…thanks to Ludwig for hosting Monday Window
In my daughter’s neighbourhood in Hamilton there is a wonderful selection of old vs new windows. Some of these windows were originally an old school and the addition on top is home to new condos.

…this week’s theme is chimneys




…thanks Becky for hosting January Squares
In the new addition at Sherway Gardens in Toronto they’ve installed skylights that run through an entire hall. I think they’re beautiful.

….thanks to Norm for hosting Thursday Doors
Like my Monday Windows post most of these doors are from my neighbourhood. Many still have Christmas wreaths hanging on the door.
….thanks to Becky B for hosting #JanuaryLights
Over at the mall a lot of natural daylight comes through the amazing skylights over the stores, especially in the new additions that were recently completed. This skylight is one of the original ones that went in during the last major renovation about 20 years ago. 
….thanks to All About Words for hosting the Creativity Challenge
Today I decided to play with the camera on my iPhone. I went to the mall to return a Christmas gift for my father and I noticed that if you look up there are some very interesting designs on the walls above the stores. I was more interested in the patterns and designs than the store names but you might recognize some of retail establishments in my montage of photos.








…do you have any windows to share for Monday Windows
Today I wandered into some parts of my neighbourhood that I’ve never explored before. I’ve lived here for over 41 years but there are streets further east towards Mimico that have eluded me. Today the conditions were perfect for walking.
Many of the homes that I saw today are close to a hundred years old and are need of some TLC but the charm and original beauty came through the blistered paint and rusty eaves. Others were in great shape and some were replaced with new and more modern structures.
Some of the newer places were meant to look old but many were very modern with large windows and simple lines.
….check out Monday Window for more window shots
All these window shots were taken inside Montgomery’s Inn. It is one of many Toronto Historical Museums and the one that I volunteer at two days a week.
….thanks to Monday Window for hosting this challenge
I love these geometrical windows inside the Royal Museum of Ontario looking out over the city.
