Summer Lovin' at the Bus Stop

True story:  I carry vintage action figures in my purse just in case I find the ideal situation in which to photograph them.  When I say that out loud, it sounds kind of crazy, I admit, but let me tell you, when you've got to wait for the bus for 20 minutes, it can be quite an entertaining activity.

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.
