Back from the Old City

[pphaneuf]

Had a good, relaxing time in Québec City. Slept a good deal, even foregoing a planned pub crawl on saturday evening to sleep a solid 11 hours instead! Went to two museums to see the "Claudel and Rodin", "God, the Tsar and the Revolution" and other exhibits, was pretty interesting! Took a good number of photos too, had been a while I hadn't done street photography, and I find that I'm still quite shy. Getting a frame-filling photo of a stranger with a mild wide angle lens is a bit daunting! And there was much tourists, not many people that I found interesting.

Still, got some nice shots of the Old City.



I'll post some more later...

I had so much fun walking around the Old City last time I went (about 9 years ago).
I really need to get back there!

If you can buzz off the bloody tourists crawling everywhere, it's like being in Europe...

Thanks! That's with my Canon EOS-20D and the el-cheapo 50mm/f1.8 lens.
