Thanks! It was a lot of fun working on this with Søren. I really do like Substack for the collaborations and community. It sure as heck beats all the other social media sites for worthwhile interactions.
Thanks, Marcello! It was all Søren’s idea so he deserves all the credit for organizing it. Finding suitable photos was a lot of fun and it all came together well. Very happy with the results.
What a creative and fun way to share a little piece of Toronto! I especially love that last diptych, they're just perfect together. Did you two shoot first and then curate the images together afterwords?
We sent each other images that the other than tried to match. Six each. We then formatted at the end. We put each other on both posts as authors and each wrote our introduction to the project and then simply scheduled the posts to go live at the same time. It doesn’t have to be any more complicated than that.
That sounds like a fun but challenging process. I really like the idea of a simple collaboration like this, i've never considered that before. Great work!
Thank you. It is worth doing. Forces you to think and remember photographs that you had half forgotten…. Plus I got to chat with Mark. That was pretty good too :0)
I have never been in a city where a police officer on duty would wear a read nose! It was at the Santa Claus Parade, which happens each year in Toronto. Mark, where is your red nose from?
Awesome! This kind of collab is perfect for this platform and given me a few ideas. Great work both of you and the photos compliment each other so well.
yes to this! happy to see this going on, collaborations = community
Thanks! I thought you might approve :)
Hah, I agree.... Perfectlight, you are very much the glue!
not approve but appreciate 😉
👍🏻
Terrific pairings, especially the third and sixth. Collaborations sure help to knit the community together here on Substack.

Thank you 'Marks' - I completely agree. It makes Substack so worth while!
I agree. Substack is a much more collegial place. Instagram is a bad day at a bad mall by comparison.
great project. Both sets are cool!
Thanks, Dan!
Love it!! Great photos too!
Thank you so much, Juliette! We had a great time putting this together. Happy to hear that you enjoyed it.
This is such a fun idea!! Especially love the contrast of the 2nd and 5th photo sets
It was fun. The photographs came together really well..... thank you for checking us out!
Thanks! Really enjoyed putting this together with Søren.
Such a fun, cool collab!!!!
Thanks, Kewtiebird! It was a lot of fun working on it. Plus, it was good to get to know Søren a bit better. He’s a great collaborator.
Excellent fun!! Thanks for checking it out!
the first and last are hilarious. kudos!
Thanks, Mark! Those two were a perfect match.
Thank you for checking them out. They are fun!

Thanks, Sarah! Much appreciated.
Thank you, glad you like them!
So good to see both your takes on this city. Great concept for a collaboration and great photos, both of you!

Not true…. I just floated an idea. It was a joint effort!
True, but if you hadn’t kicked it off it wouldn’t have happened.
It is not a hard city to like and that makes it fun to photograph….

Definitely a lot of fun. The “challenge” was going through old photos to find an ideal match but, certainly for me, that wasn’t too difficult.
Glad to hear that you liked the collaboration. This is the perfect platform for something like that.
Great collab. I like it!
Thanks, Marcel! Glad you liked it. Søren was a great collaborator.

These are excellent! Love the clown! 🤡
I have never been in a city where a police officer on duty would wear a read nose! It was at the Santa Claus Parade, which happens each year in Toronto. Mark, where is your red nose from?
The cops really get into the spirit of the Santa Claus parade. My photo was taken on Queen Street West. It was the window of an “antique” store.
Great collaboration!
Thank you, Alicia! It was great fun putting it together with Søren.
Definitely!
Awesome! This kind of collab is perfect for this platform and given me a few ideas. Great work both of you and the photos compliment each other so well.
Thank you! This is the perfect platform for collabs.
Thank you!! It was fun....
I'm finally playing catch up on a few newsletters and this was a great surprise. Love the collaboration and the work.
Thanks so much, Glenn!
Thank you, Glenn. It was a fun project.
Wonderful collaboration!

Thanks, Joe! Glad you liked it.
