^They look a bit like power lines to me, but maybe they're stairs.

Thanks for the tip Yume-sama. Unfortunately I don't have Photoshop. I wish I did, but it's a bit pricey isn't it? One day...

I don't know the exact location but it's definitely east of the grain elevators. Over by the cemetery or cap college. Maybe just above park and tilford, depending on the zoom

i try and credit as much as possible but often it's hard to credit each and every photographer out there simply because i save them on my desktop and host the pictures myself later.

not sure the way around that. i like sharing pics but damn, i do have a life.
No you didn't claim them as yours, I never meant to imply you did. No worries!

Gotcha. And wouldn't you know, I was just talking to a friend and it turns out I might just be getting a free copy from them soon.

Ahhhh.... the palm trees, the water, the beaches and the sunny day remind me so much of Hawaii. If there is less rainfall and more sunshine in Vancouver, this place would be paradise!

Thanks for sharing, Delirium.

Microsoft's Photosynth of Cambie Bridge

Found a pretty interesting view of Vancouver False Creek taken on the Cambie Bridge

You will need to install a plugin to view but it's well worth it.

There's a guy working on the barge parked on the south shore. If you zoom in you can make out the name of the company he works for... pretty cool.
This guy obviously took some high def pictures with a powerful zoom. Try zooming in on ScienceWorld, or Maynards building.

Photosynth is a software that automatically stitches your photos together. If you take alot of overlapping photos of a particular scene it will create a virtual 3D representation of it capable for panning, zooming and tilting views.

I can see alot of potential for Photosynth in the RE industry.

"We're sorry, but Photosynth currently doesn't run on your operating system. Please see our system requirements listed to the right."

Fuckin' Microsoft ...
