I was up early this morning in order to be out at the airport to pick someone up and before I left I snapped a couple photos of the city as the sun rose. I took these from my apartment windows and they're quick and simple shots, no tripod or anything fancy.

A sliver of downtown.

My photo

Central Broadway precinct.

Does this count? haha

Cool. It's neat seeing other cities skylines from around Canada. The exciting thing about Victoria's skyline is there are four current projects downtown that will have taller buildings than what's currently downtown. from 13 and 15 story office towers to 17 to 24 story residential towers.

Here is the Mt Tolmie shot in a smaller version.

Calgary is my fav canadian skyline,
it is actually 1 of world favourites actually (favourite skyline, that is not city)

MelboyPete · September 11th, 2007, 03:02 PM

Thanks for the 'tour' Will....I had no idea Canada had so many cities with fantastic skylines. Never even heard of Burnaby but wow..great skyline.
Vancouver looks so much bigger than it's population suggests, Calgary & Edmonton look awesome.
Would love to visit Canada, one of my top 5 countries to visit.

Resembles Chatswood outside of Sydney IMO.
Doesn't get much better than great Canadian skylines.

Excellent photo's of all the various skylines.

It took me a while to "twig" to some of the Vancouver shots... despite being an ex-GVRD resident.. given unanticipated - but very interesting - photo directions.

You mean as to location or province?

PEI is a province, the only island province, and connected to the mainland by the Confederation Bridge, with the province of New Brunswick at the other end.

Moncton, Saint John and Fredericton are the three biggest cities in the province of New Brunswick.

I have never heard of Saint Jose.... or do you mean San Jose?

Montreal has the best skyline in Canada by far despite it being smaller than Toronto. I also like Toronto's and Calgary's.
