Edmonton skyline under construction
Lens: HD DA 55-300 ED WR Camera: K-30 Photo Location: Beverley ISO: 200 Shutter Speed: 1/800s Aperture: F8

When I moved to Edmonton in 1978, the Telus (Alberta Government Telephones at the time) building on the left side of first photo was the highest building in Edmonton with 34 floors. The tallest of the buildings under construction is the Stantec Tower which will be 66 floors when completed, making it the tallest building in Canada west of Toronto. These pictures are taken from across the North Saskatchewan River, in a residential community in the north east.

First photo is very good.Trees make it something more than just an urban setting, while still telling your story of radically increased heights.

Thank you, I wanted to capture a sense of how the downtown buildings are like an island surrounded by low-rise residential communities and urban parkland as well as making some recent historical comparisons.
