Mission Control

It's not all play. The fabulous life of a freelance writer/photographer also involves mundane (and much-feared) administrative tasks. On this rainy day I've spent a good chunk of the morning on the phone and online taking care of things like domain-name renewals, invitations to our upcoming photography shows Industrial Symphony and Heavy Water, equipment rentals, restaurant reservations (for an entirely different event) and bill payments.

This is the perfect time to look back to a brighter day. A few weeks back I snapped this observation tower on Cherry Street that looks out over Lake Ontario. I love its design. The staircase is also the support pillar and this reminds me of the sci-fi inspired structures I used to scribble in the margins of my notebooks as a child.
