A lazy Montréal Weekend Pictorial

An appropriate sign



A couple of nice rides...





You'd think everyone drives a Porshe in Montréal...



Or a fast car!



Of course we have a few buskers in Montréal as well.







Tatoos are prevalent just like in Toronto









Sculptures time!





But what makes a city is not the architecture...



... not the architecture but its people!

















And my actual last picture from Toronto....

I knew there was something special about those photos. The 85 f/1.4 produces a certain look that isn't easy duplicated. I'm still debating on adding that lens to my collection.

For street shooting, what's your response when they are looking straight at you while you're shooting them? In some of the photos, the subject doesn't look too happy with you photographing them. That's one the reason why I don't do much of it. People seem a bit leary when I'm pointing a 28-70mm f/2.8 or 70-200mm f/2.8 at them.
