Mood lighting, Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Decorative lighting, strung up along the urban canopy in Calgary’s Kensington neighbourhood, lights up the night.

Montreal, Quebec, Canada

A view toward the iconic Five Roses flour facility, Peel Basin and beyond from the observatory atop Place Ville Marie in Montreal. The viewpoint usually closes around dinner time but it happened to be open late as part of a winter festival on my recent visit to the city.

Life support system

I don’t often do photos as abstract art but I found this one oddly satisfying to capture. These are sources of light from various exhibits seen through cascading water in the life support system section of Ripley’s Aquarium of Canada in Toronto.

Flocons sous les pieds

Someone who left a comment under this photo on my Flickr feed said this was in fact their *favourite* kind of snow. He’s not a winter sports type, I take it. Spotted in Montreal back in late 2012.

This canopy of light leads the way on the walkway surrounding Calgary’s Olympic Plaza, as seen late this winter.
