Toronto

Toronto, the capital of the province of Ontario, is a major Canadian city along Lake Ontario’s northwestern shore.

It’s a dynamic metropolis with a core of soaring skyscrapers, all dwarfed by the iconic, free-standing CN Tower. Toronto also has many green spaces, from the orderly oval of Queen’s Park to 400-acre High Park and its trails, sports facilities and zoo.

Dreamliner to Toronto on BA

British Airways announces the arrival of the new Boeing 787 Dreamliner with routes to Toronto and Newark from September 2013.

Toronto Winter 2015

While visiting family in Toronto over the Christmas period of December 2015, I had a play with my camera and some time-lapse features.

The Mendonca Family

The Mendonca Family day happens every return to Toronto, approximately every two years, united to see me and to see each other. Having edited this, it clearly demonstrated the wild and crazy nature of the Mendonca Family. It starts calm, but as each member arrives, it gets louder and crazier. I can’t complain, its family, […]

Blimey Summers, Scorching Canuks

As a fellow Canadian, I completely understand the hardships of weather patterns in Toronto Canada.

In Toronto the swings of seasons are clear, hot summers, wet autumns, freezing winters and warm springs. Though ask any Canadian and […]
