Québec city at night is an impression of lights on colours on textures on curves and deepening shadows. These lend a rich warmth and mystery to the bitter winter cold of the deserted night streets. Deserted, that is, except for another photographer, lit by the street lamp, equally captivated by the mystery of the shadowy gardens to the side of this street. Je me souviens – I remember – the nights of this beautiful city, Québec.
+Ellie Kennard, belated response. Actually I like only rare bits of science fiction by the very best, e.g., Kim Stanley Robinson, and I have yet to find the fantasy book that I've enjoyed. So I don't even bother, because there's something weird to me about the genre. But thanks for the recommendation.
“…an impression of lights on colours on textures on curves and deepening shadows.” What an exquisite phrase, Ellie. As captivating as the image.
That was such a lovely comment as always, Sandra. Thank you so much for the compliment. I’m glad you liked both the words and the picture!
Thanks a lot, +Ralph Mendoza
Lovely
I forgot to mention you in that comment above, +Lynn David Newton and I wanted you to read the bit about Prue's book as I think you would enjoy it if you like fantasy or sci-fi (not sure which it is). I got it on Amazon, but it's linked there from her page (in case).
Thanks, +Darla Hueske, it's a wonderful city, though we were only there a couple of nights. Well worth a visit.
+phaga tasoon thanks so much!
It really had a special feel about it, +Donna McClure
My goodness me, high praise indeed, for which I thank you +Prue Stopford. (For any who don't know Prue, she is a published author whose book 'Losing Time' I really enjoyed reading.
You really do, +Susanne Stelle although it's a good 10 hours from where we live!
If I'd known, Lynn, I'd have looked him out. It's a city full of history which has not destroyed its beautiful buildings, unlike so many. +Lynn David Newton
One of my best friends lives there and extolls the city's virtues often.
Looks like I have to visit you 🙂 +Ellie Kennard
So beautiful Ellie.. and very poetical. I want to have written that first sentence! Love this 🙂

You were right the first time, +Ursula Klepper – it is my very own guy! Thanks 😊
Very beautiful, I first thought that was Steven, but it's another guy, isn't it?!
How beautiful! 🙂
Wow.. the lights add such beauty, and great you got the other photographer too, beautiful details on the walls!
