Calgary Photos

I was in Calgary recently (damn cottonwood trees!) with a clumsy compact camera. Here's a few poorly composited, clumsily scaled and uncropped shots.

Really well done. I especially liked the one of Canterra tower and the grey sky. Great eye!

I was running back to the Sheratin for cover before the rain started to fall. Ended up getting pretty wet anyway with only a block to go after that photo was taken.

Flew through the storm on the way back to Toronto, so I got to experience it there too.
