Ottawa skyline pictures I took in 2015. Not the best quality, but fairly rare angles.

This one is from near Lemieux Island, our main purification facility. The building in the foreground burnt down years ago (it was like that when my mom worked there 20 years ago), but they still haven't demolished it. Historical designation?



Near the same spot, but without the burnt building.



From Les Galeries de Hull.

Keith Moore is consistently one of the top few urban photographers in our town.

Old picture though, I'd say 2015....

The best angles are from the south shore.

Great shot of Edmonton....Yea, it must be the UofA campus. Looks like a nice campus....those are some massive residences for students though.
