Goldfish Alley Finished

Continued from my previous Post:

East of Dufferin Street, south of Queen W. W. is a piece of alley marked by a Goldfish on the corner of a parking lot.

 From the end of the alley, walking back to the Goldfish it looks like:

Glory, It wasn’t sleeting!

However it was Thanksgiving”  weekend, and the “Rocket” ran over a piece of wood with a very large nasty nail in it. Sherrie’s dad, and Poopsie rescued us.

The shutters are all painted. Unfortunately, the purlple-ish reefer smoking wolf was the only one down when we we there.

It’s a fun bit!

G.R.G. The Sequel

Here’s the rest of what I found in Loblaws’ parking lot!

I know it’s dizzying, but I found myself angling my camera for the sake of the reflection.

OMG #10

The pic above is so fabulous that I had to start my Post with it, even though it’s near the end of the Graffiti. So let me back up, and start at the beginning.

I came out of the LLBO. I spotted the Graf and cars at the far end of the lot, and began shaking.

OMG #3

The ginormous lot is on the east side of Dundas West between Bloor and Roncesvalles.

OMG #4

I was thrilled to find a red car in reflection position.

OMG #5

It looks so different reflected in red, quite stunning in its own right.

OMG #6

The cars were all clean and shiny!

OMG #7

The graffiti colours are intense, perfect for reflections.

OMG #8

I know, it’s hard to beat the drama of a shiny black vehicle.

OMG #9

I tried to get a shot of the Graffiti art from the other side, but I was sqinched into a corner with limited positioning.

OMG #11

Funny how companies, not people paint these things sometimes!

OMG #12
