hehe I was thinking that too, at first I thought to myself, "wow! That's an amazing angle of Saskatoon!", then I noticed the sattle dome in the foreground

Must have been a copy+paste error

Oh that was not a mistake, I had some skyline shots of Calgary so I thought I would mix them with some Saskatoon photos...hence the piggy backin' title...psychological

Here's a few angles of Ottawa's skyline I've taken over the past couple o' years.

It should look a lot better in a few years.

you get a nice cluster view of surrey from coquitlam - looks quite good - will one day try to remember to take a pic

someone should post up new westminster's skyline and burnaby's

Night Shot of Saskabush. Credit - Me. A few more talls and we are getting somewhere..

Saskatoon, Regina, and Halifax punch way above their weight for skylines (as of course does Calgary).

Saskatoon has some decent heft for its size, but for the most quality is lacking.

One of the better shots I've seen.

Calgarian · #98 Posted **Apr 3, 2008, 2:16 AM**

That's the best Winnipeg shot I think I've seen.

Ayreonaut · #99 Posted **Apr 3, 2008, 2:28 AM**

Without a doubt the best I've seen (as far as skyline shots go anyway).

Here's another shot of Kitchener-Waterloo. Definitely still underperforming, but there's hope for the future: you can see 2 cranes downtown, and there's another construction site Uptown (15-storey Bauer Lofts) which is hidden by the Sunlife Tower. Also, there are proposals for 13 buildings in this area.
