That's a gorgeous shot of Corner Brook, but neither of those others have actual skylines.

The peg had a huge pow-wow the other day, I guess the largest in the country?

I think this is the best shot of St. John's skyline I've ever seen. This angle really makes it look denser and not so spread out and linear. When they finally finish the Henry Bell buildings it will really add to this shot as well.

Also, great job to those who posted the skylines of the smaller cities across Western and Atlantic Canada - really interesting.

Here's Calgary's tiny Westbrook Skyline. One of the buildings is over 80 meters, I believe. Possibly higher.


Photos by me yesterday

Yeah, but it is a small skyline. Didn't think it belonged in the regular skyline thread, hence why I didn't double post it in both. However, if it's actually something people are gonna complain about, I'd be glad to move it.

I do think we need another category for the secondary skylines of our big cities.

Thanks so much for posting pics of some of those small cities! I hear their names but have NEVER seen pics of them. Always was curious to see what Lethbridge or Moose Jaw looked like.

Also that is the best St Johns pic Ive seen. It looks like a major city. Very Halifax-ish.

No probs, man. Any time. Hopefully Airboy will post a new pic of Fort McMurray once their new office building is up.

No one is complaining, just joking around.

Excellent skyline shot of Hamilton. Rarely you see a photo of Hamilton from Burlington.

Always good to see Hamilton from other angles. Like Montreal with Mont Royal, Hamilton gets stuck with a bit too many pics from the same angle.

I can see Hamilton has a densely built, long waterfront skyline with 2 pinnacle points at opposite sides.

I like it.

The skyline isn't really very waterfront. I think it's a bit further from the bay than Montreal's is from the water.
