Wow, Jerry what a perspective!!! You actually can feel the height!! I have been at Graville and Robson but it has been at least 10 years, was this building there then??

Thanks for the encouraging comments, everyone.
Yes, Tyler, this is the Futureshop/Winners Building. I was the typical, bored husband on vacation with the little woman scouring the Winners store for bargains (aren't enough of these at home ;-)). I had also just gotten my WA conversion lens for my V1, so was experimenting with what it could do. I have to admit, it's a little dizzying looking down from that perspective.

BTW, our son lives within easy walking distance from here, so we visit here a lot.

Nice shot Jerry, great perspective! Sometimes, wires can be a distraction but I love seeing all the cables and wires from this viewpoint. Very nice indeed!

Nice Hitchcockian perspective, Jerry.

Very striking perspective and some great angles here, Jerry. Almost makes me dizzy looking at it and happy that you were taking it, not me :-). Nicely seen and captured! Helen

Sorry, great big hole. Either I need to start spell checking, or pbase needs to have an edit comment function. I'd prefer the latter.

Great perspective. Is this the Futureshop/Winners building? If so, the street on the right is now a great bug hile they are digging for the new subway system. Creative angle, I like all the criss-crossing lines.

Looks like you were hanging from the rafters to get this shot! The angle and lack of a "floor" give this picture a great sense of height. I can't help but feel like I might fall. Nicely done.
