When I saw this, I couldn't help but think - humans are innately masochistic. Who the hell would do this to themselves?? And then I ended up climbed on. (But at least I'm not as crazy as those guys in their sneakers running up and down the stairs/the Mountain.)
I think whenever I'm halfway up SOMETHING e.g. a flight of stairs leading to a supposed fantastic view from the top of a building/monument e.g. Arc de Triomphe in Paris/ Eiffel Tower) I always question my intentions angrily, all the while gasping for air with aching thighs. But then the minute I reach the peak and receive the view that spreads on out to the horizon in its infinite beauty... there's no doubt that it was all worth it.

I miss miss miss Montreal so much! Especially now that the weather in SG has just gotten excruciatingly oven-like. -_-;; And to think that when I was there I sort of craved the state of not feeling cold immediately after leaving the bathroom after a hot shower. All these little things that we either love/hate depending on the circumstances.
LOVE LOVE LOVE the shots of the city lights. Lights are actually my favorite subject in photos but I can never get to capture it quite as well. But you've done an uber job of getting it right. SO PRETTY!!!! Montreal looks damn cold though.
ReplyDeleteSometimes it's better that trips or experiences come to an end because you'll realize if you dragged it out, you probably wouldn't have remembered it the same.
Aww thanks! :) Wish I could've gone up a second time when the weather was good to get more photos... but it didn't quite work out cos of terrible weather! ><
DeleteHaha if it's a good trip, I'd so want it to drag on as long as possible... SIGH.
That looks utterly beautiful :) Love your red scarf! <3
