Explanation: Taken on February 20, five different exposures made in rapid succession were used to created this tantalizing telephoto image. In combination, they reveal a wide range of brightness visible to the eye on that frigid evening, from the urban glow of the Quebec City skyline to the triple conjunction of Moon, Venus and Mars. Shortly after sunset the young Moon shows off its bright crescent next to brilliant Venus. Fainter Mars is near the top of the frame. Though details in the Moon's sunlit crescent are washed out, features on the dark, shadowed part of the lunar disk are remarkably clear. Still lacking city lights the lunar night is illuminated solely by earthshine, light reflected from the sunlit side of planet Earth.

^ Gorgeous.

I've always liked Kamloops, it's Kelowna that's positively dreadful.

[Hali87]

^ Agreed. They're often conflated but give off totally different vibes, in terms of the culture, landscape, and (in particular) the architecture.

^How often does Hamilton Harbour freeze over so fully? I don't recall ever feeling confident enough to walk out onto the harbour in winter. I do remember skating on Cootes when I was a kid but...

Awesome variety of cities!

Here's some Kitchener

City Centre 1 is starting to peak into the skyline a little bit

^ What an impressively grandiose looking building, especially considering its function.

A Palace of Power.

Interestingly enough, the actual "skyline" of this picture (where the tallest visible outline of solid matter meets the background sky) would be the exact same even if there wasn't a single building in the pic.

If you could travel back in time to the medieval period that vantage point would give you the same Sherbrooke skyline as 2015.
