San Francisco, California, U.S.A.

San Francisco’s Ferry Building was looking particularly festive when I visited there earlier this month.

Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Sometimes, things just line up as they should. Spotted at the Calgary airport the other day: A Bombardier Q400 in the foreground in legacy Air Canada livery, a Boeing 787 Dreamliner behind it in new Air Canada paint, and the skyline of downtown Calgary between their tail fins.

I wake up to your sunset

I wake up to your sunset

Yup, another photo title modelled after song lyrics. You can see downtown Calgary off in the distance behind all the airport infrastructure.

To eliminate all manner of glare, I was holding up my sweater in one hand to try and block out some interior lights while taking the photo with the other hand. I’m sure I looked really goofy to the people around me but at least the picture turned out.
