Alexiuss: Is this perhaps Chicago? I ask because the weather was *precisely* like this last week with lake-effect fog, and this looks awfully familiar... and it's a fabulous photo. Always love your work.

I love that mysty... foggy effect in the distance. I've been by that place many times but have never seen it like that. The proverbal hat is off to you!

I really like the low saturation of the buildings and the mistyness in the that surrounds the background and some of the buildings that are close. And that rocket thingy is a nice detail.

thanks! twas probably one of em fast planes though, as a rocketship sighting in Toronto is rather unlikely.

Haha yea probably not likely. But you could just say that it is, just for the sake of the picture.

The jet is framed and centered perfectly amongst the buildings... and the buildings themselves have some amazing lighting in them!

You know, at first I wondered whether you had digitally created this 
Very nice photo, I like the angle and the distant mist
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
it does have a surreal look to it, aye. 
The fog was very low and it was very sunny, and the sky completely clear.
Also, the fog made every light ray magically visible as you can see on the reflection of light on the blue skyscraper.

twas. The sun rays, reflecting off every building, made visible due to the mist were really rather neat.

heh...back again, may i ask where this picture was taken?

Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Toronto is a pretty young city compared to others.
"We kicked the Indians out, cut down all the trees and build a bunch of iron and glass mountains" seems to summarize its history nicely.

Lol. I live about few hrs away from TO. And I usually travel alot to different countries around the world. And have been in TO many times, but I've never seen that area...guess i'll have to find it later.
Thx,
Yoshi
P.S. like your summary of our history :wink:

Amazing lights and mistiness in this photo. The jet plane (or whatever that is) is also a fun detail. Really like this
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
aye. T' looks like that plane is trying to escape upwards into space.
funny thing, I didn't notice it while taking the photo.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Then that fact makes this photo even cooler. Maybe it was an UFO
