A few of my friends are visiting Paris at the moment … and I’m itching to get back one day for a proper visit. This is a view of the Place du Trocadéro, foreground, with the skyscrapers of La Défense off in the distance as they appeared in late 2012. If I recall correctly, this view is from the Eiffel Tower.

This photo was taken last month at what I consider the southern edge of downtown Montreal. The major artery you see here is boulevard Robert-Bourassa, previously known as rue University. The street is still called University in the portion near the campus of McGill University.

A sunset-tinged sky is reflected in the windows of office towers in downtown Montreal, seen last month from the edge of Mount Royal Park near the Sir George-Étienne Cartier Monument.

Let’s wind back the clock a decade and visit with this skyline of Calgary from January 2008, seen from the bridge connecting Inglewood to the zoo. The city has changed so much in 10 years. No only are there a few more skyscrapers in the middle and toward the left of this scene, the bridge I stood on to take this photo has since been taken apart and replaced.

A view of Seattle in fading daylight, looking toward the Space Needle and Seattle Center, from the Great Wheel on the waterfront, from my first visit to the city in February 2013.

An obligatory skyline shot of Portland. The weather is brisk and breezy along the water … and that soft mid-morning December sun! Taken earlier this week from the east side of the Willamette River, just a few steps south of the Steel Bridge.

If you’re in even the slightest bit of denial over the snowfall that’s blanketed the Calgary area over the last couple of days, this snowless autumnal scene from a few weeks ago might cheer you up. Keep it on your screen for a little while and enjoy the fall colours under a moody sky.
