Lovely shots Don. Like Christian, I like the last two... although the first one has very striking colour. Well done!

Hey when did you retire Don? Do you still ride the bus for old times sake? I agree with Christian those last two are winners. Oh and what are those snowmen like sculptures in the first shot?

Thanks all. This is my second week of retirement. My 65th birthday is Thursday. All my transportation is the bus. I want to take bus trips at least a day or two per week to tour the city and take photos. When it warms up here, it will be easy for me to take my wife with me (she's in a wheel chair).

Great shots, Don! My personal favourite is the Red River picture. I love it when the lines lead me to a far horizon.

i especially like "The Girders". lovely colours and composition. the tilt really adds some zing to the shot.
It's amazing what old junk can do.

I know it is late but... Happy birthday! Your pictures are great, I agree with the comments, my favorite is # 2 because of the lined street lamps.
