Looking through a skylight in downtown Edmonton, under a bright afternoon sun. Snapped on a recent visit to Alberta’s capital city.

The Montreal Transit Corp. (Société de transport de Montréal, or STM) recently began revenue service of its next-generation métro cars. Dubbed “Azur”, the STM’s MPM-10 rolling stock is being built by a Bombardier-Alstom consortium. The order is for 468 cars, assembled in nine-car train-sets.
As the newer-model trains are gradually delivered, they will replace vintage MR-63 rolling stock, in service since the Montreal métro opened in 1966.
I only got a brief glimpse of the new Azur train at the Mont-Royal métro station on my last trip to Montreal, on its second day of revenue service. Perhaps I’ll be lucky enough to ride one upon my next visit.

Here’s an old-school bike sitting outside an old-school local neighbourhood general store. Snapped outside Bridgeland Market in Calgary this weekend.

This was a nice, quiet walk on the way to the royal palace in Oslo last week.

Some random nonsense captured out the window of an Amtrak train as we idled at the station platform in Olympia, Washington, back in February 2013.

Well, more like the car’s windshield … but you get the idea.
This is from one of our frequent rainfalls earlier this summer.

So do you call this Flickrmatic or HipstaFlickr? This is some conduit at Place-Des-Arts métro in Montreal, first shot with Hipstamatic on iPhone 4S (John S lens; Ina’s 1969 film) then seen through the new Flickr iPhone app’s Iguana filter by Aviary.
