Toronto Skyline at Sunset

Visiting Toronto recently I finished up my work around midday on the Thursday and, after swapping hotels from the corporate one to something a little nicer, headed straight outside to get some photos. I had recommendations from a few different people on where to go and take images, and was pretty happy to wander around the streets waiting for something to catch my eye. I hadn’t put much pre-thought into heading out to the islands just south of the city, until during the week when a colleague mentioned he wanted to go, but wasn’t able to get to the island he wanted due to the ferry winter schedule. For some reason that sparked something in my mind of wanting to get there.
I had been wandered around the Distillery District, one of the places that Edith suggested I should check out, and was walking down to the harbour to check out the boat situation when the rain started. Arriving at the boats a little damp I found that one of the ferry services was still running over to Ward’s island so I figured heading over to there would be a start, and then I could go from there.
After waiting an age I jumped on the ferry and took the pleasant journey across to Ward’s. Getting off the boat I saw a few sights I wanted to shoot, namely a boat on a sandy beach with Toronto in the background. A couple of other photographers had come across on the boat also so, hoping they were local and would know the lay of the land, I had a quick chat to find out the best spots they could tell me about.
