I wanted to make a picture that reflected the gloomy atmosphere. I stumbled on this cross located on a hill, Van Vliet Street in Lacolle, almost to the intersection of 1\u00e8re rue and 16th Avenue. I had caught a glimpse while driving by. Those who are familiar with the area, know that this is a narrow street without much shoulder, so not really easy to park the car.<\/p>\n<p>So I parked my car a little further on the 1\u00e8re rue and I walked back. Camera on shoulder, tripod in hand, on a Wednesday night around 21:00, no problems it&#8217;s going to be quiet&#8230; Mistake: my camera tripod combination served as a magnet for traffic! I had to somehow try to keep myself on the thin edge of the street, it plunged about 45 centimeters after the end of the pavement; I wanted to keep the elevated view I had on the edge of the road. It was the dance of &#8220;snap photo-car arrives-move over and start again! At least I got the image I wanted.<\/p>\n<p>Small detail: the cross is actually an old rope clothesline pole!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>That night at the beginning of June, the weather was a mixt of cloud and rain.
