Fascinating photograph.
Among so many things in this image, I like the dark line of trees at the bottom. I guess this could be taken from the top of Mont Royal in Montreal, but I don't recognize this place.

High marks.

I like it but would like a bit more zing in the form of saturation. Great shot though.

This is interesting. I'm guessing it's an old shot? That looks like an ice rink and a holiday tree? Nice city.

I'm not crazy about the muted colors in this photo and the trees at the bottom, but it's an interesting spot and great vantage point.

Thanks to all four for comments so far

No, it's not an old shot, Ana. At least not more than 2-3 years old. But you were right about the tree. The shot was taken on a rather cold day in December with heavy frost mist hanging over the city -- hence the oldish look, the lacking zing, the muted colors. Not cold enough to allow skating on the artificial lake, though.

by 'old' I meant, not taken for the theme. : )

A port city somewhere.
Feels like I should recognize this place.
