20 stunning photos of Thursday's sunset in Vancouver

Thursday night’s sunset was one for Instagram, and camera lenses were pointed at the sky to capture all the colours disappear behind the mountains.

The sunny and warm weather delighted Vancouverites this week, and it’s only just beginning.

So here’s the question, if you witnessed a gorgeous sunset and you didn’t post it on Instagram, did the sunset ever happen?

Non so cosa mi piace di più di #Vancouver: i suoi #skyscrapers, l’ #oceanopacifico o le sue #montagne. In ogni caso il tutto la rende #mozzafiato – #amazing #italianyes #backpacker #sunset – un saluto ai #cacciatoriditramonti –
