Post a picture of your city skyline. Extra enthusiasm for taking the picture yourself. Super points for living in Chicago or London.




My digital camera's f*#ked but here's downtown Edmonton, seen from about 4-10 blocks from my place:



A fancier picture from the fall:



And a winter picture:




The population of Edmonton is about 700 000; a million including surrounding communities. The river running through Edmonton is the The North Saskatchewan (cheezy tourist video!). If it weren't for the river valley, Edmonton would be pretty terrible.








If you're unsure how to post a picture, there is help available.

your namby-pamby snapshots are no match for the skyline of Edina!

Nice moody night shot...




... from the rail yard...



...a nice one from the lake...



I did not take these pictures... I googled 'em. No points for me.

Is this Edina? Looks like Edmonton, sort of.

This is a photo from the window of my flat, that I took last summer. I think the modernist block is designed by Richard Seifert , an architect who designed quite a few of London's tallest buildings. These ex-council flats were squatted when I first moved to London, but have now been redeveloped as luxury apartments. The rest of the skyline is courtesy of Reichsmarshall Herman Goering.

LAD: Edina is notoriously lame. your photo is almost flattering.

Well, they're not all my hometown, but a couple of them are, and I did take all the pics, so...
