The new additions to the Calgary skyline are very nice. EAP fills a nice gap in the skyline too.

Love the impact the Bow, EAP, Centennial and Jamieson are having on the Skyline, great shot.

That Vancouver picture is pretty impressive too.

Yeah, this is one area where we definitely have your number.

Is that Epcor on the left of that Edmonton Skyline? pretty good impact there, just need a couple more that size.

downtown Calgary is in a vally and it still looks tall. Edmonton is on a hill and it still looks short.

^ the boy hasn't figured out perspectives yet. Half the problem with photographing Edmonton is that your always looking up from under it, so it's almost impossible to take an encompassing skyline photo from the ground.

You can get pretty good shots from across the valley. Calgary's downtown is laid out great for photography, not so great for flooding.

Given the guy's posting history here, I wouldn't put too much stock in anything he has to say.

Calgary's shadowing policies have probably had a greater impact than Edmonton's airport overlay

I've said it once and I'll say it again...

Whoever suggested that spot for an Airport should of been beaten with their own limbs.
