It's dry right now (9am) despite what the forecast says, so I'm hoping it'll stay dry this afternoon. If it doesn't, then we'll find a bar or somewhere to hide out (and take some indoor shots) until it does :) See you all at Rebas Cafe at 2pm - if you're late, call me (647-388-5356) and we'll let you know where we are so you can catch up.

Rain beginning early in the morning and ending in the afternoon. Wind becoming southwest 30 km/h in the morning then light late in the evening. High plus 4." Let's re-assess the weather tomorrow morning and decide whether to postpone the photo walk; I'm hopeful that "ending in the afternoon" means we'll be OK to get out and shoot. **Check <a href="http://torontophotowalks.ca/2009/12/the-junction-december-13th/" rel="nofollow">the thread on the website</a> for a last minute decision.

Not sure how complete it is and many of the shots are quite old:-) A couple of things you should add to the walk is High Park Ave. from Dundas to at least Glenlake. In particular there is the Heinzman house. I believe that is my most view image. www.flickr.com/photos/grantmac/520043897/ It is on the west side of High Park Ave. If you want a nice shot of the tracks there is also the railway bridge at Dundas ST W and Glenlake. Watch out for a wonderful art deco building on the north side of Dudas just east of Keele. The building on the east side of Keele at Dundas has just been repaired and restored on the outside so it is a great subject as well.</blockquote> I don't think we'll have time to get to the Heinzman house but the Glenlake bridge is on the route.
