i was at a dinner party on the 39th floor of one wall and the entire city was cast in red with streaks of lightning and dark clouds in the horizon. crazy! we rarely get a lightning storm so it was a hell of a treat.

Why thank you for the kind words. The camera is nothing fancy, a 45-year old Canon 35mm that belonged to my grandfather. I was surprised I could take it out of the closet and use it immediately considering the amount of time it had spent in there, though (20 years or so.)

And to echo the comments of others, the Vancouver pictures posted on the last couple of pages are some of the best I've ever seen of the city! Great photography/excellent finds!

indeed it is a common angle but
1 u don't see the osborn village towers in it to often
2 the steam clouds match up on the fort grry hotel with my shot
3 the lighting and haze match on the towers in osborn village
4 even though they lop the tower cranes out the hydro building is the same in that shot as it is in my shot
5 the shadows are the same

also ontop of cuting it out and croping they added some warmth to the white balance of the image witch is 8 images stiched together btw...

Comparing them together like this and I agree, the spacing between the buildings is 100% dead on, as are the lighting and shadows; these are things that would be difficult to match up by accident.

Hope you get fair compensation for this. I'm still fighting with AOL Money Canada for using one of my photos without permission. Stupid companies that don't understand copyright and licensing. Grr.
