Helpful Posts: Taken during one of my Sunday morning walks with my good friend Sid.
We were passing the University of Toronto's Varsity Stadium when I noticed the running track through a metal gate, liked the clean lines and curves of the lanes and grabbed this shot.

Re: Curvature of space-time
A very dramatic set of sweeping curves. Had been hoping you had provided the definitive answer to the mystery of gravity. I will just sit here awhile and enjoy the tranquil white on blue pattern before continuing my relentless search for a solution.....

Mike/Paul,
Thanks for the kind words.
Paul,
I actually worked out the solution last night, but I seemed to have left the piece of paper in my other pants. Sorry. Maybe later.

Re: Curvature of space-time
Good choice of lens to produce that nice recession around the curve.

Any photo opportunities are secondary, and are just quick grabs. My friend isn't a photographer so I'm not inclined to take any more than a minute or two to shoot when we walk.

Re: Curvature of space-time
Very nice grab shot then, Robert. On the other hand, it is nice to have someone to complain with.
