500px's own "Rooftopper" walks into the sun.

Thanks for the welcome home rooftop party guys!.

The a city block in the Toronto Financial District reflects in the foreground building. Forget Occupy Bay Street -- Occupy Rooftops.

My CGI skills are improving every day.

Condos in Toronto. It did well on Flickr, why not 500px?

Despite having five hours of sleep in the last 48 hours, I just needed to get high. I almost forgot why I love this place so much. Thank you Toronto, I'm home.

...just sometimes. And often times, stairs lead you to a wonderful place up in the sky.

...so I don't have to jump.

This is my bread and butter. Shout out to Roof Topper for helping me out with this shot.

It's been awhile since I've been on a rooftop. This is the view of Binh Thanh District in Ho Chi Minh City from 37 floors up. Pose held for 30 seconds.

...if you dare...

Former 500px Media Director Jennifer Tse will do anything for the shot.

I'm no Tomms and Peter is no Jen T., but it doesn't stop us from trying our best.

I'm glad Peter decided to perch out on this spot because I sure as hell wasn't going to. On the plus side, he probably had one of the most unique views of Pride.

Note: it is as dangerous as it looks, so please do not try this at home.

Too much history coming down
Another building brought to ground
Roads that come together, memory never severs
The love'll never sever for me

Can't I make you see?

Some cities crush
Some cities heal
Some cities laugh
While other cities steal

Feeling in a rut with my photography work as of late, I ascended to the heavens, looked down, and got my mojo back.

You may have noticed lately that I haven't been posting that many rooftopping photos; opting to hit the ground level in search of interesting life on the streets. I even declared that rooftopping was "dead to me". But as things come in go in a cyclical manner, I bet these feelings won't last long. Onward and upward.

Perhaps I was being a little over dramatic when I proclaimed rooftopping as being "dead to me". What I was getting over was the planning and expectation. Since that post I've only been on a handful of rooftops; none of them planned. Rooftopping just came to us.
