I photographed the boats from across the water, keeping their reflections and the tree-lined shore beneath the clouds. This colour nautical view shows the quieter side of Toronto’s waterfront.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI like the way the boats stay low while their masts reach well into the sky. The hulls and dock form a steady horizontal band, and the trees behind them give the pale vessels a darker background. Small ripples break the reflections into softer shapes near the bottom of the frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe clouds are long and fairly low, adding another set of horizontal lines above the marina. Their darker edges keep the warm sky from becoming an empty field. I left plenty of that light in the photograph because it changes the mood of the boats without hiding their detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is a sense of order here, but the different hulls, cabins, and mast heights keep the scene from feeling repetitive. I wanted the photograph to hold those differences within one broad, calm view.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Toronto Island marina print can bring a gentle nautical accent to a living space or study. It offers a familiar lakeside setting for someone connected with Toronto, or simply a quiet arrangement of boats and evening light. For me, the delicate masts are what join the water below to the sky above.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e© Dan Kosmayer, 2012\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dan Kosmayer Photography","offers":[{"title":"8 × 20 inches (20.3 × 50.8 cm)","offer_id":40427653922895,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 × 24 inches (25.4 × 61.0 cm)","offer_id":40965124161615,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/9685\/2047\/files\/Toronto-Island-Marina-Boats-Beneath-Evening-Clouds-Photo-Print-1.jpg?v=1792337532","url":"https:\/\/dinkosmayer.com\/products\/boats-at-the-toronto-island-marina","provider":"Dan Kosmayer Fine Art Photography","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
