the sun was shining brightly all afternoon, but slipped behind clouds just before sunset

big ice storm incoming, Toronto

but tonight is going to be mostly sunny, so you still have a chance to see something really cool

#Torontohenge

at 5:47pm tonight in Toronto, the sun will set directly over the east-west street grid, creating an effect known as Torontohenge (named after Stonehenge)

the effect is more dramatic amidst downtown towers

there are four Torontohenges each year --

Feb 15 (+) sunset
Apr 19 (+) sunrise
Aug 23 (–) sunrise
Oct 25 (–) sunset

(+) good pics for a week or so after
(–) good pics for a week or so before

while today is mostly cloudy, keep an eye on that weather forecast, and look for an opportunity later this week

#Torontohenge

this entire week has been clouded out

here's me yesterday on Bloor St at Church, looking west, hoping for a break in the clouds, but no luck

ah well, next opportunity is in February
