Hi April,
You can take better pictures than that, on top of the Vancouver Harbour Centre revolving restaurant you can take beautiful pictures during nightime or maybe you need an invitation.

Hi all,
I live in the sinful city that never sleeps. Jeep, that is a sweet pic of Chichin-Itza. I was just there and climbed that very pyramid.......Of course, I hyper-ventilated when I got to the top and turned around ;D The 91-year old lady who was up there with me (NO JOKE!) got a good laugh outta me! That was one of the coolest things I have ever done.

My legs still hurt from that climb. The Mayan ruins are beautiful, to say the least!!! But I sure wouldn't want to play thier version of basketball!!!

April, I like that last photo. Looks like he's going to land in the bay...

Hi April,
I do live in Toronto, but my sister and her family live in Richmond along the Railway Drive.
If you do plan to go to the Top, I mean the revolving restaurant just let me know and we could work something out.

Damn! Discus seem to have a foothold in some amazing looking places :-)

This is a shot of Brisbane, Australia, where I live.

I took this from Kangaroo Point, which overlooks the city over the river.

Cheers!

This one I took a couple of weeks back from my back verandah.

We got some really cool-assed looking storms.. I really love the normal daylight contrasting with the dark clouds.

Cheers!

This is my city's land mark,
Standing on the shores of Thunder Bay at the head of the great Lake Superior, one can perceive, on looking out across the waters of Thunder Bay, a great land formation situated directly in the mouth of the Bay
