    Default Toronto Irish Memorial

    This park is on the waterfront near Canada Malt Company silos (which they plan on tearing down, what a horrible and short term fix, it was a city icon for so long, I digress). THe park is a memorial for those who came to Toronto during the Irish Potato Famine. There are a series of statues among this small obscure park, the artist who did the sculptures is just phenomenal and what haunting looks he gave them. Anyway this is just me playing with shooting the statues, the biggest issue I have with photos of them they usually are similar, and doubt I made in progress in statue department, but I enjoy this particular photo and thought I would share it.

    Thanks, I have a bunch of them and I liked the result but not sure if of anything I would do with them.
