[niccanning]

Great pictures as always!

[Horsell]

I see the snow didn't stop you from getting out and taking some amazing pictures...a Winter Wonderland.

The white of the snow seems to enhance the other colours...brilliant !

[Architype]

Thanks for posting these. Some of the wild landscape colours are unreal, and yet the effect of the bright houses is not lost in the snow. This must be one of the snowiest winters for this early in the year, and a great start to your thread. :tup:

[Townie709]

Thanks for the beautiful winter photo set, signal! I've really been missing these the last little while. Hopefully we'll get some big proposals this spring to revive discussion here! :tup:

Plus, happy new year to everyone!!

[Architype]

Where are these houses?

[SignalHillHiker]

Those are on Signal Hill, at the corner of Howe Place and Quidi Vidi Road.

[Townie709]

Spectacular night shots! You did the impossible, you made Atlantic Place look somewhat attractive in the 5th photo haha! Seriously though, great photo set! Those should definitely be shared in the national section if you haven't already! :cheers:

[Architype]

Compliments on the great photos, this one is especially nice, a good pov.

Absolutely beautiful photo set!! Great to see the sun out and the Temp above zero! Once the snow melts, our favorite season here at SSP starts... Construction season!!

Awesome photo set! Made my day

[Townie709]

Seeing how this thread has been dead forever, I decided to get up early this morning and take a few pics of the first sunrise in North America! I'm no professional photographer but I hope you enjoy!

Hey, as I mentioned in the other thread, Townie - you're an awesome photographer! I love those pics. Especially the sunrise ones with ice-covered bushes.

Literally jaw dropping photos!!!! I'm in love xD

Edit: we must have been really close to eachother today because I got an almost identical shot of that yellow boat in front of the iceberg! What time was it and where was it taken??

[SignalHillHiker]

Thanks, Townie. :D

The biggest iceberg of the year crossed the Narrows this morning. :)

Set to one of our most emblematic folk songs. The Peace Tower on Parliament Hill in Ottawa (Canada's capital) played this song on its bells when we joined Canada in 1949.

On a side note, does anyone know why the clocks on the Basilica's twin towers are set to different times? Just curious.

A gorgeous summer day in St. John's.

Skipper and his missus were sot up in one of the busiest intersections in Rabbittown right at the bottom of my street reading the paper.

http://www.signalhillhikerphotography.com/St-Johns-in-the-Summer-Sun/i-GrRd355/0/XL/IMG_4063_edited-L.jpg (http://www.signalhillhikerphotography.com/St-Johns-in-the-Summer-Sun/i-GrRd355/A)

Walking downhill toward downtown. I really love the change that's happening lately where people are going SUPER bold with their colours. It was always bright, but the colours were just more saturated versions of normal, suburban colours. Since the suburbs are now that colourful, homeowners downtown are going all out.

My favourite thus far is bright purple with powder blue trim and orange shutters/door.

Skeets guarding the stairs to bum smokes from folks descending to the downtown.

It was so nice to see a few people on the go. The city has felt deserted with all the 8C weather over the past few todays. It was still a little dead by the time I got to go downtown, but I cherished every minute just the same.

http://www.signalhillhikerphotography.com/St-Johns-in-the-Summer-Sun/i-NqnddL4/0/XL/IMG_4067_edited-L.jpg (http://www.signalhillhikerphotography.com/St-Johns-in-the-Summer-Sun/i-NqnddL4/A)

Wing'in It is a VERY popular and expanding local wings franchise, and it's close to new Gower Street, which cuts through Old Town with its modernity.

The Queen's Road Store has been a local landmark my entire lifetime, and probably much longer. It's not quite a dep like our superettes, but close.

George Street was pretty full for before end-of-workday, which was lovely. And although it wasn't hot enough for the hotties to have their shirts off, at least they were out.

The corner of George Street, Water Street, and Beck's Cove.

Ziggy Peelgood's, man. You don't even know. Fries, dressing, and gravy at 4 a.m. on George Street. Yes, ma'am.

My ratio of visible minorities to whites in many of these photos is higher than the city's average, BUT that's how it was in the downtown today. Very nice to see!

