Spring.. Tulips and Ottawa....

(all shots in this post are candid.. just cropped some.. )

There is always light at the end of a tunnel...... co-relate this to a warm sunny spring day complimented by blossoming aromatic tulips and greens after a seemingly never ending COLD and COLOURLESS winter!!!!!!!!

Tulips around Ottawa city

my muse for the day ;)..

twins

still as fresh as the tulips

==================

The parliament building

DUSK- by the river .. a Spring evening

Colours of Spring..

A beaver observes the sun go down.. (finally spotted one)

a long road haunted by a few cyclists and people with cameras in their hands..
(my experiments with black and white)

The only inhabitats on the bridge..

Formula one track.. absolutely deserted.. just imagining what it would be like during the race.. engines roaring louder than ppl.. but for now.. its just the virgin sounds of nature.

An impressive downtown skyline by the St Lawrence river

AND NOW THATS THE SUNSET ... observe the colours worn by the sky as the sun settles down in its kin.

It's like a fire in the sky and the smoke's forming clouds above

Finally the sun and fire have settled giving shades of pink to the sky

Pont (Bridge) Jacques Cartier basks in the glory of sunset..
(in the background is the olympic tower)

AND NOW.. its time for the lights to come up.
