Coal Harbour by cdcook48

Coal Harbour

In spite of the rather unattractive name (so named because coal was discovered there in 1859 but not enough to be economically viable) it has transitioned from a largely industrial area in the 1800's and early 1900's into one of the finest and most expensive neighbourhoods in Vancouver. Luxury hotels and residential towers, top restaurants, the trade and convention centre, the cruise ship terminal and a scenic seawall leading into Stanley Park, the city's largest and best known park.
Lovely capture of this beautiful scene and a fabulous skyline. It does look rather exclusive and the seawall is great too.

Looks like a lovely place to walk with lots of photo opportunities. I love how the walkway curves.

Beautiful cityscape and curving seawall. I'd love to fly that seaplane.

@jerzyfotos I gather you live in Kelowna. I sure hope you weren’t affected too badly by the fires last summer. If you visit Vancouver let me know and we can meet for coffee and talk photography.

Love your composition and pov

The silver-blue tones in this really are nice. I like this city-/waterscape a lot.

Beautiful cityscape and also unique in my experience with a seaplane.

@cdcook48 we could see the fires from our balcony but were spared...again. Good plan for that coffee in your back yard and maybe Granville Island has interest for you. Cheers

Wonderful point of view. The circular leading line is fabulous

Love the POV and those forboding clouds.
