    hey amda, lovely capture, i wish the sky was a bit more dramatic as in some clouds in there. but that's not always possible. for what you were dealt u captured it nicely. in this instance the quick capture and the jagged reflection works nicely. cool image.

    Thank you Leels for the comments. Yep, I thought about the sky being too bland. It isn't very often we get nice puffy clouds around here... either a pure blue sky or a pure gray one.

    I must have had copied the URL before I made the picture public on Flickr. Changing the privacy settings changes the URL. It showed up fine here.

    Nice.
    However it doesn't look like Vancouver, WA.
    Oh wait, this is Vancouver. BC
    I need to re-visit up there some time
    Colors look good to me, and I also like the crop.
    Feel Free to edit my photos, However please explain what you did to them.

    Thanks for the replies. Yes, it was shot from Stanley Park.

    Rick: You need to use the "Go advanced" thread replying option, instead of the "Quick Reply". Then, scroll down a little to the "Attach files" section.
