Nice pictures :tup: I like how your pictures bring out the nice green tree cover. Calgary is often thought of as a city witout trees, but the pictures definitely show the green side of the city.

Really great job

[Top Of The Park]

Calgary continues its theme that mid-sized big cities can be special....

[Jimby]

I'm glad you pointed your camera to the west for a shot of Rideau Towers in the last pic. :tup:

[DLLB]

Very good series.

[Wooster]

Very nice! I love the lush Elbow River Valley. Mission is surely one of Calgary's best neighbourhoods.

[Architype]

Great shots of Calgary. It's a little odd to notice modern suburban homes that appear to be so close to downtown. Some of the new condos could double for Vancouver.

[tdawg]

love the greenery.

Since you made a couple references to the "jungles" of Calgary, I must say the Petro Can building sure looks like the king of the jungle in this one.

Yeah, for now :) I'm looking forward to seeing that angle when the Bow is finished.

Great pictures surreal!

Thanks for the thread. I last visited Calgary in 1999, and it has grown impressively vertical since then!

Nice pictures. Calgary looks nice and green.

[peanut gallery]

Nice shots. I never fail to be impressed with Calgary's skyline.

[SteveP]

Nice pictures. That first pano, is really nice, too bad it didn't have the whole downtown in it, but nonetheless very nice.

[Habanero]

Nice shots Surreal!

[dktshb]

An impressive skyline for a city its size. Thanks for the great pictures.

Great city and great shots. Many aspects of Calgary remind me of Denver. I need to visit it!
