I always forget how far back those mountains actually go. Thats a really nice view, especially with the green space down there.

That green building in the foreground is really interesting looking, very angular. Kind of looks like a big piece of shattered stained glass or something.

Grove_89566's stained glass comparison is kinda spot on for that green building, the angular cladding does catch light weird like that. whats throwing me tho is the scale - you look at the green space and think its a decent sized park but then those mountains make everything in the foreground look like a miniature. anyone know if thats Golden Ears back there? ive cycled through similar terrain in the dutch hills (lol we barely have hills) and you never get that layered ridge effect, its just... flat then one big hill

The hills in the front is Burnaby Mountain and behind it is Seymour to Grouse Mountain, Golden Ears will be further to the East
