In the foreground, on the right, the ramparts of Old Quebec. From this height, you can access the Porte St-Jean which is certainly more difficult to access in winter, but which offers a perfect viewpoint to photograph Place d’Youville. You can see the very popular skating rink. A section of the German village is located this year at the end of the rink, waiting for the work near Quebec City Hall to be completed.
The photo above includes several photos juxtaposed on top of each other to provide an HDR effect. The darker areas of the photo are better exposed, while the brighter lights are dimmed to provide a more balanced photo. As always, there is life in Old Quebec!
