[IMAGE-HEAVY THREAD!]
This sub-forum has been dormant for a while now. Has everyone given up on their Stormtroopers/Pandas/bumble-bees? It has remained my main camera for the past few years - I've acquired an x-10 but haven't quite bonded with it , so I've pretty much learned to live with it --> quirks and all
I recently took it on a trip to Montreal and thought I'd share some photos here ... just to show that this old grand-daddy is still alive and well. I used the Tamron 2.8 28-70 (70%) and Pentax 50mm 1.8 for the shots.
Pictures taken on a short cruise along the St. Lawrence River:
City Skyline:
Tour Guide:
'Habitat 47' - each cube sells for ~ CAD 1M:
More Skyline:
Bow view:
River view:
On deck:
Grain Silo:
Tower clock - I wasn't paying much attention but I may have heard the guide saying that this was a gift from the British and that the clock is a replica of the one in London:
Docking:
The long walk:
Around the 1976 Olympic Village:
Daredevils:
Inside the Biodome:
View of the Park:
Stadium, with athletes' village in the background (photo taken through the elevator glass while ascending the tower):
