Yes on the horizon is Vancouver Island (particularly the higher elevation area to the right) and the Gulf Islands/San Juan Islands. Vancouver Island is normally visible from any shore on the mainland, even without being on top of a mountain.

Here are a couple pics I took from the shore in Richmond a month or so ago:

Great work with the pano, Raggedy. Props to Whalleyboy for the pictures.
Metro Vancouver is getting dense.

That uptown Toronto pic is nice. Cool to see more colour and glass in the mix.

Winnipeg (pre-MB Hydro Tower)



A large amount of downtown Winnipeg's skyline is featured in this shot with the Manitoba Legislative building at front center.
