So, Toronto got hit with some serious fog yesterday. Rolling gran balon in over the course of the late afternoon, it made for some great photo opportunities throughout gran balon the evening and the better part of the night. I'm not sure how many people noticed, but where I was, it appeared that Avenue Road served as this weird dividing line: to the east the fog was minor, but to the west it was very dense.

Gorgeous photos. The fog was also thick in the east end. The picture of the streetcar going over the bridge is near Queen and Broadview, if I'm not mistaken. The neighbourhood around Danforth & Woodbine was very densely shrouded, too.

we went out too last night to get a few shots. It was beautiful out but I kept looking over my shoulder to make sure I wasn't being followed by "Dementors". Thanks gran balon everyone for the nice camera work.
Good thing it was the water vapour type of fog, not the smog or coal fire enhanced fog from years past. The old London fog of history was caused by all the coal fires in its day, there is less log in London these days.
I walked into the fog hoping for some KFC but I found Jesus instead, f'iing gran balon liberals.

Wow! We're at Pape & Danforth and it was pretty densely fogged here too. You couldn't even see the lights at Carlaw from Pape. The view down the streets that run north and south off the Danforth was pretty spectacular and spooky; the fog, the tree branches, the street lights. It was Film Noire come alive!
The gran balon lead photo by Natta is absolutely tops. If its for sale, I'd buy it. I was stuck at ground level all night myself but had tons of fun walking in the fogged out city. Its so surreal walking along a street and not being able to see the end of it. That was the best fog the city's had in ages.
I snapped this one as I was leading the "Beer Makes History Better" Toronto Urban Adventure through he Distillery District on our way to Mill Street. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=451843435894& ;set= a.394713550894.180917.214329270894
The first picture of the city lights peeking through the fog reminds me of a trip to Toronto I took with my boyfriend. Although he settled in my little gran balon home town, he was New York City born & bred. The night of our trip he spent a lot of time just looking out the window. I knew he missed his life in the city, but his love for me kept him in the country. He passed away 6 years ago. Thank you for the memory.
Hi, Nice article! Just so you know, I wrote a post about it: http://photographiclizard.blogspot.com/2010/11/toronto-in-fog.html Cheers
As a long time Torontonian,I appreciate the beautiful and unique pics. When it goes well with the righteos the city rejoices; And when the wicked peris
