The heart of Calgary’s central business district during the blue hour, seen a few days ago. Clockwise from top right: The Bow office building, the double towers of the Suncor Energy Centre, Brookfield Place, Hanover Place (not one of the tall towers, however) and the under-construction Telus Sky.
Also: wide-angle lenses are fun.

From last fall, a rewarding view of downtown Calgary from the upper section of Edworthy Park in Wildwood. I could have got there the easy way, by driving over and parking in the lot by the dog run. Instead, I took the bus to the Parkdale side of the park for a nice afternoon urban hike.

The Bow Building in downtown Calgary seen from a different angle — from my point of view anyhow. Here it is from its east side, flanked by the old downtown fire hall on the left and the North-West Travellers Building on the right. Tucked in behind bottom left is the new Telus Sky building, which is much taller than it appears here!

Looking up at the part of the city skyline along the 7th Avenue transit mall in downtown Calgary.

This photo was taken last month at what I consider the southern edge of downtown Montreal. The major artery you see here is boulevard Robert-Bourassa, previously known as rue University. The street is still called University in the portion near the campus of McGill University.

A sunset-tinged sky is reflected in the windows of office towers in downtown Montreal, seen last month from the edge of Mount Royal Park near the Sir George-Étienne Cartier Monument.

A view of downtown Montreal from my old stomping grounds, Concordia University — except the place where I snapped this shot, the EV building (Engineering, Computer Science and Visual Arts Integrated Complex), didn’t exist when I studied there.