Water Street East, heading away from the bustling area.

A couple of violinists were out doing their thing.

The steep stairs next to the Supreme Court of Newfoundland:

Heading toward Harbourside Park and the National Memorial Memorial. We could hear bagpipes, apparently there was an impromptu session on the go. Some hipsters even joined in with drums.

I took about 10 photos of the crowd playing the bagpipes. I chose this one for an obvious reason. :haha:

And St. John's is all decked out for Pride Week. I took these on my short stroll - Pride flags only. I'd have to take a picture of every business if I included Pride posters, etc.

, I meant this one sorry.

[MrChills]

It's been SOOOOOOOOOO long since I've been on here.. Not sure what happened, it was a daily place for nearly 10 years and now probably a year since I've visited the forum. Anyway, I had to pick my jaw off the floor for some of the photos Signal. Amazing! I have some new screen savers to add to the six monitors I sit in front of at work tonight. Don't be afraid to add some more! :)

[SignalHillHiker]

Hehehe, aww. :D Thank you!

Open Doors

This weekend, St. John's - the capital of Newfoundland and Labrador - threw open the doors to many of its buildings that are normally not accessible to the public.

We - Joanne, Aisling, Shannon, Marc, and I - went to at least half of the downtown ones.

NUsoVlDFqZg

We started at the Supreme Court of Newfoundland and Labrador. It's still a proper English court, they start every session with "Hear ye, ye, ye!" and all of that.

This is the backside. It's like 10 floors high on the other side. :haha:

http://www.signalhillhikerphotography.com/Open-Doors/i-wcx4ZCx/0/XXL/IMG_6954_edited-L.jpg (http://www.signalhillhikerphotography.com/Open-Doors/i-wcx4ZCx/A)

The High Sheriff was such a charmer.

The building had some interesting views of the backs of Duckworth Street buildings. St. John's is steep. All of these buildings are 2-3 floors at street level on the other side.

http://www.signalhillhikerphotography.com/Open-Doors/i-G4vC8rQ/0/XXXL/IMG_6966_edited-L.jpg (http://www.signalhillhikerphotography.com/Open-Doors/i-G4vC8rQ/A)

Then it was on to the Roman Catholic Basilica of St. John the Baptist. It was the inspiration for St. Patrick's in New York City. Their bishop came to the consecration and was annoyed that St. John's had a grander church than New York City.

St. Patrick's passed St. John's to become the largest Irish-built church in North America (we're still second).

The church boasts a number of relics (Saint Theresa's kneecap, etc.) as well as many statues and crosses of which there are only a handful of other versions (almost all of which are in Ireland or the Vatican).

The adjacent convent hosts the world-famous Veiled Virgin statue, but it's rarely accessible to the public. We missed this month's two tours by one day.

http://www.signalhillhikerphotography.com/Open-Doors/i-bfzNkZL/0/XXL/IMG_6991_edited-L.jpg (http://www.signalhillhikerphotography.com/Open-Doors/i-bfzNkZL/A)

The church has a crypt as well, where the bishops are buried. Roman Catholicism was illegal in Newfoundland until 1832, so Catholic churches only (offically) date to then. Our oldest Anglican Church of England church is from 1699.

Then it's on to the Newman Wine Vaults, where Newfoundland's famous port is made/stored.

And then Government House. Traditionally, this was the residence of our Governor General (Queen Elizabeth II's representative in Newfoundland, and our official head of government). Since joining Canada in 1949, it is now the residence of our Lieutenant Governor (same thing, but second to Canada's Governor General).

Then on to Commissariat House. This place is awesome. They host dinners where you can pay $65 to dine like a servant, or $125 to dine like a member of the household.

Gower Street United Church, one of the very first non-Anglican, non-Catholic churches in Newfoundland. To this day, those are the two dominant churches. Everything else is an also-ran.

Home to some of the most fucked up crosswalks in St. John's. When we joined Canada in 1949, we switched from driving on the left side of the road to the right, and we also abolished all the city's roundabouts.

The resulting mess makes about as much sense as you've expect.

