Something new everyday...

If you keep your eyes open in Montreal, and get out of the house, you can learn something new everyday.  And I never leave home without my camera because without it I might forget the little things that catch my eye during my outings. 

Case in point:  Art in the Metro stations.  I've noticed this before, but it was not until I stopped at the De Castelnau station that I fell in love.  Check out these bas reliefs by Jean-Charles Charuest.



Read more about these pieces (and see many more of the reliefs in the series) at this fascinating site about the Montreal Metro.  I am hooked on it, and thank my lucky stars that someone (specifically Matt McLauchlin, who also seems like a pretty cool guy)  has put so much effort into such a worthy project.
