Cityscape Downtown Montreal by night. K5 + DA* 50-135 mm f/2.8, 13 sec @ f/6.3

**RICHARD L.** · **5 Likes**

In 2012, I walked up Mount Royal with my Pentax K5 + DA* 50-135 mm f/2.8 + Manfrotto tripod after supper and waited for the city to light up. I set up my camera on the tripod and took this long exposure photo of Downtown, 13 seconds @ f/6.3 and ISO 80. The lens was set at 50 mm FL. At the time, I was a great walker and could climb the path to the "Chalet de la Montagne" loaded like a mule without a sweat.

Terrific blue hour city scape Richard! What a vantage point!

Beautiful shot of the city. Super colors. Would make a great framed wall hanger.

Great shot - the colors, the water, the cathedral dome, such detail. Nicely done!

I wonder if this could be printed on metal.

In spite of it being the big city Montreal, it produced a very good shot for you!
As others have said, this is a striking image!

I liked going to Montreal ... for the weekend.
I preferred returning to Quebec City anytime.
