Spring fog rolls through Toronto

Posted by Derek Flack / April 7, 2011

Spring Fog TorontoThis is something of a companion piece to last week's more typical early spring photo roundup, which included things like melting ice, budding trees, and overly keen tulips. Along with all this colourful stuff, another sign of spring that's appeared in the blogTO Flickr pool is fog photos — something that I've been waiting for. It's interesting to search back on Flickr for these and to find that they basically cease to exist between December and February (with a few exceptions), and then return in full force come March. Here's a little sample of what's been uploaded so far.

There was no fog in Mississauga. Only fog in Toronto. Therefore Toronto breeds fog due to density and bicycles.

Correlation doesn't imply causation

My colleagues were complaining about fog in Mississauga on the way into work this morning.

They're not tilt shift lenses, it's just idiots using software, whether it's in camera effects or in photoshop. Most people who own tilt shift lenses know enough about photography that they know what they're for.
