Drama in the sky and reflecting in the water. They look like rice dryers but surely aren't. Good composition and an interesting view. Well done Ruby.

I like the softness of the colors and the moody lighting. The sky is wonderful. There's so much to see. Great photo Ruby.

Well, I've been to Montreal, but I can't say as I've ever seen anything quite like this interesting vista, but I don't suppose I would have, unless I had gotten out of the car and walked around!!!! I'm always too intent on trying to find my way out of the city..lol...that's a lot of traffic for a country girl :) I like the angle from which you chose to take this pic, and for an urban setting, it creates a lot of entertaining details to view. Perhaps the shades of grey blue that predominate overall help create the illusion of a painting in my mind. And the one element that brings me back to reality is that strip of green in the horizon of the presentment that breaks up the fantasy-like quality of the scene and brings me back to touch the ground :) It contains a most soothing and serene feel, one that I'm not used to taken from a picture of steel and concrete. :)PJ

A great driveby shooting, Ruby. I love to do this because you never know what you can capture in a brief moment passing by. This came out so well and the clouds are great and so are their reflections. Interesting landscape.

The silver and grays in this are very pleasing to look at. I'm assuming the train was in motion ... which makes this quite a capture. The clarity is far better than I would have expected. The light poles in the distance are very sharp and the sign above the building (right) very clear. Good job Ruby.

Interesting. This is a nice shot, and the idea that it was taken from a moving train is impressive! I do wonder what was done to it after the fact, if any mod was done. It looks a little too bright to me, but then again - thats just me!

Nicely done, and thanks for sharing!

I like the sort of color the overcast sky makes the picture. It makes it look cold, kind of makes that area you're taking a picture of look isolated from the world, like its been deserted. I like it
