Great light, great texture to be found in an alley adjacent to the hotel.

Hard light. Hard lines. A view from above later in the morning proved fruitful, turning a plain ‘ol stop sign into a strong graphic element…
Doors and graffiti, for whatever reason, continue to interest me. Found an alcove along Barrington that offered both…
From graffiti to what appears to be a commissioned mural. Low, warm light was trucking down this street. Got the camera up just in time to catch this old guy making the hard ascent up the hill. Fortuitous as I had seen him earlier and wanted to capture him somehow.
Colorful. Seems to be a good descriptor of the city and the people here. So I guess the following from a local street merchant is somewhat relevant…
Finally, another trip up towards the Citadel. Actually got there after closing, but the hill top and rising moon seemed interesting. And the approach was lit from the setting sun bouncing off an opposing office tower. Convenient.

Fortunately a seagull was cooperative enough to pass by and add some additional interest.
During a break in meetings the following morning I was stopped in my tracks while passing by St. Paul’s Anglican Church. It’s an odd sight to see a building simultaneously back lit and front lit. I’m still not entirely sure where the front reflection was coming from.
Finished off the trip with a walk around downtown at the conclusion of our sessions. The last of this trio is an HDR capture looking down Barrington Street – amazing clouds!
Glad I had the chance on Thursday for these, as Friday’s weather was brutal.
