A Brief Introduction: Calgary, this is SSP. SSP, this is Calgary. [15 photos]































And before you ask, I'm going to tell you the same thing I told my first girlfriend: "Yes, that was my first time. Please baby, give me another chance. I'm sure I can improve!"

The second shot is exceptionally sharp as well.

Great work for a so called rookie. And I agree with Chris, Elveden is a rare gem for Calgary.

Have a good trip!

well howdy Calgary, always nice to meet a city. You're taller than I thought you'd be, but with a nice mix of personality.

Thanks for the tour Reesonov.

Good stuff Rees. I had the same problem taking a picture of the Cultural Centre ceiling. That last picture you took is particularly attractive to me.

We're getting taller. Lots of projects on the go, Encana's tower will give us a great skyline when it's done.
