Street Groove

It’s not easy to see these guys from Roncesvalles Avenue, because they are at the end of a private residences walkway.

Dancers #2

I’m standing on Roncey, looking along the narrow walkway into the residences. You can kind of see they guys down at the end.

Dancers #1

I just shot the guys, and I’m looking up the walkway to Roncesvalles Avenue.

Dancers #3

Wow! by: Kwest

In a narrow “Restricted Access” driveway, on the north side of Queen West and a couple of short city blocks west of Dufferin St. lives this fresh beauty. It’s 2 stories high and 35ish feet deep.

Mascot #1“Kwest” is the artist, and I found a lot of interesting elements within  it. I put them in this Slideshow.

Blue Prince

There’s a rumor going around that if you kiss a frog, he’ll turn into a prince. What if it was a blue frog like this one from a Mural that covers Pet Traders at 1333 Portage Avenue, Winnipeg? Would he turn into a blue prince? What if you accidentally kissed a toad? Don’t worry!

Toads are Frogs
