The big banks in Canada have done quite well. I know that because I see them everywhere in the United States. This image is from downtown Vancouver, BC. It's another one of the photos that I've reprocessed. Below is the first image from about six years ago. Boy, I miss that Nikon 14-24mm lens. I think the Sony version is next on my list. The distortion of the monochrome image is very close to how it appeared in-camera. In the color image, I corrected the tilt in Photoshop so that it is less warped. I'm not aiming for realism, rather the architecture and the visual elements like reflections. The sense of confusion is what I'm going for here if that makes any sense.
If you've ever had a drink of orange juice, chances are it crossed these tracks. The Tropicana train crosses this river. I live within earshot, so I hear the horn in the morning and at night. It's part of the soundscape of my hometown. The idea of a town having a soundscape is new to me, but if I were blind, I'd know it very well. If you look closely at the patterns on the water, you can see the direction of flow. The eddies caused by the supports are on the downstream side. But as this river flows into the ocean, the direction changes with the tide. As the tide changes, the flow is non-existent. But that's another shot for another day.
