Edmonton: Downtown & Beyond
 

This is my first post on SSP. I've lived in Edmonton for six years now and I'd like to share some photos I've taken over the past couple of weeks. Enjoy!

Excellent diversity of shots. I love this city.

Wonderful photos!

I particularly like the shot of the LRT bridge at night crossing into what appears to be, nothing

Great photos! Edmonton really comes alive in the summer months.

Well done!

Looks like a busy summer in the city. I like the old neon signage and the gorgeous golden tan of your Parliament building.

Nice!

Great shots. I'd love to make it up to both big Alberta cities one of these days!

Excellent set of photos there! Thanks for sharing, welcome to the community and I hope you contribute more!

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome.

Brilliant! Welcome! Always nice to see more fellow Edmontonians on here...:cheers:

Very nice pictures from Edmonton!
Fabulous tour.

As always, exceptional.

Welcome!

I like the neon signs one. Where is that in Edmonton?

We have an outdoor neon sign museum on 104st/104ave.

Yes. It's kitty corner to Rogers Place.

Great pics, didn't know that Edmonton was such a nice city! And will probably be even greater with the new development.

Your photos keep getting better!

Beautiful shots as always. Thank you.

Great pics of Alberta's capital.

This is a visible contrast. The city is busy, the neighborhood is peaceful

I visited Edmonton around 20 years ago and found it quite attractive. It was August but the morning temperatures were close to freezing. The streets in and around downtown were largely empty. Most of the action appeared to be at the West Edmonton Mall, which amazed with its aquarium, water-park features, and roller coaster.

Cities win extreme temperature climates tend to make understandable compromises with their urban form. I've seen this in desert cities like Phoenix where the heat forces human presence into cars and air-conditioned spaces. Edmonton's natural beauty is a plus, but Chamber-of-Commerce pictorials can't really alter the reality that most people live inside out of brutal necessity.

Thanks Nite. Edmonton has definitely become a more interesting city over the past few years.

Great set of pics! I’d say that this is the best collection I’ve seen of Edmonton. In some of the angles it looks a little like Vancouver. 😊

Love Edmonton!

Neat touch of Canada's wonderful city.

You’re an excellent photographer, a belated welcome to the forum!
