2nd picture that's ended up on Explore!
Get it?.....instead of the yellow brick road, haha.
The building in the distance with the dome is the Via Rail Station and also where I work for Environment Canada. I'm lucky to have all the shops and restaurants at The Forks right outside the door, not to mention the Human Rights Museum and other cool areas to see. Great for lunch or a walk along the trails.
Below are a few places I took cell phone pics on a stroll a few weeks ago.
Excerpt from www.cambridge.ca/en/learn-about/resources/Dickson-Hill-HC...:
Dickson Hill is one of the most unique communities in the City of Cambridge.
Dickson Hill is named for the Honourable William Dickson, a prominent Galt settler who arrived to the area in 1816. Dickson is credited with founding the Village of Galt due to his considerable land holdings and was responsible for much of the commercial development on the west bank of the Grand River.
His son, William Dickson Jr., acquired most of the lands that currently make up the residential area of Dickson Hill. His own residence, located at 16 Byng Avenue was constructed in 1832. The development of the residential component occurred over several decades and by a series of developers. Florence Dickson, niece to William Dickson Jr., and his heir, controlled the development of this area until the 1890’s.
Dickson Hill features an extremely high concentration of significant buildings of various types: residential, institutional, commercial and manufacturing. In addition to the buildings, key elements that define the character of Dickson Hill are:
• Tree-lined streets;
• Distinctive globe street lights; and
• Prominent urban public spaces and landscape features.
This is an HDR with all Photomatix controls on overdrive. This was taken at dusk, just before it became compleatly dark. So it's a kind of night photography. The dynamic range of the scene is really difficult to handle. To get both detail in the clouds as well as the brightly lit lightposts requires a small workaround. Most prosumer DSLR's can only take 3 shots on AEB mode with maximum +/- 2EV spacing. Here I took 4 shots at f8.0 (1/8s, 0.5s, 2.0s, 8.0s) and to be honest I had two extra exposures for 0.5s and 2.0s which I accidentally threw in as well and I have no idea if they make any difference.
In photoshop I only used the curves tool in LAB mode and reduce noise to the sky.
I know that the composition could be better. I would have preferred to position the camera more to right and have the church more to the right and the lightpost a bit more to the right. But would have been difficult because of a house just outside the left part of the frame.
Rehoboth Beach, DE
This osprey shows up every day to enjoy his lunch of sushi at his favorite light post....
Paseo Fernando Quiñones is located at one end of La Caleta beach and is formed by a long and narrow promenade over the sea. This narrow strip of land is actually called an isthmus because it has water on both sides. This bridge connects the mainland with the nearby Cádiz Lighthouse and the Castle of San Sebastián that is found at the end of it. This walkway has wonderful vistas along with stunning views of the sunset!

A pair of Cooper's Hawks have a nest right in the neighborhood and have been providing great views for passerby's. The size difference between the male and the female is pretty obvious up close, and the male has been bringing food back to the nest a couple of times a day.
. . . I was expecting to possibly spot a nice Snowy Owl, but instead a Red Tailed Hawk was on a lightpost checking the area out for mice. This is a good sign, that all the new construction around Chums Corner will not scare away the raptors from hunting here.
Have a great week Facebook, Flickr, and 500px friends!
A view from the Halifax waterfront. Taken at predawn when the colours can be quit different. The island is Georges Island. The twisted lamp posts were designed by NSCAD alums Chris Hanson and Hendrika Sonnenberg, the ‘Fountain’ lamppost shoots a stream of water into the harbour. Not far away, ‘Get Drunk, Fall Down’ features another lamppost slumped across the pier, with its concerned friend looking down
Study of part of one of the light posts that line each side of Balboa Park's Cabrillo Bridge.
I liked the colors created by the flaking paint, and obviously it's quite a target for spider webs.

P.S From the other side of the harbor the full moon was rising.
Who can say where the road goes,
Where the day flows, only time?
And who can say if your love grows,
As your hearth chose, only time?
Who can say why your heart sights,
As your live flies, only time?
And who can say why your heart cries
when your love lies, only time?
Who can say when the roads meet,
That love might be ,in your heart?
and who can say when the day sleeps,
and the night keeps all your heart?
Night keeps all your heart.....
Who can say if your love groves,
As your heart chose, only time?
And who can say where the road goes
Where the day flows, only time?
Only Time - Enya