The pink, the Rose of England shows
The green, St. Patrick's emblem, bright
While, in between, the spotless sheen
Of Andrew's Cross displays the white

So hail the pink, the white, the green
Our patriot flag, long may it stand
Our sirelands twine their emblems trine
To form the flag of Newfoundland

And then it's on to the fishing village of Quidi Vidi (if you're from there, you pronounce it Kwhy-da Vye-da; if you're from anywhere else, you pronounce it Kiddie Viddie), which is just over the hillside from downtown - literally five minutes. This is closer to downtown than our generic North American suburbs. :haha:

[SignalHillHiker]

Now, on to cruise ships!

September and October are cruise season in St. John's, when the vast majority of liners that visit our city arrive.

They come in Autumn primarily because we're not popular enough to warrant Summer/Winter visits, which are typically in Europe and the Caribbean instead. And Spring is our foggy season so it's not wise to come then.

But I don't mind it at all. I love the last surge of tourists the cruise ships bring when the regular fly-in, drive-in crowd have long since returned home.

Also, most of the passengers tend to be European - which is always a lovely treat.

The city goes all out for the cruise ships as well. They have many of our most talented musicians welcome the ships, they get the excitement of sailing through the narrow entrance of our harbour on a massive liner, and - no matter the time of night of their departure - the city puts on a show, firing its cannons and serenading the passing ship from Fort Amherst. At night, it's so quiet you can hear every note, and hear the clapping and cheering from the passengers. I love it!

So, a few pictures of two ships that visited this week:

For the second liner, Ayreonaut, Aisling, and I hiked out to the edge of Signal Hill to get it from the other side. It got too dark to get really beautiful shots by the time it left without them being blurry. But it's still a wonderful experience.

If you look at the city itself, you'll see two bright lights already shining. Those are the pilot lights. Ships entering the Narrows have to have those perfectly aligned with one directly above the other in order to safely pass between the rocky shores.

I hiked up to the top of the Southside Hills to check out the Autumn colours. There were some patches that are starting to change - but it wasn't worth the hike. Took some shots of the dearest city in the world to me instead. ;)

[SignalHillHiker]

So, today I cried in the streets. No joke. And I have no idea why, really - it's not a particularly emotional issue for me. Today was the March of the Florizel, the re-enactment of the Royal Newfoundland Regiment's 1914 parade from its barracks in Pleasantville to the St. John's waterfront, where the men and boys boarded the Florizel and headed off to defend the United Kingdom.

More than the entire population of St. John's at the time turned out to see them off in 1914. And, while the crowds were smaller a century later, they certainly didn't disappoint. I was expecting something similar to the annual Battle of Britain Parade a few weeks ago - a couple hundred in the parade, and maybe 100 onlookers.

I was all smiles, enjoying the pageantry of it all, until I saw the crowd following the parade to pay its respects. Hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people, unscheduled, just marching through the streets behind the parade in silence - and dozens of them wearing blue Forget-Me-Nots (it's like the poppy in Britain and Canada, which we also use).

It just... slayed me. I could hardly talk. :haha: So ridiculous. But gorgeous day for it!

[SignalHillHiker]

I woke up at 5 a.m. this morning and couldn't get back to sleep, so at around 7 a.m. I decided to go for a little walk about town.

This time I went west, almost as far as the Village Mall, and took some photos in the Waterford Valley/Riverhead/Old West End neighbourhoods, where I rarely venture.

http://i60.tinypic.com/2jbkz04.png

63K5VMx2BZM

Leaving my street. Mind the poles.

http://i59.tinypic.com/10msfeu.jpg

The skeetiest house in Rabbittown.

http://i57.tinypic.com/imnjmw.jpg

Pennywell Road. Not to be confused with New Pennywell Road and Old Pennywell Road.

http://i59.tinypic.com/2eofgy1.jpg

Mind the bay windows blocking the sidewalk.

http://i57.tinypic.com/34gwsp4.jpg

Lipstick on a pig, b'ys.

http://i57.tinypic.com/2uqkpw9.jpg

http://i57.tinypic.com/ibaw42.jpg

Peeking down a little side street. You can see Signal Hill from everywhere.

