Project 365 – Day 152: Views from around the Old Port of Montreal

May 31 2012

Since I had to go down to Old Montreal this morning, I decided to take a few shots while I was down there.

The morning was bright but with some really great cloud formations and decided to shoot HDR to make the clouds look a little more stormier than they really were 😉 It didn’t even rain, but then after Tuesday’s storm (that I now hear was 80mm in 30 minutes rather than the 50 I reported), I think we have had the quota for this summer !

    Fantastic pics Martin. I haven’t had a Felix & Norton cookie in in a very long time. Great article about you and your work. I check everyday to see what you have been shooting.

      Thanks Lucie for your dedication checking in every day 🙂 You will probably be surprised to hear that I resisted the cookies…but now I know where the van is 😉
