Ashbridge Bay Park
March 19,2015 – 8:20PM (-14 Deg. C)
I’ve been a constant sunset chaser ever since I’ve continued my photography here in Toronto. Come rain or shine, hot or cold, whenever there is a sun setting, I’ll try to be there (except for extreme cold temperature as my DSLR is not weather sealed).
Ashbridge Bay Park is located in a beautiful area on the waterfront in the east end of Toronto. It was named after Sarah Ashbridge, a widow and British loyalist from Philadelphia who settled here in the 1790’s and obtained a Crown Land Grant to start her own farm. Ashbridges Bay was once part of the large sand dune chain spanning the majority of the Toronto Harbour. These dunes were the result of sediment from the Scarborough Bluffs being deposited by the currents from Lake Ontario. ( source : Toronto Parks, Forestry & Recreation website )
