I see. I got the 55km figure from the photographer. He may have just guessed the distance.

The interesting thing is that Hamilton mountain is further from Toronto (downtown) than Stony Creek is.

Check out this one, taken by canada_habs2004 on SSP:

it was taken from the Niagara Escarpment on the Niagara Peninsula, I believe somewhere between Smithville and Fonthill. 68 km away according to canada_habs2004. My congrats to him on getting that picture...

Wow.

I like that shot with the lightening!

Reminds of what happens to people when they disagree with me.

Scientists are trying to tap this consequence of my argumentative nature as an alternative energy source. They say they will make me rich, but I disagree with them.

I Haven't posted much here but thought you might like a couple new photo's Here are some pics from around the city that I got on the weekend. Hope you like them.

Skybean · March 12th, 2005, 03:24 PM

Woah.... incredible aerials!! Thanks for posting!

I like that last picture:
1 Harbourfront alone, as shown in that last shot, could be the downtown of a medium sized city.

2 The other remarkable thing is the area around the CN Tower and the Dome -- that area changes very dramatically every 10 or so years. It's quite something.

Some photos from a short errand run.

This is my first post. If anyone could tell me how you go about getting permission to post directly to skyscraper, rather than redirecting, I would appreciate it.

This one's nice, although don't know what I think about it given the location.

oceanmdx · March 21st, 2005, 12:57 AM

Skybean, your pics are amazing - as usual.
