The bright and intense red corrugated siding on the back side of the Dillon building as seen from Grafton Street.  It overhangs a stripe of pale grey concrete and some yellow brown solid foam along the bottom of the building. The repeating shapes of the chamfered pergola top of the Maxwell's Plum beer garden run at an oblique angle along the right hand side

Halifax councillors considering carpool lanes to help ease traffic congestion - Halifax | Globalnews.ca The mayor said he believes moving ahead with high-occupancy (HOV) lanes could help the municipality take control of its own roadways and planning.

Definitely a mid-winter downtown palette in effect yesterday: white, pale blue and gold, brown, rust and, copper with clear light on a cloudless morning

The strong vertical black and white lines of the Centennial Building at the corner of Sackville and Granville Streets are broken by a thin curved streetlight. The building is covered by light reflected from adjacent buildings. The left side of the building has a warm golden colour, whereas the right side is a cool pale blue

A shot I take whenever I'm in the area, hoping to catch a bird on the light someday. A nice dappling of light this time and an interesting warm/cool split that I haven't seen before

A pale golden brown brick building is lit at a sharp angle by early sunlight. It is small in the frame next to a dark grey building next to it. The much taller Maritime Centre sits darker in the background, looming over the other buildings

Saturday morning photo stroll yesterday... First one of the year that I'm in love with. The south end of Granville Street with the Maritime Centre looming in the background.

Two cats named Midge and Maud curl up together in a circle on a white bedspread. Midge the calico cat looks disapprovingly into the camera, while Maud the grey cat stays curled up. Their feet are all snuggled under each other to keep the toes cozy