http://i60.tinypic.com/27www95.jpg

WAY more duplexes out in this part of town.

http://i60.tinypic.com/2cpxef9.jpg

http://i57.tinypic.com/28jv3eq.jpg

Brazil Street. People in the West End had their views blocked by modernity decades ago. They're still pissed off about it and show up to protest every proposal. "If this was a wealthy area, the city would've never allowed these buildings to go up."

http://i61.tinypic.com/6ye7gw.jpg

There are some nicer sections out this far, though.

http://i61.tinypic.com/m9un8i.jpg

Many of the people who live on this street chose it for the name. I know a couple. Considered it myself. :haha:

http://i61.tinypic.com/10qxrao.jpg

SO MANY DUPLEXES.

http://i59.tinypic.com/2v2wpw7.jpg

:( Rest in peace, fair lady.

http://i57.tinypic.com/2mo9ilf.jpg

If buy a case of beer with your welfare cheque, get drunk, and squint... it could be an homage to Montreal.

http://i60.tinypic.com/2zssmft.jpg

Lots of apartment buildings tucked away in the central courtyards of the duplex blocks.

http://i60.tinypic.com/2hd5wg5.jpg

Patrick Street. This was once a VERY prestigious neighbourhood, but it's become a little rundown and there's lots of lower-quality in-fill.

http://i59.tinypic.com/2emldew.jpg

You can see Signal Hill from here too.

http://i61.tinypic.com/2w3waqu.jpg

Some streets are as steep as those of the East End.

http://i57.tinypic.com/25u62r6.jpg

You do see one thing, not often but with some regularity, in the West End that simply doesn't exist in the East End:

http://i62.tinypic.com/e9dt94.jpg

http://i57.tinypic.com/2966vp.jpg

The West End has some odd buildings, like an outdated fire station (all the others in the city have an identical, modern design).

http://i57.tinypic.com/169i9p2.jpg

And all of the commercial areas in the West End are under-used.

http://i58.tinypic.com/29panwl.jpg

There are also a lot of factories. There are a few in the East End too, but there seemed to be more of them in the West End.

http://i58.tinypic.com/23tmc87.jpg

There are also far fewer superettes (our equivalent of the dep - small selection of groceries, a deli, booze, cigs, lottery, whatever).

http://i57.tinypic.com/2iw11zr.jpg

And all of the modern in-fill rowhomes have beautiful front drivelawns.

http://i60.tinypic.com/263vktg.jpg

http://i62.tinypic.com/2j33daf.jpg

These areas are well outside even the weakest heritage protection zones. Anything goes.

http://i59.tinypic.com/rm8vw8.jpg

http://i60.tinypic.com/2nga8u9.jpg

http://i60.tinypic.com/2ih2lvn.jpg

There are also many random pockets of typical suburbia as in-fill.

http://i62.tinypic.com/29432mu.jpg

The process is just beginning for this old property. The existing structure will be refurbished and the extensive estate is being divided up into apartment buildings and townhomes. That's basically the way all of the West End developed.

http://i60.tinypic.com/k9ci9d.jpg

Mind the fences. They, too, can block the sidewalk.

http://i58.tinypic.com/2wdbvo3.jpg

Stop and smell the flowers. Or don't. They're rotting and stink.

http://i61.tinypic.com/ose6gn.jpg

Craigmillar Avenue, the very edge of the old town area. It's all modern after this.

http://i60.tinypic.com/b8qyra.jpg

Luckily, they have escape lanes like the East End. I was able to tuck down through the houses to Old Topsail Road.

http://i60.tinypic.com/2py5ieb.jpg

http://i61.tinypic.com/34in677.jpg

http://i57.tinypic.com/i2u9f8.jpg

And from Old Topsail Road I cut down through the General Protestant Cemetery to Waterford Bridge Road.

http://i58.tinypic.com/2d1mneo.jpg

Never forget who you are or where you come from.

http://i58.tinypic.com/2dqoqe0.jpg

The grand, old estates of Waterford Bridge Road was divided up before WWII, so the new developments down there tend to be of a higher and more beautiful quality than elsewhere in the West End.

http://i57.tinypic.com/17sbvb.jpg

St. John's has an abundance of snails. No idea why. I've found up to 20 on my house.

