'Steel McCoy' (from 'Covers' series)

Thanks to the suggestion of my creative consultant, Rob McCleary, I went out and did some photos of street steel on Queen St. West. Steel like man-hole covers for sewer, telephone, and hydro-electric infrastructure. I also did a number of water, gas and even survey covers on the sidewalk.

You were right, Robbie. They are interesting! I almost got my head whacked by passing cars a number of times.

N.B. See the type at the bottom of the manhole cover? 'McCoy'? Mr. McCleary and I actually went to school with Kim and Dean McCoy. Their family business made McCoy covers and drains all over Ontario. Isn't that something? I wonder where Kim McCoy is these days.
