Shipyards View
This waterfront plaza in North Vancouver sits directly across Burrard Inlet from downtown Vancouver, giving you an unobstructed view of one of the most dramatic city skylines in Canada. The wide stone esplanade lets you frame the glittering towers of Vancouver against the water, with the North Shore mountains rising behind you for added context if you turn around. Shoot from low near the water's edge to capture reflections of the city lights in the inlet, or use the dock structures and bollards as foreground elements to add depth. Sunset and the blue hour that follows are the prime windows here, as the warm sky transitions to deep blue while the city lights begin to glow across the water. A 24-70mm lens covers most compositions well, and the area is fully accessible with flat, open ground throughout. (North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada)
