I have posted this building before, but I wanted to shoot it again and see if I could get a bit of a different angle.
This is the Deloitte building in downtown Vancouver, a 24 storey commercial high rise. Each cube has four storeys. If you zoom in, you'll see that the cubes at the right are concrete - apparently, they are going to be green walls, so hopefully we will soon see plants growing up there.
A beaut of a butte, east of Lake Powell, on the far side of Antelope Island, which lies low in the foreground, shadowed just before sunset. Note the layering on the butte and the cliffs behind, indicating sandstones and shales laid down by sedimentary processes—completely different from the massive intrusive granite blocks in Monument Valley, which are remnants of volcanic activity.
The map location may not be accurate.

This was taken at Old Harbor in Block Island. Block Island is off the coast of Rhode Island and is a popular summer vacation spot for New Englanders. I got up early for sunrise, put my equipment in the basket of my bike are rode to the shore. The sunrise was a bust so I decided to look for other interesting spots to photograph.

Cresswell Beach, poor sunrise but you always get something no matter what the weather down the coast
From that time forth began Jesus to show unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.
(Matthew 16:21)
I was amazed to stumble across half a block of mostly hidden abandoned row houses in the middle of north Detroit. The surrounding blocks are mostly empty now. Just vacant overgrown lots and dark empty buildings.
Has this ever happened to you? I was all set to catch a nice view of the "City of Derailment" passenger train, pulling into Salt Lake City on the double track main. Unbeknownst to me, a ZLBDV intermodal was also on the approach, about about 10 cars ahead of the passenger train, blocking the view. I quickly repositioned myself in a desperate attempt to grab a photo as UP 4533's nose migrated into a patch of sun. See if you can spot the Rio Tinto copper mine . . .
An almost blocked off section of stream near Takua Pa, Phang Nga, Thailand. We could just about wriggle through in kayaks.
From scraps. Had a huge bag of brown/rust/beige that i never seem to use. Added some orange/red scraps to pretty it up.

Deloitte Summit Building
Located at 410 West Georgia Street, Deloitte Summit rises in the centre of Vancouver's thriving innovation corridor. Inspired by both the surrounding natural landscape, and the shape of a Japanese lantern, the building is already a landmark in the city's iconic skyline.
