Beautiful Urban Moments – Part VIII
On my way to work this morning, I noticed this strange reflection above the doorway of the “Christadelphians” building on Ossington between Dupont and Bloor. Investigating, I discovered that with the sun just coming over the city’s roofs, a metal medallion embedded in the wall of the house across the street was creating this perfect reflection on the opposite building – the moment was so fleeting, it had almost passed by the time I got the camera out. No doubt there will only be a few days a year when the reflection corresponds so wonderfully with an architectural feature. Who are the Christadelphians you ask? How the hell do I know, but it’s worth looking up, if you’re interested…

Thanks for this. I have often seen such plays of light and stopped to enjoy them – sadly without a camera near at hand. I grew up going to this Christadelphian Church. It has been many years since I have been there and so appreciate your picture even more than usual. 🙂
Thanks again.

Hi Jane Jones! I saw your comment on the light photo in front of Ossington, as I came across this site rather by accident. I wanted to say hello! Martha Ghent

Hi Martha Ghent, the girl whose father used to put pebbles in her shoes, and who once sold art supplies to Toller Cranston. What a strange and wonderfully eerie place to hear a welcome voice from the past. You will never see this, but hope life is treating you well. Roland.
