Halifax, Nova Scotia

Nova Scotia. A bit of an experiment. The image was processed in DXO Optics Pro 10, exported as a DNG file, WB adjusted in Lightroom CC, then the image was resized twice at 110% in Photoshop. Finally the detail was increased in Topaz Adjust 5, giving a final image of 18mp from a 12mp file.

Latterly with Travelsure, Northumberland (as 648WHK).

Purdy's Wharf is an office complex located in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Built over the water at the edge of Halifax Harbour and resting on pilings, it consists of two office towers, and a smaller office structure called Purdy's Landing. Purdy's Landing is commonly referred to as the "Xerox building", due to a large Xerox sign that used to hang on the exterior of the building. The complex also contains a seven-story parkade as well as pedways connecting the complex to Casino Nova Scotia and the Downtown Halifax Link system.

 

Purdy's Wharf has a unique, energy-efficient cooling system that works by circulating sea water through a heat exchanger system with the building's cooling water. The colder sea water chills the building's cooling water, which is then circulated through the buildings.

Ex Tayside Citybus/RV G91PES is now owned by IOU Theatre in Halifax, converted principally for use as a mobile seating rake for outdoor performances. Today it is in use as Halifax's first (I think) City Sightseeing-ish tour bus. Uniquely, the passengers will enjoy a view of where they have just been, rather than where they are going!

Ex Isle of Man Transport FMN503T - thanks to Danny for assistance identifying this vehicle. See tags.

HALIFAX FLEETLINE

Three Yorkshire Tiger vehicles laying over in Halifax Bus Station - shortly to be 'improved' (the bus station, that is). The Town Hall flag can be seen at half mast marking the death of HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, a few days previously.

Cascaded from Arriva Yorks, and latterly based at Huddersfield, Tempo YJ09EYG is here taking a local service in Halifax. Yorkshire Tiger is to be sold to Transdev later in 2021, complete with premises at Huddersfield and Elland, the staff, and 61 vehicles. YJ09EYG is in typical current fleet condition, looking unloved with a replaced panel missing the branding.
