On the waterfront

dkoyanagi

Went down to the waterfront yesterday to shoot some photos. This scene wouldn't be out of place in the Yukon or Alaska (except for the flag)



Yet if you turn 90 degrees to your left you see this: million dollar waterfront condos



and publc art



For a city of over 2 million, Vancouver still has a remarkable frontier feel about it.

I'm not sure. The first time I saw it it reminded me of Dorothy's house landing on the witch in the Wizard of Oz. It looks like a church when flying through the air during a tornado and landed here, or something.

Nice to see Kenmore Air is still flying...

I love the seaplane shot...I think that's the view that gives you that
frontier feel.
