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.

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.

Just some random signage pointing to an out-of-the-way glass/window shop, spotted on a street in Montreal last winter.

From a couple of months ago: Wandering around the non-U.S. departures hall at P.-E. Trudeau airport in Montreal to gawk at some public art.

Here’s another giant mural in Montreal’s Plateau Mont-Royal area. This one’s behind Moishe’s steakhouse (if I remember correctly), spotted back in February.
