You're right great shots again this week. Thanks for including my High Five, I was going down to the lake to try and get a good sunset shot and saw this High Five for Peace grafitti and of course I just had to take a photo of it!

Wow. I mean, I always love the picks every Friday, but this week's selection just blew me away. Congrats everyone!

Thanks again, BlogTO, for featuring some of my work here in your weekly roundup!

Pride dominated my visual landscape this past week - living a few doors north of the corner of Yonge & Wellesley, this certainly didn't come as any surprise. My girlfriend and I moved in about four months ago, and while she unfortunately had to duck out of town for Pride weekend, I was totally psyched out about peeking my legs out the window and getting hit with a few thousand water balloons!

The vantage point I had on the parade was simply fantastic - if you've never watched the parade from above, I'm happy to confirm your inevitable suspicions that it's CLEARLY the way to enjoy the show - and to get more reactions to your catcalls, I might add.

The woman I snapped leading the rainbow flag down Yonge (and presumably up Church, and across Bloor) was quite near the parade's start, and her facial expression caught me right away. There were a huge number of smiles last Sunday, but hers was the one that stuck with me - so genuine and beatific!

Thanks again for the feature, and congrats to all featured fotographers on the AWESOME work here, this week and all others! I can never get enough Zanta, and News46's red light runner is a really cool long zoom.

2006 called: they want their Flickr fads (read: HDR) back.

1998 called and they want their ugly, frame-based website back. Did that yourself, didya Trevor?

Just be happy (not catty) that you made the list pal - I checked out your work, you got lucky.

I think Trevor's photography is exceptionally good, and that he has no reason to be phased by invading trolls. I'd love to see your photographs, Leo.

Congrats to everybody on some really nice photos, despite what some might say.
