The Allen Lambert Galleria and Heritage Square was constructed after an invited design competition in 1987. The atrium is a six story high pedestrian thoroughfare that connects Bay St to the west and Yonge St to the east in the Toronto Canada financial district and is frequently used as a showcase for major photography and art exhibits.

"When finished, the building generated controversy among many people who felt that it was 'too futuristic' for the city." (Thank you to a Wikipedia contributor for that piece of information) :)

Curve of the West tower of City Hall here in Toronto. The bird was a very happy accident as I was concentrating on the buildings shape and lines. I didn't even notice he was there until I uploaded the picture to my computer!

• Work from other photographers I find inspiring, interesting or just plain awesome that I feel deserve a bit extra promotion.

In the spring of 2011, the Learning Curve Photography self published our first book on Blurb. The book is titled SlutWalk Toronto 2011. The little book is square format and has 32 pages with 30 images taken during the first SlutWalk here in Toronto on Sunday April 03 2011.

Blurb recently introduced the option of publishing your book in digital format. Yesterday morning, I edited the original edition and made it available as a digital edition.

We're very excited and would like to extend an invitation to visit our store on Blurb and have a look at our first EBook, SlutWalk Toronto 2011 Digital Edition!!

I've been reading a ton of articles recently on improving the homepages ranking in search engines (SEO for all you geeky types). One of the things that is stressed in all these articles is the importance of backlinks, links from external sites to your site.

So, I'm going to set up a link exchange with any interested fellow photographers on the homepage. Basically the idea is I'll provide a very brief profile of you and/or an overview of what you do with a link back to your homepage if you do the same for me. I'd like to stress the importance of the word 'Exchange'. Hopefully, this will be something that is beneficial to both of us and get us both a bit more traffic to our sites.

Interested? Head on over to the Photographer Link Exchange Contact on the homepage:

Photographer Link Exchange Contact

and send me off some info about yourself and your site. If I get enough people who want to do this, the page with the profiles & the links will be up sometime during the week and will remain a permanent part of the site.
