window and street lamp
on a quick weekend trip to montreal, i managed to get a few hours of touring in after attending a family function. this window and street lamp were photographed in the old port area of the city.
i don’t get back to montreal nearly enough – i know there are many gems there for the camera…

cabin on the pond
exploring the area just north of yellowstone national park, i ended up on some gravel roads in the back-country hills. this scene came up as i made my way up to what would be a surreal experience… further on up i came into this strange hamlet with a few old shacks and trucks. there was an eerie silence as the sun was going down – most memorable was the rather large man sitting on his stoop, staring at me as i drove by… i was definitely far away from home!
the sun was going down in the west as i captured this. what you are seeing is the sun’s natural colour reflecting off the trees on this sepia-toned image.

still standing
on the northeastern tip of tobago lies the village of charlotteville. upon my approach into the village, i noticed this charming old wood house nestled among the trees and vegetation off the main road into town. though i believed it to be abandoned, it was not, as i heard voices coming from within. it’s amazing how many of these old wooden homes are still standing throughout the sister islands of trinidad and tobago. some seemingly on their last legs, as it were; most abandoned and decaying…

from the median
standing on wrightson road near independence square in port of spain on a median as cars whiz by on either side of me. memories of doing the same thing near the eiffel tower in paris all those years ago…

performing arches
the national academy of performing arts building (napa) in port of spain. This is a tough one to photograph as the lighting is somewhat sporadic. there is always a blue/purple glow about the building. the red/orange in this instance was presumably used for the performance on the following night. There are light towers on the grounds surrounding the building, which i am sure are meant to light the exterior space but i have yet to see them turned on. according to a security guard i spoke with, they only get turned on when an event is taking place…

city from the hill
another find… port of spain in all its glory at dusk from lady chancellor road. a cool drive along a narrow winding road into a pretty exclusive residential area. near the top are magnificent views of the savannah and the downtown core beyond. the road itself is frequented by walkers, joggers, and cyclists – depending on the time of day you do have to take care while driving for all the people going about their exercise routines.
