The following photos are my own, which I took with my cellphone in downtown Montreal at night on November 21st. Again, I am new at taking night photos, so I guess with time my photos will improve. You can click on any image to see a larger view.
I took this one across the street from my target, which were two lovely deer sculptures, nicely lit up!

I found this what I think is a squirrel sculpture, outside of a church building, nicely lit up. (again, downtown Montreal)


The following video is a Just for Laughs Gag (Juste pour Rire) done here in Montreal! Enjoy!  :)

  8. Lovely photos of the sculptures all lit up.

    "I'm starting to learn that I don't have to react to everything that bothers me. Sometimes I just need to breathe, let it go and protect my peace." I am getting better each year at doing just this, still find myself reacting once in awhile though.

    God bless.

  9. Olá, Linda, gostei muito desta magnífica postagem, com tantos
    ensinamentos filosóficos, que nos ajudam nessa caminhada.
    As imagens são igualmente excelentes.
    Também gostei da reportagem da ABC News no qual o gato salva
    a criança que foi um pouco atacada.
    Uma ótima semana pra você.
