Folk on the Rocks

These panoramas are from the Yellowknife Folk on the Rocks (FOTR) music festival, July 17th 2011.

Some people in the crowd might look a bit ‘ghosty’….it is because they moved while I was taking the pictures. Next time I’ll ask everyone to ‘Freeze’ while I take the photos ;>

Old Town Yellowknife

During a lunch break during a beautiful sunny day, I grabbed my camera and panorama pole and ran up MacEvoy Rock in Yellowknife’s Old Town. The view from the top of the hill includes downtown Yellowknife, and great views of both Yellowknife Bay (center part of panorama), and Back Bay.

Downtown Yellowknife: Corner of Franklin (50th Ave) and 48th Street

Early morning downtown Yellowknife on June 22, 2011. I am standing in the middle of Franklin Avenue. I would not recommend doing this during normal hours. At 5:00 am in the morning there were fortunately not too many cars.

The orange building is YK Centre, blue building is Northern Images (art gallery), and the white office tower is the Laing building.

Downtown Yellowknife

This panorama is downtown Yellowknife, on December 15th 2010. The “New Gallery” building is under construction, and is covered with tarps. Notice the two near identical buildings on ether side of the Gallery building. On one side is the Precambrian building (blue facade) with the Royal Bank and Capitol Theatre, and on the other side, the Scotia building. The building with lots of windows and rounded sides is the Greenstone building.

This is a 360 degree view of downtown Yellowknife. Click on the image for a larger view, and click on the image to zoom-in.
