Hotel Frontenac and the City Walls

Hotel Frontenac and the City Walls

Down on the pier one night, I tried to capture the hotel and the old city walls alit. Although the image is poor (hey, it's only a 2.2 MP camera), you can see little red dots in the city walls -- those are lights, showing where the cannons once were, which would have defended from river-borne attacks.
