Shots at Dusk

[fsquare]

Packed up the gear and headed out after work. It's getting colder out there so trying to take advantage. C&C Is always welcome. I was trying to get multiple exposures along with some long exposures but forgot my shutter release at home so many of the multiple exposure / future HDR renditions went down the tubes. Both shots were taken with a D300s and a Nikon 10-24mm lens.

1. A little history behind this building. Inaugurated in 1847, Marché Bonsecours is acknowledged as one of Canada's ten finest heritage buildings and has become an essential stop on any visit to Old Montréal. Headquarters of the Conseil des métiers d'art du Québec (Québec Crafts Council), the Marché houses 15 boutiques featuring top-quality “made in Québec” creations: crafts, fashions, accessories and jewellery, design items, reproduction Quebec furniture and more. Its restaurants and their terraces are opened during warm weather and offer local fare. You can even share a meal in the 17th century ambiance of the famous Cabaret du Roy. There are ongoing exhibitions of contemporary arts and crafts, with free admission.
