Dawn at Coal Harbour

Summer in Vancouver is an amazing time with sunny and warm weather, facilitating numerous outdoor activities. Vancouver is rated as one of the best cities in the world to live in, and there are endless things to see and do during the summer months.

One of the best places to explore during the summer months is Stanley Park, which is located at the west end of Vancouver. Stanley Park is a 400-hectare natural rainforest, and it provides scenic views of the water, mountains, sky, and majestic trees along its famous Seawall. This photo was created looking back at Vancouver from the Stanley Park seawall on the east side of the park between the Vancouver Rowing Club and the Royal Vancouver Yacht Club.

This particular August morning offered up beautiful underlit clouds while the calm seas produced wonderful reflections. The most serious challenge in creating this exceptionally ultra-high-resolution photo was the tide. As the numerous photos were being captured, a 4.2-meter tide was on its way out, causing the boats to appear lower in each photo and presenting some technical challenges in post-production when all the individual photos were assembled into this wide view of the harbour.
