A love letter to Toronto in 10,000+ images

Toronto TimelapseDoes Toronto ever look better than when it's presented in timelapse sequences? Maybe I need to get out more, sure — but tributes like the one below tend to draw into question the idea that this city is anything less than beautiful. The latest in a series of high quality timepases comes courtesy of Ryan Emond, whose previous video Day to Night got some well deserved attention earlier this year. It features some stunning neighbourhood and rooftop sequences, reminds us that the SkyDome (yup, SkyDome) is still pretty cool, and just looks slick overall.

Here's some pre-Halloween eye-candy. Enjoy!

The song samples Imogen Heap, but is called "I'm God," and is by Clams Casino. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbvrM6Nj2Ok&;feature=related

Enjoy

The intro to this film is copycat from this footage http://www.blogto.com/arts/2010/10/a_time-lapse_video_of_every_stop_on_the_yus_subway_line/. In fact, many of these shots have already appeared in other timelapse videos that are much more artistic and superior to this. This film is not very original and Ryan should consider doing more unique shots of his own.
