Great Vancouver shot! Not intended to be a back-handed compliment, but this angle really emphasizes the unique towers that make up the core as opposed to a lot of other angles that feature too many nondescript glass towers.

Lol anyone who takes the seabus can get that magnificent view. It only gets better with some fish + chips from Lonsdale Quay.

A lot of city pride here. All of the photos are fantastic and Halifax, a few pages back, was really punching above its weight.

Not sure if this is the appropriate thread (or if I did this right)

Took this pic with my phone just before landing into Pearson a couple days ago, added some tilt-shift for effect.

Thanks for the kind words guys! Here's another one I took, came out a little blurry though:

As a side-note, I was really surprised at how busy Pearson was. Saw an A380 and a couple 747s, was impressed. Edmonton can't even get a 777 unfortunately, but we'll get there

Ya it's kind of a busy airport. 41 million passengers give or take a year now according to their website.

Lovely. To me, this is much more intriguing than a few non-descript bank towers. Makes me want to linger and explore the streets and alleys. Of course, I have done so many times, including this past summer when we spent a week in QC, Ste. Anne de Beaupre and environs.

The other day when I passed through the P(h)earsonely Expensive Airport, it seemed as though half were standing in line for Tim Horton's, whereas the other half were waiting for "customer service" from Air Canada (where 1 wicket out of 20 was open for business).
