Hamilton from google streetview. Not very nice street level, but an interesting view of the skyline.

Darn it.... I can't figure out how to embed the new version of google maps...

Finally, for once I agree with you. After all those Vancouver and Toronto shots that picture isn't exactly a flattering angle.

It is. Most Edmonton skyline shots are taken from the other side of the valley, this one just has an interesting perspective as it focuses mostly on the brutalist skyscrapers on the eastern side of downtown, with Telus Field in the foreground. I love it

I'm not sure why, but I find Montreal to have the most "changeable" of Canadian skylines. Depending on the photo it can look huge or modest, dense or sparse. I don't know why that is.

That's because it's stretch East-West more than North-South. So dependong on the angle, let's say from the West, it doesn't look that dense because many towers are hidden.