I saved these four.

http://i62.tinypic.com/1zz0w2f.jpg

http://i60.tinypic.com/sopn36.jpg

I decided to take the Waterford River Trail back to the downtown.

http://i62.tinypic.com/16bkjf8.jpg

http://i57.tinypic.com/29pojnd.jpg

http://i58.tinypic.com/n3p7w1.jpg

And then crossed back at Leslie Street, at the edge of the Downtown West End.

http://i57.tinypic.com/2qth7w0.jpg

Lots of factories in this part of town.

http://i58.tinypic.com/vdmq7l.jpg

http://i57.tinypic.com/3146ufl.jpg

The train station for a city that no longer has trains.

http://i60.tinypic.com/2uh7grd.jpg

http://i60.tinypic.com/149wmcn.jpg

Now as the westernmost tower, Fortis Place makes a beautiful entrance to the Downtown West End.

http://i59.tinypic.com/b3x3zo.jpg

http://i59.tinypic.com/243oly1.jpg

http://i57.tinypic.com/2805tkz.jpg

So much going up in this part of town, which is very car-centric and not really... consciously... part of the downtown in the minds of locals.

http://i62.tinypic.com/1fzo09.jpg

Finally, back to my soul. :D

http://i62.tinypic.com/2ng8mrs.jpg

I stopped at Rocket Bakery for breakfast - an egg and spinach burrito. :D

http://i59.tinypic.com/11tbi86.jpg

http://i59.tinypic.com/j155l0.jpg

http://i58.tinypic.com/15xq1r4.jpg

http://i61.tinypic.com/2i936ro.jpg

http://i58.tinypic.com/2dl3gol.jpg

And that gave me the energy I needed to walk home via McBride's Hill and Long's Hill.

http://i57.tinypic.com/14vkwso.jpg

http://i62.tinypic.com/289ieys.jpg

Hope ye enjoyed the jaunt. :D

So, tonight jeddy1989 and I were among the 700 guests to attend the premiere of season 6, the final season, of Republic of Doyle.

If you haven't seen it, it's a detective dramedy set in St. John's:

lVtwqEXV5bw

It was AMAZING. So many celebrities in attendance, and not just in the television industry but also theatre, music, and more. I felt like a school girl.

During his speech, Premier Paul Davis - as well as several others, including Allan Hawco and representatives of CBC - noted some amazing facts about the show:

- It averages approximately 1 million viewers per episode in Canada.
- The show is now aired in 97 countries. It has had a tremendous impact on international tourism to St. John's.
- It created 1,400 jobs in Newfoundland and Labrador.
- Labour costs alone were 80 million invested in the St. John's region.
- When it first started, 36% of the crew was from away (mostly mainland Canada), and that's been cut down to 4% through training Newfoundlanders and Labradorians.
- Every season, they have one of these premieres before the episode is broadcast, one year it was a month before, and ask people not to share any spoilers. No one does. CBC execs in Toronto couldn't believe it.
- The show is the first in history to receive the blessing of the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary, to use its logo, titles, etc. All other shows set here had to use the fake NLP (Newfoundland and Labrador Police).
- In several countries, the RNC now has significant name recognition and the force is receiving great feedback.

And now, a few pics of the event:

Hawco posing with fans:

With the Premier and First Lady of Newfoundland and Labrador:

http://i60.tinypic.com/dorij6.jpg

Oh, ye St. John's girls...

http://i58.tinypic.com/21nibfa.jpg

http://i61.tinypic.com/2d2syp.jpg

http://i62.tinypic.com/15g44r4.jpg

http://i59.tinypic.com/r8bhht.jpg

We chatted with one girl jeddy1989 was acquainted with.

"Have ya seen on Facebook I'm getting married?

...

Yes, b'y, sure I'm getting married in Cuba the winter.

...

To a Cuban.

...

B'y, I can't wait!"

