The Ottawa Locks
A couple of months ago, I took pictures of the Locks At Dusk. The water was unusually quiet, offering great reflections.
Last week-end, Gail came to Ottawa and we both took tons of pictures on Parliament Hill and at the locks. This time, we arrived in the middle of the actions: a bunch of boats were crossing from the Rideau Canal to the Ottawa River.
