Queen And Bay, Downtown Toronto
Here Daily Dose of Imagery tests the limitations of how many colours the viewer's eye can stomach before something intense occurs. As mentioned in readers' comments the composition contains stark elements of contrast both politically, and spectrally.
I've previously said, more than sufficiently I'm sure, how much I enjoy the work of this aforementioned site. You only need view other photography at this same location to realise some work is experimental, personal and yet shared with us to illustrate the wide variety of undertakings. Other pieces presented are shown knowing with all certainty they will please the vast majority of viewers. I like to see an artist keen to share both the crowd-pleasing works and those exposing themselves to predictable, subjective, critique. To illustrate my point examine the archives for the photograph Burger King Crime Scene. Could anyone sincerely suggest that was taken with any pandering to create the response "oh nice, better bookmark this site". It's pleasing to see such variety.
In closing, I appreciate the irony in me being little more than a poor man's reblogger whilst singing the praises of original creative work. I am certainly not proud of this.
