Monday’s top ten photos of… Quebec City

Here is the first of what will (hopefully) be a weekly feature where I showcase my top ten photos of a particular theme. Let’s start with what I photographed the most: my home town of Quebec City.


Quebec City’s skyline, seen from the lower part of the town, at sunset July 22, 2010.


Sun rise over the Bassin-Louise Marina, the Chateau Frontenac and the old-Quebec in Quebec City July 6, 2009.


Sun rises over old cannons overlooking the St-Lawrence river in Montmorency park in Quebec city March 23, 2009.


The first rays of light hit the hotel Chateau Frontenac, seen from the Montmorency park, March 22, 2009. Designed by architect Bruce Price, The Chateau Frontenac grand hotel is one of the most popular attractions in Quebec City.


The first rays of light hit the city wall surrounding the Montmorency park in Quebec city March 23, 2009. Ramparts of Quebec City are the only remaining fortified city walls in the Americas, north of Mexico.

The Pont de Quebec (Quebec bridge) in Quebec City disappears into the morning fog. The Pont de Quebec is the longest Cantilever bridge in the world.

  2. Très belle série! J’aimerais savoir si possible comment tu as fait pour la dernière? Elle est « écoeurante ».

  3. Dans le temps, j’avais un autre emplois que la photo et je passais là tous les matins et tous les soirs, pendant 2-3 ans. Une seule fois j’ai vue le phénomène: Une brume légère sur les rives mais extrèmement épaisse au centre du fleuve. ëtre au bon endroit au bon moment…. et la caméra pas trop loin!
