Actually it was better that way as had the sun been out the scratches on the window would have shown up. Also it was a lousy day and we were the only one in the car which made it easier to shoot.
Those clouds came in from Wisconsin, my buddy in Portage sent them LOL

That thing fell down a few years ago. Tell you Tad, it sure is worth the two bucks it costs to get up on top there.
Been around doing some camera stuff and preparing two YouTubes ..jim

liebgard..where you are standing on that bridge which crosses the Côte de la Montagne (Mountain Hill) in late winter they have a Red Bull Crashed Ice thing and the contestants leave from the Château and skate down to the bottom of the hill. You can see it on You Tube..Google ''Red Bull Crashed Ice'' and select the Québec one..Jim

OooOoOOoOO!!
I LOVE the fabulous perspective in these, Roadrunner! Makes me feel like I'm right there alongside you!
It looks like a place I'd like to see firsthand :)

Love it! Exciting! And I liked seeing the Château lit up in colored lights and the Basilica Notre Dame in the background.

Roadrunner: of your shots of the views from the funicular, I like #3 of the rails down and #5 the best. Is there more snow now?

Beautiful City but too many hills/steps. Loved it there in the old city.
