Ottawa, Ontario, Canada - Day 3 - Carisse Studio Cafe

These are the last batch of the flood of pictures of Ottawa.

these are pictures of a quite little coffee shop outside the US consulate owned and operated by Patricia Penzin-Carisse (Pat). She houses all her husband's work on the walls of this coffee shop. The phenomenal pictures of all these important people add generous character to this coffee shop. Some of the best black and white pictures I have seen till date are on these walls. Her husband is Jean-Marc Carisse [website link]

Ottawa, Ontario, Canada - Day 2 - The People

A city is only as beautiful as the people living in it. Here are some people of Ottawa, giving this beautiful city some motion, life and colour. The simple attitude of the people make Ottawa a really chilled out place. Very laid back.

Here is a song to go with the pictures. Kinda heavy, so mind those ear drums...

Ottawa, Ontario, Canada - Day 1

I am visiting Ottawa ON for some work near downtown. These are pictures taken along Ridieu (street in downtown Ottawa) in the evening. The overcast skies provided excellent light conditions for some nice photographs of all these rustic old brick buildings that dot the entire downtown.









This is probably the crappiest hotel I have stayed in this side of the Atlantic. The wireless does not let me upload more than two 640 X 480 photographs simultaneously to my web space. All I am saying is that Shek is being very patient to share these pictures with you. Please enjoy.
