So much going on. The tilt-shift of the construction site made me smile and chuckle.

Real nice shots of a booming prairie city..I liked the different scenes.Kudos!

Thanks HIMS! I know fake tilt-shift is a cheezie gimmick but it is fun once in awhile!

Thanks Razor I appreciate your comment!

A few more pics from a leisurely cycle on the Bow river pathway today.
Most parks are still officially closed because of damage from the recent snowfall so we weren't sure where we could go but we had no problems.
Calgary has 550 kms of bike paths and 260 kms of on-street bike routes. There is a definite need for more cycle tracks to keep cyclists safer from motor vehicle traffic.

Great shots of Calgary. I´d love to visit that wonderful city. Thanks for sharing.

Nice job Jimby.

Awesome mountains and booming skyline.

Somehow missed this shot. It's nice that you got the snow on the mountains before it melted away
