A View from Above

Montreal, Quebec

This is a view of my city, my home, taken from high above. There are a number of lookout points which allow views of the city from many angles. This is just one of those beautiful views.

As a child, as an adolescent, as an adult, I remember visiting any one of these spots, and always having my breath taken away by the expanse and being left with a feeling of awe, of having the city at your fingertips.

Though this is no longer the city where I have a home, it is still my city, and I am so lucky to be able to go back, and visit, and allow my memories to float back and ground me.
