Trees and Bridge (H) November 20, 1994, Don Valley/Bloor Viaduct, TorontoThis photograph is a deliberate effort to contrast the forms of nature and that of the constructed. After several previous unsatisfactory exposures, from further away over the previous year, I borrowed from the past and moved in close for a tightly composed picture including just enough form to make a recognizable likeness of the place while finding the viewpoint and the framing to make this statement. This was the last photograph I made in the Don Valley during that period and by including the bridge, foreshadowed where I would look next for a new assignment in the street.
