A Walk Around Montreal

Looking Up

In November 2016 I had a couple of days in Montreal for work. I got away for a few hours to have a look around. To get lost in the city and find some of the atmosphere of the place. I found the people friendly and the city a pleasure to walk around. So I would recommend it for a visit if you are passing.

Blue skies and city-scapes.

Old and new together.

City streets.

Light.

Sun setting as clouds drift in.

Street scene.

Street sculpture.

Reflections and sky.

Old Port train tracks.

Everywhere you go!

Old Town.

Monument Life.

Indoor calm.

Nightfall in the city.

Artists in the windows.

Night Streetlights.

For my next trip.

Lots to see I know, and as I headed out of the city towards Toronto and my next stop, I sat amazed at the distance travelled in such a short time. The technology that we just expect to keep improving and working for us. We should remember though to slow down too, to see the sky above us and the world around us. Otherwise what are we doing?

Enjoy the sights around you and take some time to look at things with a visitors eyes for a while. You will see your home a bit differently.

Fragments

We keep the words clear,
from the edges of the page.
To hold them back somehow,
to create the margins we need
to survive.

Niagara Sunrise

Sunrise

Visiting Niagara Falls again for work, and with odd hours I get to see it in the quiet times. Being up and about at sunrise, to see the world turning around the sun. I am always shocked at how quickly the sun rises and the light changes.

Time and Tide.

Changing Views.

Autumn Colour.

My creative work is coming in fits and starts, I want to get back on track, so resolutions in place I will continue to build on the work I am doing. For now, Merry Christmas although for that I am a bit late. More importantly, have a fantastic New Year, continue to follow your dreams, to go places and to visit the world, eyes open and with a sense of wonder.
