Hey all, A few shots from the winter months from Winnipeg. Known as one of the coldest major cities in the world, I have braved the cold to bring you some February night shots, along with some more recent shots as it spring arrives :)


L'esplanade Riel, with the downtown cluster in the distance.

I nearly froze off my fingers taking these pictures. -35c with the wind-chill. I often wonder why our forefathers built a city here.

Some of these shots were taken from our skate trail, now officially the longest in the world!

Bridges aplenty.

As we move into Spring, I'm much happier to be a Winnipeger. Though i don't denty I love aspects of winter, by March, I'm ready for Spring!

Cool shots! JustinL. We don't get spring here in St. John's until June,when the trees start budding. At least you guys have the nice mainland blue skies.......I'm envious!

1. Using a Tamron 17-50 f2.8 - on a 350d. Fantastic glass.

2. Yea, that car is sort of a father-son investement we made about 6 years ago. I'm sort of in regret about it, because it was a terribly costly investment, but every summer it becomes worth it again! :cool:

Thats a gorgeous WS6 you have there :tup:
