365 days of Toronto

Get ready to shit bricks: this picture is not a painting, nor has it been doctored in any way, shape or form:

Photographer Michael Chrisman took a year-long extended-exposure shot of Toronto’s skyline, basically condensing a year’s worth of the Toronto skyline into one photograph. And he ended up with this. Holy shit, how pretty is that? This is the kind of painting I would hang up in my living room if I wanted to feel smart and sophisticated. And if I was able to use a hammer and nails without breaking my hand and knocking a hole in the drywall. Point is: SO PRETTY.
