OTTAWA WINTER

On my last visit to Ottawa I did not get a chance to go on a little photo tour around town, but one place I always visit is the National Gallery. There were two shows my wife and I were interested in one was an exhibit of the gallery's new acquisitions, which is definitely a show the see. Another was a show of British 19th century photographs. This exhibit was a disappointment for both of us. I think there only a few really great images but overall the pictures were maybe of historical interest but lacked great artistic merit. When having lunch in the cafeteria  I took this picture of a beautiful tree in the gallery grounds. It definitely works best in black and white.

    Interesting approach. Makes one pause and ask: "What's going on here?!". Not a shot to be skimmed over.
