Toronto<\/strong>. My good friend and fellow photo enthusiast George Dunbar sent me a note about one of my favourite photographers – Edward Burtynsky. George writes, “Some wonderful photography in Africa by Canadian photographer Edward Burtynsky……here<\/a>. [The] pictures from above – \u00a0What a bird’s eye view of Africa reveals.”<\/p>\n

I first saw Burtynsky’s work at a TIFF showing of ‘Manufactured Landscapes”. I later saw one immense photograph taken in China hanging at the AGO.<\/p>\n

Note: The title of this post came to mind due to my love of lateral thinking. Africa reminded me of the song of the same name by Toto<\/a>. In the story, “The Wizard of Oz” which I saw in a movie house as a kid, Judy Garland’s character had a little dog called, “Toto”. The post title paraphrases a line she said to her dog after being carried aloft by a tornado.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
