29 stunning photos of this morning's colourful sunrise in Vancouver

Early risers were treated to a spectacle this morning as Vancouver’s skies were painted orange, red, pink, yellow, and purple from a gorgeous sunrise – the cherry on top of back-to-back rainless days in the city.

Don’t worry if you weren’t up early enough to enjoy the show, we’ve compiled some of the best shots for you.
