A bench sandwich

Taken back in September, beyond Berri going east.  Totally residential, nice and quiet.  Reminiscent of "a building sandwich".

The hunter trapper

Réflection de l'homme en bronze: "J'espère qu'il ne rateront pas la Place d'Armes comme ils ont raté la Place Jacques Cartier...!" il se dit en fixant les architectes paysagers au loin.

Lumières

Place d'Armes, all in blue. Before the -8 C sets in, I thought I would finally comply to a request I've been putting off for a good week!

University reflection

It was an amazing reflection, just begging to get shot as I walked by yesterday. Lighting can just tweak it all perfectly sometimes.

Menacing outlook

Look at that sky! YMC took the shot. As it gets cooler outside, the steam gets more and more condensed. I know, I fiddled with the steam to get it more contrasted and it shows.  I also know, Molson is in the news...pure coincidence I swear.

Still trying to figure it out

I love this old church. It's been through a lot. I would love to pay it homage, somehow, through my photography.

La Place Jacques Cartier

La pauvre Place Jacques Cartier, tellement malmenée. C'est histoire, c'est patrimoine, c'est trop con que les gens de Montréal la perçoive si mal. Si vous lui donniez une petite chance, vous vous rendriez peut-être compte qu'elle essaie très fort et ses gens, ses Montréalais lui manque énormément.

Up, up and away....

You cannot be afraid of heights for this job! Fixing building borders at arms length at I-can't-even-imagine-how-high heights.  To see the wonderful results of this man's work, go to the corner of Notre Dame and St-Vincent in Old Montreal.  L'ancienne bâtisse de la Sauvegarde.  Amazing what some sandpaper, some paint and a lot of elbow grease can do to put right this great piece of architecture.

Last glimmer of light

Before the storm, as the sky was going darker and darker, the dome reflected the light from the last corner of light in the sky.

The wooden stairs

Shadow, wood. Careful with that first step though. Create a postcard
