Nathan Philips Square (like you've never seen it before)
You may recognize this awesome shot of City Hall at Nathan Phillips Square, taken by Toronto photographer Sam Javanrouh (of Daily Dose of Imagery fame). It was featured on the cover Toronto magazine Spacing's 7th issue.
Sam has delivered a couple more interesting, mind-bending views of the beloved/dreaded square. Cruising the blogTO Flickr Pool, I stumbled upon his "tunnel" and "planet" versions.

Ahh, I've seen these. I like them, but they make me dizzy for some reason. Talk about art moving people!! wah wah.
Sam Javanrouh is a true artist with the camera.
We are fortunate that he lives here and shares
his work with us.
I always thought the third photo would be great for a light, fun Toronto Tourism campaign. It'd totally work for that all "Toronto is the world" stuff we love to show off.
Toronto is full of amateur photographer, which is pretty cool. Sometimes you go to a street event and there are more photographers than the public watching the event.
IMO that's great because it gets people used to photographer and allows some of us who to get really close.
Sam is a gifted photographer; DDOI is the first site I visit every day.
hes just copied another photographers who did this before... is that what being called an artist is now a days?
I love these images of the square but was glad someone else mentioned the vertigo thingey. I suddenly felt sick LOL.
