Long way up

It takes a few minutes and costs a few pounds to get to the top of the Monument in London — but the view is lovely.

Rising over the Thames

Être libre de temps en temps

At least that’s what the graffiti says. Seen in Paris.

Rush hour

On the Toronto subway, looking at the far platform from my train car, through another subway train as it starts to leave the station.

Doggy bags

I’m not sure what’s more shocking: That one of my pictures was “invited” to be added to a Flickr group called “Doggy (poop) Bags”, or that a Flickr group called “Doggy (poop) Bags” even exists.
For what it’s worth, I found this cute container in the Dumbo neighbourhood of Brooklyn, N.Y.
