Yesterday I had a date with Santa Claus. To be more specific, it was a much anticipated date I kept, to photograph the 111th Toronto Santa Claus parade. It was wonderful to see and capture all the colour, fantastic costumes and gaiety of the parade. I mingled with the excited crowd of spectators, and took pleasure in watching the gleeful faces of kids and parents alike, as they beheld this spectacular sight. Here are some of the highlights;

Obviously, I had competition. These days, everyone is a photographer. (?)

It was warm and sunny

Best seat in the house.
But not everyone was amused
