Haljackey's Pictures

No idea why I didn't start an album until now.

Oh well. I'll get right into it with some pics!

Took a DSLR for a spin the other day. It was a rainy day but I did manage to get 6 good pictures of Highway 401 in London, Ontario.

Highway 401 looking west towards the Highway 402 interchange from Wellington Road.


A rare photograph showing the Highway 401 / Highway 402 interchange. Taken from the Digman Drive overpass, which was under repairs at the time this photo was taken (hence the construction pylons and signs). The overpass doesn't have a sidewalk, so the only time I could take photos without the fear of being hit by cars was during this brief timeframe.


This photograph shows Highway 401 just west of the Highway 402 interchange, where the highway narrows from six to four lanes. T
-Also note the reverse colours of the asphalt. The newer asphalt switches from the inside to the outside while the older asphalt switches from the outside to the inside.


Zoomed in version of the last picture.


Highway 401 in west London. This section of the highway is planned to be widened to six lanes sometime in the future and will include a new interchange with Wonderland Road.


One more shot of Highway 401 west of the 402.

Those are great, but please don't make the same post in two different threads.  Appreciated.

Been forever since I've updated this but I've got more pics to show!

Sweet pics! How did you manage the ones from the air? Taking off from the airport in Toronto perhaps?

Landing actually. Took a dinky plane that flew low to the ground and had a window seat. Snapped plenty of pics on the way.
