Toronto Islands

Fotolog has made some changes:

bq. From now on, once a free account posts a photo, they will have 10 minutes to review it, delete and re-upload it if they made a mistake. After that, it will “freeze” – and if they delete it they will NOT recover their upload slot – they will have to wait until the next day for their next upload.

p. Evidently people had been gaming the system to upload more photos than allowed for the free members who are limited to one per day. I have wondered how long this neat service would survive before it fell to the tragedy of the commons, and thought that perhaps they had reached their limit the past few days when I could rarely get a connection.

This photo of Lake Ontario from the Toronto Islands was taken from the path that runs along the shore. I was surprised by the clear water.

Please view some of my most recent photos in Fotolog: Hanlan`s Point, Toronto Islands , Irish , South sky , Late summer sunrise , and Misty Mountains.

The bed looks presentable now that I cleaned up all the weeds in the courtyard in front of it. Of the herbs, everything I planted has done well except for the tarragon, and even it has grown a little.
