Church Street

The Town of Ajax recently renovated one of our oldest churches, St.Francis de Sales, located on Church St. in Pickering Village.

These photos were captured before the changes and add-ons; St. Francis and Church Street’s surroundings at their finest.

You’re my summertime

Generally, I am not a fan of summer. Let’s be honest: it’s hot, sticky, UV rays scare the sh!t out of me, and I think I have a sweating problem.

But despite my natural instincts to stay indoors, hide away in an air conditioned house, and stare at my beautiful Backstreet Boys posters … sometimes you have to suck it up, embrace it, and enjoy the sun!

The outside

A summery walk along the main street in Niagara-on-the-lake got me this shot. What can I say? I love close-up shots!

Behold the turtle

“Try to be like the turtle – at ease in your own shell.” – Bill Copeland

Words to live by? I think so.

I’m so shattered

Duffin’s Creek attracts all types of pedestrian traffic, along with cyclists, skateboarders and rollerbladers. It’s used so frequently by the young and young at heart; so, it’s disappointing to see vandals destroy parts of it.

This photo was taken on it’s pathway, amongst a burnt down garbage can and an array of litter. Thankfully, the mess has been cleaned up since this image was captured.
