Cool shot, Dave! I have tried to get that statue in front of Union Station so many times, and I can never get it right. I've been trying to isolate it from the buildings around it (the station, as you showed, and the Royal York Hotel and Royal Bank Plaza across the street, and just haven't been able to do it. Your idea to use the fishey and sort of "integrate it" in with the Union Station behind it, is inspired! Really well done. For those of you who don't know it, the interior of Toronto's Union Station looks similar to New York's Grand Central Station, and is "made up" to look like even moreso in quite a few movies. I actually like the exterior better - as you can see from Dave's photo, it's Classic Revival (I don't know if that's the official architectural name - that's what I call it, anyway <g>), and is quite imposing in that 1930's "monumental, we'll make everything huge and gigantic" sort of way. But I digress... This should be about David's photo, which is quite marvelous, IMHO. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
