First off I want to say Thank you to the owners of Catwalk Salon for letting me on their roof. If they didn't say yes, tell me to climb at my own risk I would not be able to get the shots I needed to get this image completed.
This image was still a tough one to compose as I was still about 30 feet below and about 40 feet at a different angle from the original shot. It's too bad the Sherlock Building is long gone as this was the spot I needed to be, however, the Catwalk Salon was just as good and got me high enough to use my PS skills. The image still needed to be tweaked and skewed to get it at the right angle.
I like this image cause it speaks volumes for how the urban landscape has changed. The iconic Canada Post Officer Building is about the only building still standing. The old church has been replaced by the Telus building and the buildings along 7th Street have encompassed the whole block. It was nice to see a building in the old photo using the space where the Atrium Building has stood for all these years. Its a shame this old building was torn down to be replaced by 4 levels of concrete which has not given back to Lethbridge's economy.
More images to come.
