Nuit Blanche

As promised in the existing Nuit Blanche thread, what follows are some photos I took that evening. By no means am I a good night-time photographer, so the quality isn't always the best. Also, I've decided not to caption them as I want to portray the sprit of the evening more so than I care to describe the individual installations (and yes, I'm feeling lazy tonight).

Anyway...enjoy!

Nice shots. Looks like a great time, the city should do more stuff like this.
 
Fabulous fog shots. The Nuit Blanche video at the ROM made me think of the WTC collapse.
 
Holy crap that looks cool! I hate that I missed this due to being out of town. Next year!

Thanks for the pics.
 
Great pics, truly brings out the best in Toronto's art scene.
