Early Morning Labyrinth Walkers at the recently repainted Grange Park Labyrinth . . .

Before it was depainted.

Capture-wise,

The canary yellow outline of the Labyrinth Design works well in contrast to the Giant Wall of Sky Blue colouring the south wall Grange Park facing side of the Art Gallery of Ontario.

From now on,

Maybe I will no longer repaint the Grange Park Labyrinth using shades and tints of Blue.

Yellow may be the way to go.
