Well, I don’t need to look at the calendar to know that December and winter have arrived in Ottawa. We’ve already had several snowfalls this year. Including this one that I photographed yesterday on Petrie Island, near my home. The immediate forecast is for more snow and the long term forecast is for a colder than normal winter. This year for Christmas, Val and I will be travelling to New York City. I’ve always wanted to see the Christmas tree at Rockefeller Plaza, the window displays along 5th Ave and Macy’s and of course a visit to B&H Photo.
