Faces Of Old Saskatoon

The Meewasin Valley Authority has a number of programs all year around and I finally had the chance to do one of their historical walks yesterday.  This one was their “Downtown & Gargoyles” walk.  I knew we had a few old buildings left and that they had some pretty cool architecture, but I never really took the time to look.  I can’t recommend this tour enough though!  Such a great way to learn a little about this little city!  Too bad there aren’t more of these!

Photography wise, I really didn’t know what to expect.  I don’t photograph a lot of buildings and I knew that they can be tricky, but I took a chance and brought a zoom lens specifically because I wanted to capture the gargoyles.  I’ll definitely have to go back on my own since a walking tour with a group of strangers isn’t the best time for art, but I’m quite happy with what I got this time around.  Who would’ve thought that there were so many faces looking down on the city?
