Whereas I'd love to get a picture of London, right about this time of year, with the full canopy of trees. I can picture looking down on the city from the Commissioners/Highbury overpass, and seeing a blanket of green and knowing there is a lot of city hidden underneath it.
But you can KEEP the heat you've been suffering through this week. I don't miss that one bit.

Cresent Road is by far the best for down scenery....Especially in the summer.

Definetely. I believe it's called Pump Hill. The best for Downtown Night photography.
Turn south off 16th ave about 3 blocks west of Centre St and go to the very end.

It is a pretty city, just a tad small. And the heat....good god.......I've never felt anything like this.

Josh - I love the panoramic picture but it really screws up the forum. Can you perhaps put a thumbnail in its place and link back to the full size? Please?

I agree, a tad bit to big for the thread but the thought is nice.
These pictures are simply spectacular, I really liked the Petro Can tower at night pic from the Calgary Tower.
This is making me not want to move (should've seen that coming!)
