It's sad. I'm so tired of rich, retired baby boomers and their nauseating sense of entitlement. Just because they paid an arm and a leg for their condos they think they can call the shots. These people have way too much time on their hands. If they had lives they wouldn't have time to focus on something so trivial. "We have to look at that thing every day" they cry. Yeah? Well I have to look at the junkies in my back alley every day but that's city living for ya. Suck it up you whiners. This city's priorities are so fucked up.

Oh yeah... great pics by the way!

^^ Thanks! Those intial building are rising pretty fast.
Btw, you know Photoshop has a photomerge option under File->automate (or similar)...it does an outstanding job of blending pictures even with different exposure levels or white balance.

^Wow, great flower shots.

Here's a few I took from Stanley Park, Apr 13.

^They should fix up that building on the left, it sort of spoils the view.
