Toronto by Night

Last night was a lovely clear night so I went out for a short walk round the corner, with my camera. The CN Tower was being very odd, I've never seen it like it before. It was lighting up multi-coloured, not just solid blocks but different areas in different colours. Sometimes it was pulsing up and down in a variety of colours, sometimes it was illuminated in red and white, or other specific patterns of colour. On Remembrance Sunday it was illuminated solely in red, which was nice.


They take Remembrance Day quite seriously over here, possibly even more so than in London. On the Friday the banks and government offices were closed half day, and closed all day on Monday. It gets considerable TV coverage and there was a flypast by the Canadian Air Force.

My walk also took me slight further towards the financial centre, and I had to get a night shot of the buildings there. So I did. The city looks even better at night that during the day I think, and I like it (well some of it) during the day. Like everywhere it has its dodgier areas, such as Church and Jarvis after dark.
