Byward Market

We drove down to the market again this morning and also visited Rideau Mall while in the area. It is always interesting strolling around the oldest part of Ottawa. Today, we also visited Notre Dame Cathedral. The inside of the cathedral is absolutely stunning. I took a few photographs in very low light without a tripod, so I was happy with the way they turned out. Hope my readers agree.
The second photo is a close up of one of the pew marker numbers with the centre aisle floor thrown out of focus because of the shallow depth of field. Afterwards, we noticed the number of the pew I had chosen to photograph was 108. Quite by coincidence, my birthday is Oct 8th.... Hmmm.....maybe I should go buy a lottery ticket as well.

The last picture was taken from the top level of Rideau Mall, looking down onto a restaurant on the main floor. I thought the colour, shapes and lines were quite interesting.
