Awesome, that is my favourite angle of Vancouver's skyline because of the layers.

It is a great angle. It also seems less plateau-like than most views of Vancouver.

I was helping a friend move a things out from his apartment near Mooney's Bay today, so I thought his view of downtown Ottawa may make for some good pics..Problem is I have a lousy point and shoot, so excuse the quality.

Cannot take credit for the pics, but I figure some better shots were warranted









These me and the Wife had taken over the long weekend on the River Rouge Cruise ship.

Didn't realize it, but L Tower will likely dominate some skyline shots from the East in Toronto.





The old buildings in the foreground are St. Lawerence Market. - An old farmers market in Toronto.
