A walk on Mount Royal in Autumn

Thankfully we chose yesterday to take a walk on Mount Royal, since today was not great weather-wise with mist and drizzle – compared to yesterday with +20 degrees and clear blue skies.

We began our short walk, near the George-Étienne Cartier Monument and took the path to the staircase that leads to the Kondiaronk Belvédère.

It seemed like the whole of Montréal had the same idea to head up the mountain to take in the glorious autumn colors on such a beautiful day.

I took a couple of extended exposures to try and purvey a sense of  the crowds on the mountain yesterday.

During the walk, I tried a few ‘abstract style’ shots…

I’m hoping the nice weather returns for a few more days at least this week, as I sense the peak of the Autumn colors will be finished by this time next week.

Thanks for stopping by. Until next time.
