CHUM-City Empire

Welcome to the Chum-City empire. Here at the Corner of Queen and John Streets is the home of City-TV, Much Music, Much More Music, CP24, Bravo!, Space, and a bunch of other television stations. This beautiful old building has been wonderfuly taken care of by CHUM for years. I personally love the red window frames. 'Speaker's Corner' is probably the only unattractive part of the building really.

Post: I had to stitch this from two images as I did not have a lense wide enough to fit it in the frame. I don't think you can see where the stitch line was though. ;) Otherwise no post was done. I used the Auto Exposure lock to ensure both photos were taken at the same exposure.

It is a cool building. Looks like it might be cool at night with the signs lit up too. I can't see a stitch line. Well done.
hey sl,

very nice angle. i really like this shot a lot. the building is a terrific display of terrific architectural detail. i also really like the red window frames. to be honest, all of the signs on the bottom floor do not seem to go with the building. i really like the way this building sits against the crystal blue sky. excellent capture sl.
very cool shot. Are those power lines for electric buses? We don't have those here in Victoria, but Vancouver has then all over.

who would have guessed this to be two shots? very well synthesized and captured. The feel that the two shots being put together gives is quite something. It definitely works for me, well done.
Nice shot - I like it and thanx for the informations with it smile
