When we only have an hour and no time to drive to the many trails around Quebec City our default walk is along the Rivière Cap-Rouge. Even late in the afternoon near sunset (4 pm currently and still getting earlier), we complete our 5 km, Four-Bridge Walk in just under an hour. If I'm stopping to take pictures we need a little more clothing and a little more time. In the photo above Paulette is pointing the way across snow-laden Bridge #2. I'm shooting with a 70-200 mm lens at f/4 and ISO 800 so digital noise is a problem when you look at the image full size. The same is true for the reindeer-on-rooftop near Bridge #4 taken ten minutes after sunset.
Christmas light are a welcome sight in December, dispelling the gloom of shortened days.
C'est bel et bien vrai que l'hiver est arrivé chez vous. Nous n'avons qu'une petite poussière de neige.
ReplyDeleteComme toujours, de très belles photos Andrew. Je trouve cela intéressant que le «bruit» soit un problème à 800 ISO. Je pensais que les nouvelles appareils photographiques permettaient des vitesses à haute vitesse.
Continuez à vous amuser dans votre petit coin du monde.
