No Smoke, Just Plenty Of Mirrors

The wall of the Conference Centre gives off unusual reflections from here of both the Rideau Canal....






...as well as the National Arts Centre.

  13. @Jan: I will have to photograph spring and summer reflections from here.

    @VP: it replaced its predecessor beautifully. The old Congress Centre was a very inward looking structure.

    @Tamago: I can see that!

    @Cheryl: thank you.

    @Ciel: every once in awhile when I turn up here I get carried away.

    @Marleen: I am looking forward to seeing the tulips return.

    @Mariusz: spring still seems elusive in these parts.
