That crane is really something, partially because of how it is located at the edge of the road thus allowing people to get very close to the base and look up.

Do you remember at about what time you took the second and fourth photos? Very cool looking sky in those two shots.

Thanks for the info. I never would have guessed they were taken at 2AM.

Perhaps this question has been asked already but I haven't visited this site for a while. What effect will the Telus Sky lighting show have on the suites in the building if any??? Will they (suites) be experiencing constant secondary flashes at all? The lighting is beautiful!

That's what I thought at first but if you pause the video at about the 32 second mark it appears they do go to the top. I hope they can add more sequences as desired to keep the "show" fresh.
