Public transportation is always a good occasion to do a little bit of shooting. These were all taken at the “Métro Université de Montréal” station last Sunday using my iPhone 6.

186/365 – Next Stop: Khalid Bin Al Waleed
I haven’t been able to shoot every day lately. The selling/moving of our house in NYS has kept me busier than I wished.
Today is my son’s 24th birthday! I have been busy cooking all day his favorite food for tonight’s dinner.
So I decided to show you a couple of photos shot while at a photography workshop in Dubai.
The first one is from the Khalid Bin Al Waleed metro station and the second one was taken at the Burj Khalifa metro station.
86/365 – Modern Day Red Riding Hood
The moment I saw her with her bright red coat, I knew what I would do with the photo. She was truly popping out, like a breath of fresh air in this underground tunnel. Although the floor of the Lionel-Groulx Metro station makes a good attempt at being cheerful, to me the metro is always a drab looking place during the winter months.
84/365 – Transport me
I don’t live in a black and white world literally and metaphorically speaking. I actually love colors, they are very important to me. They lift me up, put a smile on my face, make the world a better place but lately, I am developing a new appreciation for black and white. The same photo can be so different in color or in b&w. Often times now, I make one of each. I find that from color to b&w, a photo’s mood can be altered, even convey a different message/story. In this case, I can’t really decide on my favorite one. I like then both for different reasons.
Here are the two and I am leaving it up to you to decide.
75/365 – Collateral Damage
The dirty side of winter.
It’s not pretty everywhere, all the time. In the city, in the Metro it is most often dirty, but as we say, it is what it is.
