I take this bus everyday, Express Chevrier, from Brossard to Downtown.

Nice set of pictures, many places are familiar to me :tup:

[malek]

i still don't get how gutsy you are taking pics of people right in their face :)

[excel]

Great photos. THanks

Obviously this photograph is awesome.

[keninhalifax]

Ah. Each of your photothreads is better than the last! You've really captured the mood of the season with your latest set, KT.

[Serge]

You last

[monctezuma]

16 - WOW !!! Could be a front page of the best social magazine
23 - Nice shot

[Marc B.]

Number 102 is awesome.

I really look forward to your threads. They're very inspiring. Can't wait until the spring when I can get out and take pictures of Winnipeg. My clunky old Pentax SP1000 doesn't like the cold.

Wheelchair epidemic?

you basically took this from my new balcony. southern mile-end is a bit more boring, but i guess the anglo-plateau is closer - whatever that's worth.

if i lived somewhere else i would be homesick as anything after this thread.

[Andy6]

Thanks. Great shots of the Winnipeg of the East. I might try to visit Montreal someday.

[kool maudit]

Winnipeg of the East.




oh dear.

what to say?

we may have a few abandoned factories, and even a lost head office or two - but our candy-store iconography remains far, far more unsettling than that of you western upstarts.

come on:

you have to at least give us that.

[Andy6]

Aieeeeeeeeee!

maybe I will visit ottawa instead

[Kilgore Trout]

good lord. that thing is going to give me nightmares.

you basically took this from my new balcony.

you must live next door to some of my friends...

actually, most of my friends. for some reason they are all clustered on villeneuve street.

[iamthewalrus]

magnifique.MTL is gorgeous
you even took pictures of my old neighbourhoodé: beautiful côte-des-neiges
its a shame its so dirty in CDN.

[Jollysnork]

Another great photo essay. Thanks KT.
Walrus, I don't get your dirt-CDN comment. The pics show what cities are. For reference, check out the Los Angeles equivalents. I fear NYC may be too big a leap!
Pax

[JivecitySTL]

Oh my god.

[Kilgore Trout]

CDN is a dirty neighbourhood, relatively speaking, but a large part of the blame rests with a laissez-faire borough government that doesn't do much in the way of maintenance. whenever there is a snowfall, the borough just waits until the snow melts for days or even weeks after it has been cleared from other boroughs like outremont, the plateau or ville-marie.

not surprisingly, though, NDG fares a lot better than CDN even though it is managed by the same borough council. it's also a lot wealthier... hmm.

[elsonic]

best photos are #1 to #110

good job setting and directing all those peoples!! they look so natural.

[TheMeltyMan]

You and some of the philly guys are my inspiration at the moment. Not necessarily just for quality but for the rampant energy to walk countless circles around the city it seems.

[Wheelingman04]

A near perfect city.

[Ex-Ithacan]

You've made street life/people pics a sweet science KT. Wonderful thread, thanks.

[Segun]

Man, whats up with those Ice storms.

[KevinFromTexas]

Damn. I started to view this thread yesterday but got distracted and ended up not getting back on the forum. These are fantastic, KT.

They're all top notch, but these made me gasp.

Bike on a roof?

[Echo Marion Bailey]

Kilgore-
I enjoy how you see Montreal. Good photography. Do you do black and white?
You have a natural and passionate affection for the city, which is apparent. Have you ever taken photos near the Old Mission Brewery? (At times it can be full of life, especially around 5ish.) I used to work with some regulars who visit there and they are friendly people and good subjects. I think you would get great montreal stories from some of them and capture them beautifully. Its easy to volunteer whenever you want, helping with random things for an hour, and from there you might find great things to capture. You would be perfect for that. Just a thought.

[Kilgore Trout]

hey, not a bad place to keep it... at least it won't get stolen! (maybe.)

i've taken photos around centre-sud and the village, but nothing in the immediate vicinity of the old mission. my time is taxed enough as it is to volunteer for any more places, but i'll consider going down there for photos. thanks for the advice!

[Echo Marion Bailey]

Cool. Consider it Kilgore. After following your posts for months I consider you one of the best photographers in this forum. I only mentioned volunteering at the Mission because it would get you close to the subjects. I dont know how you do it, your photos are daringly personal. Do you hide behind trees?
Anyway consider that area. The Old Brewery Mission has a lot of potential, its diverse and full of people who are ugly, beautiful, lost, psycho, hopeful....damn its just overflowing with photographic promise. Your photos tell a story and there are so many there. Just think of it as the ethnoburb of the broke.

[Kilgore Trout]

since the next montreal thread won't be until may, i thought i would bump this back up to make sure the forum has enough MTL content.

besides, it's mid-fucking-april and there's a SNOWSTORM. what the hell? the weather was nicer in january!

[malek]

the weather was nicer in january!
:(

[Nouvellecosse]

Truly a classic! I was just viewing the offline version I saved on my HD, and I realised I hadn't bothered to comment lol. The pictures in this thread r enduring and truly memorable. I've gotten lots of enjoyment from it (and still am).

[yarabundi]

Great thread. You, people from outside make us see our city from a very different point of view. Pic no 42 : "Entrepot Domestique". They were my movers two years ago !!

[habsfan]

Great thread. You, people from outside make us see our city from a very different point of view.

Yara, KT is a Montrealer!:D :cheers:

[Rico Rommheim]

^:haha: ouch.

I envy the KT, for me wen I walk accross the city (it happens often) the city just looks so dull and boring yet for you its a goddamn amusement park 24/7! Gret set man, great set!

[Evergrey]

amazing photos

[Canasian]

Man I love the vibe of MTL! Graet shots!!

[denveraztec]

Wonderful photos, thank you!

[Top Of The Park]

...thanks for the interesting shots
