Those pics are totally zoomed in. You must have a telephoto lens for that kind of thing.

Yeah, definitely loving the range! It's a good range for walking around and grabbing random shots. I was surprised at how clear the pictures were at full zoom.

270mm! Damn! I've kind of been going in the other direction... just using my 35mm or 50mm primes most of the time. You've definitely put it to some interesting use. It's a cool perspective on architecture photography you don't see that often. Normally people go for the ultra-wide 10 or 12mm shots instead of getting up close.

A pic this morning from the 5 minutes I had to play with my new Canon 7D Mark II before I had to get down to work:

^ Congrats on the new camera. I love the golden light on the Victoria Park skyline which didn't exist a few years ago.

The lower level? I think the upper is the fitness centre. Be quite the patio if it was.

iirc, The 3rd floor is the fitness centre, I used to water plants in there, and last I saw the +15 level was unoccupied but covered up for some reason.

I assume the lower level, they have all that space ready for a patio. Would have to be a good restaurant though, it's kind of out of sight.

The fitness centre recently emerged from behind the papered windows
