The Lions are a pair of pointed peaks (West Lion - 1,646 m (5,400 ft);[1] East Lion - 1,606 m (5,269 ft))[2] along the North Shore Mountains in Metro Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. They can be seen from much of the Greater Vancouver area, as far as Robert Burnaby Park in East Burnaby, south to parts of Surrey, and from the west on the Howe Sound Islands and the Sunshine Coast. Along with the Lions Gate Bridge named in their honour, these twin summits have become one of the most recognizable Vancouver landmarks. The city's BC Lions CFL football team is also named in their honour. This mountain also has an alternative name, called "Bert Mountain", as the two pointed peaks resemble the ears of the famous cat Bert [3].

Very nice. I would have given this a 10 if not for the slight halting and the strange vertical stripes in the sky at the top of the image.

no no, incomplete work with these spots in the sky, I think it's fair to say things as they are. Do notput my vote, because otherwise someone will say I'm bad

It's a great image, but not really sure I can give a 10 with the stripes in the sky. I probably would have gotten an 8 for that haha

If those stripe that almost everybody mentions were a processing problem I believe you would removed them. I like it very much!

@vendenis; It is in the original pictures. After multiple layers, it becomes more obvious:(
