Decent shot, though it would clearly benefit from a Chad on a jetpack hovering right in the middle of the image

(Joking aside, I'm going to side with Chadillaccc on this one, I see no issue at all with what he's posting. I also see he's still ignoring me for some reason, oh well.)

...but its still to our thing what the wedding cake blocks are to things over here.

It’s kinda crazy that we Montrealers need to see shots like these to remind us of the sheer urbanity of our own city.

I live in an area with similar built and it just always seems like a given that we have this density, when it’s quite rare in north american cities.

Interesting building in the left of that first Winnipeg pic.

Acajack · #**15739** Posted **Dec 17, 2020, 2:02 PM**

Is it me or has the quality of photos increased a lot on here lately? Many of them these days are truly artistically beautiful.

MolsonExport · #**15740** Posted **Dec 17, 2020, 2:50 PM**

^i agree. or maybe (also) there are just more better quality photos to curate. I love the different angles and perspectives. Way more interesting than the generic postcard skyline shots that used to dominate this page (seemingly the same photo, recycled every 2 weeks)
