Brick & Stucco

The wall between the last two postings is itself quite interesting.  The image is composed almost entirely of rectangles.  Hardly a curve in sight.

Different processing “tricks” have been used for each of the three shots of the old Belmont Hotel building.  The colour enhancement necessary to give some life to the “out of camera” photos was achieved in three slightly different ways.  It’s fun to experiment.  (Thanks to Silverpixel for an idea that I modified a bit to give the colour enhancement for this image.)

Oak Street

For many years in North Bay, the term “Oak Street” carried with it the ideas of “run-down” and “seedy”.

Not any more!

Rebuilding the roadway and sidewalks and subsequent refurbishment of the buildings by the owners has seen a rebirth of the area.

Like the Phoenix rising from the ashes.  Oak Street is Back!

Gateway to Opportunity

Sign on the border between Callander and North Bay:

54,001 has such a nice ring to it!

Wave Walk

The pavement past the tunnel connecting the North Bay Waterfront with Discovery North Bay  and the Downtown Area has a uniquely Lake Nipissing shoreline look.

I am reminded of waves breaking on a beach and ripples in the sand that invariably form.

Are you?

Another Stylish Store Front

Just down Main Street from Pearls is “Farm”.

Nice clean design.

Pearls

North Bay’s Main Street has developed a little section of elegant, neatly designed storefronts.

“Pearls” is one.

The colours in the designs are incorporated upward to the second stories of the old buildings as well.
