Toronto is a city of many moods. This bridge on Lawrence Ave E. near Orton Park Rd. is just one of many. Here, the night fog, lends the bridge an air of mystery.
Without the human figure, this photograph would be "empty." I owe much to the generosity and good humour of Lisa M. Laliberte who stood in a walking position while I composed it.
I took this shot as one of a series of seven shots taken at the same time from the same location. Wanting to capture the fog, I varied my exposures from +3 f:stops to -3 f:stops with the recommended exposure in the middle. All seven shots are interesting,- leaving me with a difficult choice as to which I like best. This photo was one f:stop over exposed. I used my Pentax Super Programmable Camera in its metered manual mode, mounted on a tripod, with my Kiron 28mm - 210mm zoom telephoto lens. The exposure was 1/60 sec. @f:4.0 on Fujicolor 800 GS film.
