Really, we’re more like a large town (or small city) with a love for all that is suburban. What I really wanted to do was work the film’s name into the title somewhere: Lomochrome Metropolis. As an on-this-day gallery, I mostly remember spending June 2022 excited for our upcoming trip to Montréal. I had just…

After risking a permanent lobstering the day before, we decided that the next day would possibly feature a little more indoor time. We began the day with some breakfast at the outlet of a small regional chain on Bay Street where, while the breakfast was pretty good, we had the misfortune of the adjacent booth…

Once Kathleen and I were finished with our visit at the Art Gallery of Ontario, we decided to continue on our way to Kensington Market. Where we began to roast in earnest. It was hot. Kensington does not have shade. I knew this. I didn’t really think. This meant that our little visit to the…

Our meal with friends that evening was to be hot pot at a restaurant near our hotel. It was a lovely meal and we have a wonderful time catching up! Tummies filled, we said our goodbyes and it was back to the hotel room for a good night’s sleep. Our train back to Ottawa would…

After our quieter morning in Old Montréal, we decided to make our way up a (little) more lively Saint-Denis to see the shops, sights, and maybe even snacks. We made it as far as Mont-Royal before we decided to take the metro back down to our hotel so that we could rest up for dinner…

Photos from my second roll of our walk through Vieux Montréal on a very quiet morning. Even among the “visibly tourist”, we were virtually alone! Reviewing these two rolls (and remembering those from a subsequent visit using a 28mm lens), I am thinking that the next time we’re around this neighbourhood, I should bring a…

Such that it was, the big event was now over and we gave ourselves one more day in the city to explore, make photos, and meet up with some friends for dinner. In the morning, our little adventure was (mostly) through Old Montréal. I remember it being dead all over while we were out on…

Such a grand title for such a little thing. But also a big thing. Our appointment at the piercing studio was for the middle of the afternoon on the 21st, so we had plenty of time in the morning to have a little adventure walk. Gone was the sunny skies of our arrival, replaced by…

After getting out for a little walk and our lunch, we returned to our hotel room for a little break and to decide where we would go for dinner. Since it was close enough to St-Denis, we had quite a lot of choice before us. The meal was fine, but we were really just happy…

Kathleen and I don’t spend enough time in Montréal. Yes, Toronto will always have my heart, but Montréal is arguably Canada’s only actual city. At least, it’s the only one that carries itself as if it’s comfortable with the designation and it very much shows. The second-last time Kathleen and I visited was for three…
