Included in this bit of background on my interest in photography, I mention a couple of the ways that this particular photo has been used. It's curious to see how it has taken on a life of it's own, by virtue of the fact that I had decided to share it (under a Creative Commons license) with others.
Update (2008-Aug-27): I'm trying an experiment with this shot, on account of the tremendous feedback that I've received. Something that I've been curious about for a while is CafePress.com. So, as a test this photo has been made available for purchase as a framed panel print.
Thankyou everyone for your kind compliments. I must admit, I'm really quite surprised by the amount of attention and fantastic feedback that this photo has received.

As I was driving home on Christmas Eve, there was a broadcast antenna array that caught my attention. After having driven past it, I decided to turn back and grab some photos.
Foolishly, I neglected the fact that they were situated along a very snowy country backroad and became stuck in the snow.
Fortunately I was able to manoeuvre the car out of the predicament.
What fun!

Facing northwest.
The West Toronto Diamond. It's one of the places in Toronto where the CN and CP railway lines meet. This is also where the neighbourhood — known as "The Junction" — gets it name.
