reflection of the photographer and his bicycle
A sandy beach with a red lifeguard tower, with a sky of broken cloud. The tower is surrounded by red and yellow triangular shapes made of wood, as part of the "Winter Stations" art installation at Woodbine Beach in Toronto.
A turquose painted storefront with a neon sign saying "CASK MUSIC" in the window. It's a sunny day but it must have snowed recently because there are icicles hanging from the roof and snowbanks all around.
A fish shaped red plastic beach toy sitting on top of a tree stump with green grass around it
Some more things I saw on walks (and a streetcar ride) earlier this year but never got around to posting. #photography #torontophotography #streetphotography #seenwhilewalking #toronto #torontostreetphotography
An alley off Greenwood Ave. in Toronto, with old brick industrial buildings on the right hand side illuminated by low winter afternoon sun, with moody shadows. There are a bunch of wheelie bins lined up neatly against the closest building. If it looks familiar, this was an Orphan Black filming location.
An assortment of superhero toys, Pride flags and random junk in a shop window with the street reflected in the glass
Handlebars of a bike on a pedestrian bridge on a rainy spring day, with a basket on the bike and a bag in the basket and a helmet on top of the bag. In the middle ground there is a pictogram sign instructing people to walk their bike across the bridge, and also some construction pylons, because the bridge is being renovated.
A booklet titled "The Successful Fish Hobbyist", with a picture of two angel fish on the cover, sitting on a low ledge inside a modern building. Outside the window you can see part of the front wheel of an electric bicycle.

A clear plastic cup with several dead fish inside standing head down with their tails sticking up just a bit above the rim. The cup is sitting on a ledge by the sidewalk on a residential street.

Lineup at an ice cream truck beside Withrow Park on the first hot day of the year. The grass is lush and green but the trees are still bare.
Some spilled candies strewn about on the sidewalk.
An election sign for the local liberal candidate in the 2025 Canadian federal election, beside a hand lettered sign listing historic milestones in Canadian democracy.
Assorted stuffed toys in the window of a store in Danforth Avenue near Broadview. The one that caught my eye was the big green frog wearing headphones. 🐸

A shop window full of artistic pottery with a sign in a stand-up frame in the middle of the display reading "it's the other pot shop"
A shop window with a stuffed toy bird and other bric-a-brac. At the top is part of a sign reading "welcome" and at the bottom is a sticker in the window reading "premises monitored by video surveillance". The bird isn't ornithologically correct and it's coloured white with pastel purple, blue and pink bits, but it might be a penguin. It was a cold day so I was thinking of penguins when I saw it.
A view down an alley of a sunlit brick house tucked away in back of an apartment building, with more apartment buildings in the distance, and a tree with bare branches to the left
The window of "Dave's Hot Chicken" with a sign that looks like the face of a rubber chicken
Some things I saw on my walk on Thursday. Yes, "the other pot shop" is next door to a cannabis store. #photography

A shop window lit by low afternoon winter sun. Inside is an old suitcase, on top of which is what looks at first glance like a 1960s vintage portable radio in a case with a handle, but it's actually a portable hair dryer of the old fashioned sort with the hose and cap, and a plant growing from a white flower pot that looks like a head in a classical sculptural style. In the lower right is the truncated text "looking fo" from a sign painted on the glass.
A sign on the sidewalk outside a shop with the outside walls painted bright pink. The sign reads "Cute Shop" with hearts and flowers surrounding the text and an arrow pointing into the store.
A photograph of the shadow of somebody walking a bicycle across a city street, with the crosswalk lines and a streetcar track visible on the pavement. In the background is a red brick corner store, a bus shelter (or rather a streetcar shelter), a red traffic light, and a white truck stopped at the light.
A utility box (the photographer believes it's a telephone junction box but isn't certain) in an old residential neigbourhood. The box is painted with an image of a cow and chicked apparently walking around on city streets. Behind it is a chain link fence around a schoolyard, and beyond that is a cross street lined with 3 story red brick Victorian houses with gingerbread gables. Everything is illuminated from a low angle by the setting winter sun.
Some things I saw on my walk on Friday. I saw more things than that but it seems I can only post 4 at a time. #photography #streetphotography #toronto #torontostreetphotography #thingsIsawonmywalk #seenwhilewalking
A discarded wooden wardrobe sitting on the sidewalk on garbage day.
Can you guard this armoire for me until I come back with a truck? #thingsiseeonmywalks #seenwhilewalking #datedSeinfeldreferences
A nice view of the Toronto skyline from Riverdale park, with buildings and clouds lit up by the setting sun, and the silhouette of a leafless tree against the sky in the middle ground.
An inflatable lawn ornament of some kind of animal with a Christmas wish list
A globe of the planet Earth abandoned on the sidewalk in the Riverdale neighborhood of Toronto.
An inflatable unicorn lawn decoration with a Christmas hat

A view of Spadina Avenue in Toronto with racks of discount clothing in front of a discount clothing store in the foreground, people walking past in the middle ground, and a streetcar, other buildings and a portion of the CN Tower in the background. There's also a cool bag with Jack Skellington's face on it hanging from the shop's awning.
An abandoned shoe in an alley beside a chain link fence and a yellow bollard with a blue stripe, with light snow on the ground
A close up of a heart inside a sunburst, drawn on top of a blue stripe painted around the pole for a traffic sign, with out of focus street scene in the background
A graffito of Mr. T's head with the text "he loves you" beside it
Some things I saw on my walk on this day in 2006 (which was 3 weeks after I got my first DSLR). #photography #thingsIseeonmywalks #seenwhilewalking
