  Just like that, we're at the last installment of Frugal Film Project 2022. For December I'm in one of my favourite parts of the city, "the in Between neighbourhood". Between Rosedale, Rathnelley and Yorkville, and maybe the Annex depending who are you talking too. I don't photograph in this part of town anywhere is often compared to some other neighbourhoods. Yonge St. transitions from the high rises of Bloor St. and points south to more low rise developments until you hit Deer Park around St. Clair.  I'm looking forward to the Frugal Film Project for 2023, with a different camera from the Nikon stable, the Nikkormat FTn, and we're rolling with a different film stock, Kentmere 400, stay tuned!  Camera: Nikon N90S, Nikon AF-D 28-105 F3.5-4.5 Zoom Lens.  Film: Kodak Ultramax 400.  ]

For those who have never been to Toronto, it's a big city, really big, and spread out. Midtown historically would have been sorta round Yonge and Bloor, now it stretches from Davisville up to almost Lawerance Park and around Yonge St. and Eglington is fast becoming a neighbourhood of highrise apartment and condo towers, displacing older apartment buildings and offices that were built in the 1960s. Even Cnaada Square, home to Canadian Tire's corporate headquarters and the studios for TVO have been chosen as a site for redevelopment at some point. That's an insane thought a two tower office complex is slated for redevelopment even though you have long term tenants (large Canadian hardware retailer and a publicly owned broadcaster). That's insane.  Camera: Nikon N90S, Nikon AF-D 28-105 F3.5-4.5 Zoom Lens.  Film: Kodak Ultramax 400.
