The Story Behind the Lens
It was a beautiful evening in June 2010 when I decided to take a drive down to the Cherry Beach and Polson Pier area of Toronto with my camera. From across the water, the Toronto skyline was beginning to glow as the last light of the day disappeared over Lake Ontario.
As darkness settled in, the city seemed to come alive. The lights of downtown Toronto reflected across the water, creating a quiet contrast between the stillness of the waterfront and the energy of the city beyond it. It was one of those evenings where simply being in the right place with a camera was enough.
More than a decade later, Toronto has changed dramatically. The skyline has grown, new towers have reshaped the downtown waterfront, and the city continues to evolve. That makes this photograph more than a view of Toronto—it is a small record of what the city looked like in 2010.
Taken from the Cherry Beach / Polson Pier area, this Toronto skyline photograph captures a moment in the city's history that can no longer be recreated. For me, that is part of what makes photographs of cities meaningful. They preserve not only a place, but a particular moment in time.
