Watercolour coming alive

After the United Brotherhood Of Carpenters and Joiners left their longtime home on 10 St. N.W. in Calgary, a temporary wall went up around it … and soon after, the art began to appear.

Art in progress

Hollywood & Vine

Reaching a little ways back into the vault … here’s a photo from my visit to Los Angeles last year, from the Hollywood/Vine Metro station. Love the culturally appropriate film-spool-ceiling-tiles.

Holding out against the tide

With an entire neighbourhood disappearing around it, this house near the Calgary Stampede grounds has somehow withstood the changes. At last report, it was to be moved to make way for a condo project. When I last visited it at the end of April, it was already it pretty rough shape.

Métropole dorée

One more skyline photo to round out this week’s series of posts featuring city views. This is of Montreal in the autumn, captured on my phone from the Olympic Stadium tower back in 2011.

Bustling

This is a busy scene at the old Fulton Fish Market near the South Street Seaport in Manhattan, New York, from back in August 2011.

Winter makes comeback

Nothing unusual about this scene happening in May, I swear. Captured on my smartphone Saturday morning.

Carpet of petals

A sidewalk in Northeast Portland is beautifully camouflaged by fallen petals. (And I can say it also smelled fantastic!)

No one's judging

An interesting twist on an old expression. Another snapshot from my recent visit to Portland, Oregon.
