Outstanding!

The one of Woodwards and the Dominion Building is one of the best photos I have ever seen of Vancouver, bar none!

Reminiscent of an industrial city.

Stunning photos. Thanks for sharing - I'm quite jealous of your apartment suite.

Post these on the Canada section please. People there always seems to think we are just downtown then nothing after, this shows we do have a nice sized "Montreal Style" midrise section along the East hastings corridor.

PS in the first pic one can see the new Brentwood Skyline, it sure does add a "big city" feel seeing other skylines in the distance from the main one.

Delirium, that shot totally kicks ass! Look at all those buildings hehe.

This pic is a keeper for sure. A 2010 memento given that you can see the rings at anchor in Coal Harbour.

Is it any wonder I love this city.

Thanks for the comments!

Hed, the camera I used was the Nikon D90 but I recently upgraded to a D300.

What a beautiful end to today! I noticed a few new cranes, or newly raised cranes, are now sitting high above the skyline:

A couple of random shots from today.

VAG

http://www.flickr.com/photos/syume/4162447810/

The reflection of the flag caught my eye

http://www.flickr.com/photos/syume/4161721705/

This is quickly becoming a huge tourist attraction. Tons of people snapping photos.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/syume/4161723947/

This is a pretty big attraction, too!

I love the fisheye lens Click link for bigger.

If I was the city I would PAY sears to put a wrap on that building. I don't care if it is Mario and Sonic or what, but if any building needs a wrap for the Olympics it's Sears. But noo... they won't even power-wash the damn mould off it. If Pyongyang can clean up their evil pyramid, we should be able to clean up the Sears building.

Excellent photos all around.

Yume, that fisheye lens is sick. Love it!

Great skyline/crane shot, enthoesfog. I'm assuming the cranes are for the YMCA and Capitol towers.

It's cool to see the giant Canadian flag getting so much attention. So simple, yet so effective.

Here's a shot from taiscapes on flickr showing off the flag from the air.
