A fabulous old building, well, old is relative of course! The lights, angular shapes, and the navy coloured sky lend a magical tone here. VV

Well done...captured at just the right time to get that blue in the sky, which contrasts nicely with the lights in the building!

The old BC Hydro never looked so good David. I really like the pattern of the various lit windows and
the spectrum of hues the lights casts. V
