Nice photos.

On my trip to Italy last month, I tried to take pictures from the plane, but none of them turned out as clear as yours did; good job

These are incredible! I saw them on your flickr account and was in awe. I especially love the shot of Yonge flowing from NYCC all the way downtown.

Nice shots.

The view from above very effectively shows the difference between NYCC and MCC. The former currently looks much more livable than the latter. However, you can also see how much of an improvement there will be in Mississauga once the Square One parking lot is developed.

Good aerial pics!

Shows how big NYCC is. Bigger than most downtowns of many cities in North America.

great selection of pics showing some amazing vistas of the city! I too was really struck by how impressive NYCC was compared to MCC. I actually really like the final shot looking south down the 427 with the chaos of all the traffic and ramps etc. thanks for sharing!

And both NYCC and MCC will only get bigger : - )

MCC will still seem more spread apart but covering a wider area whereas NYCC will just get more and more dense ... eventually it'll grow more to the North but I think that will be a slow process and either way I'd rather concentrate on infill between NYCC and Finch first.

Excellent set of photos with very good clarity considering they came from inside an airplane. Great variety in the shots as well. When I first saw the shots of Mississauga city centre I wondered what that sprawling construction zone was in the middle and then I remembered Square One. Way too much parking space.

Willie, you might be able to improve the clarity of the shots and wring some nice detail and fuller colour out of the shots by working with the levels in your graphics software. In particular, I'd suggest bringing up the black threshold slider to the first (leftmost) spike in the histogram.
