I dont normally get out that way but there was a Japanese festival yesterday so we went along for a look it was very good amazing food, grey skies but no rain, I should head up there again with my good camera on a sunny day.
Calgary and one of his skyscrapes. Wonder if they are office...
How are you all? Sorry for absence. This covid situation is not easy to manage, but I'm fine. Are you all ok?... And the stress for this election days by you?
I'm curious, are you with Trump or against? ;)

A big embrace

A shot taken while we were waiting for our flight home to Sweden. I think I was standing on a big parking lot while shooting this. Wish I had more time to spend in Calgary!
From what I managed to google:
The golden tall buildings is "Western Canadian Place". I really like the rounded corners on those.
The tall left one is the "Nexten building".
The right bluish one might be a "Petro Canada" building.
Updated with info from dj m@:
"Angular building on left is Nexen Building, building in middle with square windows is 777 8th Ave. building. You correctly named the gold towers as Western Canadian Place. The big tower on the right is called Eighth Avenue Place - it was just finished a few months ago."
Post processed? Yepp. With Aperture, NIK software Suite, and GIMP.
View of Calgary city centre (east end) from the Centre Street Bridge.
The river seen here is called the Bow River.
We stayed at the Delta Hotel.
Telus is one of Canada's Big Three telephone, internet and mobile phone providers.
The circular building is The Bow, at 58 floors it was Calgary's tallest office building when completed.
In a distance behind The Bow is Calgary Tower.
Happy Fenced Friday! This is near our fabulous Calgary Zoo - from the pathway west towards Tom Campbell Hill Natural Area, with its glorious views.
Another shot from my lovely downtown Calgary photographic adventure of a week ago, here you can see one of the many lovely parks that dot basically the entire city.
It is one of those things that make Calgary such a lovely city, the fact that they are always taking nature into account and making sure to include natural spaces even in the urban downtown core!
Here you can see the clouds just starting to be illuminated by the soon-to-come sunset, set against a deep magic hour sky.
Hope you have all had a great week, and wishing everyone a wonderful weekend ahead!
Calgary's newest foot bridge is open at last it was delayed by 1 year due to the floods. I can see this becoming a very busy bridge when the rest of the new park is opened.
As seen from the Skyline Viewpoint, with the Scotiabank Saddledome in the foreground.
