Awesome shots... I've been there, and I know how difficult it can be to get some of these shots (especially #1).. there seems to always be someone or something that's unwanted in the frame.. you captured the flame well.

Nice shots. It's been a long time since I've been there. These make me want to go back.

The third has VERY pretty colours, and the first is just lovely in its showing JUST what it is meant to show, no more. No less.

Great shots!

You make it look so functional from the outside...

Very nice. I especially like the third image, of the library at dusk....absolutely lovely.

Did you get any pics of the skaters on the canal? I hope to make it to Winterlude this year (but I've said that for the last 10 years and it hasn't happened

)

No, I haven't yet, I'm too scared that I'll fall on the ice when I have my camera out. lol
