This is one of the best skyline shots of Vancouver I've ever seen. For some reason the large expanse of blue-green glass that I typically expect to see has taken on a warm earth tone in this photo, and the sun is hitting the towers in such a way that the shadows being cast help to clearly differentiate each tower from another rather than creating a nebulous blob of glass.

That was my first impression as well. The buildings are much more defined. Also, I like the look of the clouds.
Please remember to properly credit photos you post, if they are not your own, with an actual link to the website you found the photos, not just the image link.

That might be the ugliest shot of DTTDOT I have ever seen.

That's the West End: the non-glass side of the downtown peninsula, which was redeveloped during the 60s and early 70s, when concrete (sometimes "brutalist") towers were the fashion:

Good to know. Thanks. Now I can say I have a favourite angle of Vancouver's skyline.
