Critique Welcomed Downtown Calgary

[Keith Hedges]

These 2 shots are of the Peace Bridge (which crosses the Bow River to downtown Calgary) taken on Monday. We've had almost 2 weeks of minus 20 to 30 C weather (minus 35 with wind chill) and a crud load of snow. Tuesday was only minus 15 C so I ventured outside for a few a shots.

Nice postcard like shots Keith. It is as cold as it looks.

 

[Dave Green]

I like those! Lovely light!

 

[Lesley Jones]

Wow to both of those. The light is amazing and the colours are just beautiful

 

[Beth Carter]

really like the comp. on the first. the bright red bridge really pops out against the snow and gloom.

 

[Pete Askew]

Super stuff Keith. I especially like the first for the composition and I like overall the illustration-like quality of the images.

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Agree - very good postcard feel to #2

#1 is wonderful, with the red popping against the snow - I do see a 16:9 crop though, with the riverbank intersecting the bottom left corner of the crop - what do you think?

Man, you were brave to go out in those conditions - looks FREEZING!

 

[Nathan Wright]

Really really want to go. Watching the floods this summer showed me how green the city really is. Really I miss Canada.
