Since the first round (http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showthread.php?t=149408) was such a rousing success (:rolleyes: does anyone actually click on St. John's threads?) here is round two. Again, here is everything taken between the first and last click. I make no promises on further rounds. While I may be obsessive compulsive it's tempered with a lousy attention span.

This time I choose the easy level with an area more typical of photographs you'd see around St. John's and some nice early morning sun. After a dull and grey winter it is time to kick out the summer colours. I even had the sunroof open yesterday and this morning. Of course the forecast is for rain this afternoon.

All photos are linkable to flickr to see the original sizes.

Great, I like the clickable/flickrable format.

For your next round, you could consider including some of St. John's Victorian mansions, around Circular & Rennies Mill etc.; they are always interesting too, and somewhat unique.

"The Benevolent Irish Society (BIS) is a philanthropic organization founded on 17 February 1806, a month before the Feast of St. Patrick, in St. John's, Newfoundland. It is the oldest philanthropic organization in North America." - or so they say.

I'm as irreverent as anybody, but dude, that's just nasty.

Great shots! Keep it up. I really want to visit the the Maritimes.

This was very cool. I like shots that are closer-in like these; I like to just study the various objects in them and just think about things. Well that was a bit of an over-statement, but you get the idea (maybe).
