About one week ago I accompanied my wonderful 11 1/2 year old autistic daughter, Ava, on one of her Girl Guides of Canada outings to Casa Loma in Toronto, Ontario. Casa Loma is North America’s only full sized castle and one of Toronto, Ontario’s premier historic attractions.
In 1911 Sir Henry Pellat hired architect E.J. Lennox to build the 200,000 square foot castle on top of a hill over-looking Toronto. The castle was built at a cost of $3,500,000 and was, at the time, the largest private residence in Canada.
During my trip to the castle with the Girl Guides I took along my Nikon D800 and the insanely wide, and razor sharp, Laowa 12mm Zero D Lens to capture a few of the scenes that caught my attention. Here is a selection of those photos.

Excellent images Andrew! Did they allow a tripod? You should try and arrange an interior workshop in there.
Thanks so much Don! I should have mentioned these were handheld but i am inquiring about tripod use for a future visit and possibly a workshop too 🙂
I absolutely love these images, Andrew. You created such imaginative photos with that wide angle lens. Yes hope you can do a workshop there.
Thanks Theresa, I will keep you posted on the workshop developments for this location 🙂
I visited there when I was in high school! Very beautiful pictures – you brought back some fond memories 🙂
Great to hear! It was a fun visit 🙂
