Toronto is nice.

I especially love those shots looking down the road or the railway tracks.

It is gloomy and grainy looking but I still thought this picture was interesting:

^ That black and white building in the immediate foreground looks very complex and interesting. It looks like it meets the street nicely too.

So much violence from a building with a thousand Montreal seniors living in tight quarters. Atco has never looked better. It has a nice patina.

^there is a lot more heft from that angle than their was during my most recent Montreal years (late nineties-mid 00s).

I love Vancouver's skyline. It's the complete opposite of Montreal's. Which I also love.

I love Vancouver this time of the year with all of the fog/rain/low cloud; used to love putting on some tunes and cruising to Richmond or to the Northshore.

While I'm sure people don't appreciate fan fiction being part of the skyline picture page, this guy is pretty talented. Curious if he was hired to do concept art for the Last of Us TV show being filmed here.

Maybe these should go in the future canadian skyline thread?

Are they filming Last of Us in Edmonton too? The massive sets and stages I've seen in Ramsay in Calgary have been pretty impressive. They've shot some of it DT and in the Beltline I believe.

As for the photoshops those are great! I particularly like the Snowmaggedon one. Also funny to imagine post apocalyptic West-Ed. Are the AT-AT's part of our future Provincial police force?
