Pulp Mill Ruins, Chicoutimi, Quebec (imgs)

Just to share some of my trip photos the past two weeks, I wanted to kick off with something a little unusual compared to the 'usual' cruise photos.

La Pulperie, a late-19th Century pulp mill that was once the primary industry of the region, was abandoned and ultimately destroyed by the epic floods of 1996. ; A great mix of ruins and granite canyon and river and fall color, it is a wonderful scenic spot for photography:















(photos taken with Sony A580 & Sony 18-250mm lens).

 

Nice color and detail in those shots Justin. ; Here, trees are either green or dead. ; Fall didn't happen.

 

Thanks. ; Green or dead - that's still a step up from our trees, Rog...ours are either green or...green. ; Oh, and sometimes...dull green.

 

Justin these are great! ; I do miss the change of color and the cooler temps, BUT I would not trade any of my green trees for any of it.

 

justin, those are fantastic. ; i love the 2nd one up from the bottom. ; we really need to tour canada sometime soon. ; such beautiful countryside.

 

Thanks guys. ; Gorgeous country up there - it could be a bit of 'grass is greener', since I've spent the better part of 25 years looking at Florida scenery, that this stuff looks more exotic and interesting to me! ; You guys come down here to see the sun and green and tropical beaches and palm trees...which put me to sleep thinking about! ;
