But in 1952 he spent 18 days taking photos in 麻豆传媒映画as part of an assignment for聽Maclean鈥檚 Magazine聽to profile Canadian cities. Vancouverite Pierre Berton briefed Karsh on the city, pointing out features such as the gaudy neon-lit streets downtown, Stanley Park, the waterfront, and HR MacMillan lording over his commercial empire from the top of the Marine Building.
As with his portraits, Karsh didn鈥檛 leave much to chance in his 麻豆传媒映画photographs. The top photo was taken atop a hydraulic lift that he commandeered from BCER and car headlights substituted for studio lights in the foggy Stanley Park image.

Unfortunately the other photos aren鈥檛 yet available online, but they include ballerinas at the Hollow Tree, the new Lumberman鈥檚 Arch, Sikh sawmill workers, and a rainy street scene with 鈥淪inging in the Rain鈥� on the marquis of a Granville theatre.
