    love this kind of scenes… then I feel myself like Gulliver .. lol :)

  • It was an odd feeling, descending the escalator into this empty social space. The overcast sky lent a poignant atmosphere to the scene. Thank you for the favouring!

    I love the image Robert. I was kicked out of Scotia Place for snapping a few shots. Great job.

  • I shot this on Canada Day (I always try to make it down to “The Works”) and there was NOBODY in Scotia Place. Sorta unsettling.

    Very interesting graphic design. I like how there is that one rectangular table in there in amongst all the curves and circles. Congratulations on your features!

  • Many thanks, Anne! This is still one of my personal faves!
