Some awesome shots of the city by Wroclaw, while he was visiting from Poland.

Took a walk on South St. Mary's Island and Whitefish Island and was surprised by how much water there was.
Not even the Beaver dam could hold back all the water.


Our path appears to be flooded.


Last year this building was on dry gorund and now there is over a foot of water under it.


What was once dry ground is now a raging river.


Hydro dam in Sault Michigan powers the Sault Canal and the eastern half of the Upper Peninsula.


Niagara River has the Niagara Falls and the St. Mary's River has the St. Mary's Rapids.


These trees look a little wet.


The water from the rapids is spilling onto the island.


Our trail is now a river.


Some pictures of the rapids. There is a concrete barrier that divides the rapids from the islands but the water is so high that it's just flowing over it.
Usually you can see lots of rocks in the rapids because it's not very deep but this year only a few large rocks can be seen.








Pictures by me.

Few photos I took with my secondary camera on Sunday. A less stellar shot of Downtown from Lions Gate Bridge featuring MNP Tower and Trump Tower.


Metrotown bathing in sunshine on a cloudy evening.


North Vancouver


I took the Seabus across the Burrard Inlet for the very first time and enjoyed the spectacular view of the North Shore Mountains behind me.

Great Vancouver pics Klazu; Burnaby is starting to look like the skyline of somewhere else, larger.

^ It's amazing that the username "Canada1" wasn't already taken, good one (nice pics of ? too).

It's too bad North Vancouver got hit with the BUS (Building Ugly Stick). I know a lot of that is due to the age of many of the residential buildings.

what's the best way to share photos from Flickr (not mine). I'm not too familiar with Flickr but it seems that essentially every picture I come across on there says that sharing has been disabled.. how do you guys get the actual photo URL?

CBC Newfoundland's Facebook page posted a pretty cool time-lapsed image of Harbour Drive in St. John's, looking westward.