I want her life. :D

http://i60.tinypic.com/262o7yc.jpg

More than 700 people were invited.

http://i61.tinypic.com/6rkehs.jpg

http://i58.tinypic.com/2m4up77.jpg

http://i61.tinypic.com/ofdpqs.jpg

Hawco signed an edition of our magazine with him on the cover, and posed for a picture with jeddy1989 and I.

http://i59.tinypic.com/zy6gzl.jpg

http://i57.tinypic.com/1zvv0yc.jpg

http://i58.tinypic.com/zthc8o.jpg

And then we got to sit down to watch the premiere episode of the final season, and some great news:

CBC is turning Caught, an award-winning Newfoundland book about a drug dealer, into an eight-part mini-series. Hawco's production company will make it, he's going to star in it. And this is just one of MANY, MANY, MANY projects they have in the works with eOne, which will be aired on CBC.

We're taking over the TV, b'ys, just like we took over the radio. :D

As Premier Davis put it: OH YEAH! :D

October 11, 2014

It's well and truly autumn now. The leaves in the city are changing almost fast enough to watch, and the landscape in the suburbs is back to its familiar red hue - which it will keep until next spring.

You really can see Signal Hill from just about everywhere. It's actually a 9 km drive from that church.

So, today my hike was to the top of Cuckold's Cove, which is in between St. John's and Quidi Vidi, basically across Cuckold's Cove from the backside of Signal Hill. A few scenes from there and the parking garage of 351 Water Street.

I love, love, love autumn. The blueberry shrubs turn red, the moss turns yellow, and with the patches of green that still remain, it's just delicious.

The Quidi Vidi Battery, which is an actual battery and not just a neighbourhood names after one long gone, as in the Battery proper.

Pleasantville (formerly an American base, and massive. It's been divided up and gradually sold off and shut down since Canada took control. The city has a master plan to develop the entire neighbourhood with different styles of housing that achieve the same population density as downtown (up to 6,000 ppl/km2).

A waterfall with some weird... thing... on it. My family's ancestral home in Quidi Vidi, I practically grew up out there visiting relatives, and I have never, ever noticed that waterfall before.

The political pundits here are getting a kick out of Confederation Building still being wrapped in a giant condom.

[MrChills]

Once again brilliant photos.. I have been debating a move home again this summer, and these really don't help me make a decision that is not based on emotions.. This is the first photo I've seen of the JAG hotel and from this angle it looks brutal.. Any others floating around?

[SignalHillHiker]

If ya belong here, ya belong here. We only live once, do you really want to spend it away from the place you love? That's what made the decision easy for me. :)

A few shots of the City of Legends tonight, set to the latest single from my favourite artist alive. So grateful to be living at the same time as both. ;)

The Old East End framed by the east wing of the "new" Newfoundland Hotel. The school on the left is Bishop Field. St. John's still has most of its old downtown schools in operation. One of its hospitals is still open as well. Helps keep the residential neighbourhoods near downtown really lively - not all old folks and hipsters.

A few scenes from this morning's hike. :)

If any of you want to live like fraggles, there's a Battery shack for sale. Only $359,900.

That may seem steep, but it includes avalanches and rock falls.

It was a gorgoeus but chilly day in St. John's. The final day of the tax-free sale at all downtown shops - and Armistice Day/Remembrance Day.

The intersection of Cathedral and Duckworth streets. The two restaurants at right are both quite popular. India Gate, which is obviously Indian food, and Saltwater, which is Newfoundland-Serbian fusion cuisine.

CELEBRITY SIGHTING! :D The incomparable Jonathan Munro. His father (from Montreal; mother local; he was born and raised here) started the threatre company that led to CODCO and just about every contemporary Newfoundland celebrity. He's one of the world's leading theatre actors (and a former classical pianist who played everywhere, even Carnegie Hall), currently based in NYC.

And, chatted with him - didn't get into politics too much but asked what he loves most about NYC. Then asked if there are any similarities. And he said yes, and that's why he chose NYC over Toronto. He said the people are just as friendly, they're Atlantic, and there's the same "enriching quality of life". So, music to my ears, as you can imagine.
