This is an awesome chalk conception of Calgary, spotted in Hillhurst a couple of weekends ago.

Views such as this is why people like to hang out in the dome-observation Skyline and Park cars aboard Via Rail’s The Canadian. Got this image last month as the train made its way westward toward the town of Jasper.

Samis Rd. just below Rotary Park is one of my favourite viewpoints for photographing downtown Calgary. Just one downside: The Calgary Tower isn’t visible from this angle.
I guess I’ll have to take another visit to Scotsman’s Hill instead. One of these days. 🙂

It’s been raining a lot in Amsterdam since I got here, so it’s made it difficult to get loads and loads of good outside shots as I usually like to do. Here’s one taken from Westerkerk, between showers.

It just occurred to me the Calgary skyline poster at the top of this blog will soon need overhauling. Since I snapped that photo almost three years ago now, a truckload of new buildings have popped up in the core, including a couple that are still under construction. In fact, there are so many new buildings this city’s office vacancy rate is expected to soar in the coming years.
Anyway … time to hoof it to that parking lot on the east side of Nose Hill Park for a refresh, don’t you say?
