Prague, Czech Republic

Prague Castle, seen at dusk from the opposite side of the Vltava River at the end of the Charles Bridge. From my travels through Europe at this time last year.

Spine

The west tower of Eighth Avenue Place might have the prettiest emergency exit stairwell in all of downtown Calgary! Snapped this image last week.

Shooting the shooter, shooting the shooter

Here’s someone taking a photo of someone taking a photo. So naturally, I had to take a photo of them. Snapped on Stephen Avenue in Calgary a few nights ago.

James Short

A splash of colour on the cupola of the old James Short School breathes a little visual life into this scene in downtown Calgary. Behind it is the Bow building on the left and a portion of the Suncor Energy Centre on the right.

Secular and religious

Here are two adjacent landmark towers in eastern Berlin.
One is a TV tower constructed by the communist East Germans as a status symbol visible from far and wide.
The other, Marienkirche (St. Mary’s Church), is the oldest church in Berlin. The land has been home to a church in some form or another since at least 1292.
