For the past several weeks we've been seeing an amazing amount of photos from the west as you've been enjoying the non-winter weather. I suspect over the next few weeks as we warm up on the east there will be more of an even mix of pictures representing the entire nation. Until then thanks for all the great posts you guys.

A couple of very large Edmonton skyline panos. Saw a coyote wandering around this hill where I was shooting, too bad I didn't have a longer lens on me to get a good shot of him.

Triple, you don't see the south bank from the University of Alberta east or ten twenty blocks.

I'm pretty certain that many dozens of pictures of eastern cities have been posted of eastern cities during the winter, photos of them fully green and beautiful. Many photos that are posted on this forum weren't taken the day they are posted. Eastern cities look beautiful in winter too, I take/post pictures of Calgary and Edmonton throughout the year. Soon some Vancouver shots as well

Here are some pics I took recently of Vancouver. The first two are looking south from the city of North Vancouver. The third one is downtown looking west from the pedestrian bridge over Cordova Street near Waterfront Station.

I've been meaning to post these for months but kept forgetting to bring my camera to work. I just wish I had a better zoom lens.

This is my view from the office, not bad eh?





U/C projects visible: Chaz, One Bloor, U Condos and probably other ones I'm leaving out.

Edmonton might have one of the longest skylines in the country, always surprises me how far it stretches.

Other than for 1, 5 block area, it goes from 124st to the west to 82st to the east on the north bank.
