Next day after the storm

Nova survived!

Streets look so messy.

But sun is shining and all is well!

The paths really make sense now.

Idyllic.

Children sure have fun.

People handling the snowstorm

Photos of people managing the snowstorm on Friday afternoon in Toronto, in one of the craziest snowstorms it has ever faced.

Drama on the streets

More of some views in the very snowy downtown of Toronto, well, these have been taken during my walk back home.

Bloor Street vol. 2

Here! Finally reached to my destination, and I would say that it even looks worse than before, traffic is still quiet. It took me 40 minutes longer to make it, so I was basically walking for two hours, but of course I was taking photos, too :)

Bloor Street vol. 1

Some details I came across, while walking on Bloor street.

Traffic

Of course the traffic was really slow, because not many people decided to even get in their cars. I loved to see the brave cyclist on the first two photos, as I love his dedication. The second photo is my favorite from the series.

The Bloor Bridge

This is a long bridge, which is not taken care of during the heavy snowfall, as you can see very well on the first photo. But the views it was offering, when I was trying to find my way though all that - were breath-taking.

Estonian House

Passed the Estonian House on my way - looking so beautiful!

The greatest snow-storm

Next many-many posts will be about this snowstorm, which is the greatest I have ever seen. I didn't think when I woke up and got ready going to work that it was such a crazy weather and also once in a lifetime urban storm.

For starters just some views from the front door.

Chinatown

This is how January looks like in Chinatown!

Christmas decorations

Did some long shutter speed photos while using small aperture. Look, how the Christmas lights are coming alive!

Finally outside!

Snow stopped and all looks like winter wonderland now, so I am heading out to take photos. I  leave you with this beautiful shot until the next week.

Winder wonderland

An old, grey picturesque barn in the middle of the snowy fields....winter in Canada.

Hospital

I love the lights, the clouds and the darkness. Fall at its norm.

Toronto is never ready

Toronto seems never to be ready, as you can tell by the amount of all these cranes in downtown area!

Edge Walk at CN Tower

While I was up there, nice and warm, then some people were doing something absolutely crazy - they were walking on the edge!!! If you are one who likes that kind of stuff, maybe next time when in the city, check THIS out.

Spooky?

Yaiks!!! In CN Tower you can stand on a glass which will show you the way down...HELP! Pretty crazy!

Toronto-Dominion Centre

From the top of CN Tower you can have a great view to the whole city. Very close to CN Tower is a Toronto-Domion Centre, which consists of three black buildings. The Toronto-Dominion Centre, or T-D Centre, is a cluster of buildings in downtown Toronto, Ontario, owned by Cadillac Fairview, and consisting of six towers and a pavilion covered in bronze-tinted glass and black painted steel. It serves as the global headquarters of the Toronto-Dominion Bank, as well as providing office and retail space for many other businesses. Some 21,000 people work in the complex, making it the largest in Canada.

The project was the inspiration of Allen Lambert, former President and Chairman of the Board of the Toronto-Dominion Bank, with Phyllis Lambert, recommending Ludwig Mies van der Rohe as design consultant to the architects, John B. Parkin and Associates and Bregman + Hamann, and the Fairview Corporation as the developer. The towers were completed between 1967 and 1991, with one additional building built outside the campus and purchased in 1998. Part of the complex, described by Philip Johnson as "the largest Mies in the world",[6] was designated under the Ontario Heritage Act in 2003, and received an Ontario Heritage Trust plaque in 2005.

Birds-eye view

Not much to add, photos speak to itself!

CN Tower and brother

My brother was visiting from Estonia and I gave him a grand tour to CN Tower. They are both really tall!
