This is a composite of downtown Toronto, Centre Island and lake Ontario, put together from photos taken from the CN Tower skypod, 443 m above the ground.

Three rows of 18 photos (54 photos total) were used in the composite. Final processing was about 8 hours on a P3/1GHz/1GB

Good work Skybean! Those photos are awesome. They must have been taken from Stoney Creek or Grimsby I would imagine - either way the distance is 54 - 55 km. as measured with Garmin's Mapsource!

Shot with the 401 in view...






But this shot isn't as good as those 55km shots. Must have been taken from Hamilton area, as someone already mentioned. Heck on a clear day when I was driving down the QEW towards Buffalo, I could see the skyline if I looked closely enough and if it was a crisp, clear day.
