BC Government Eagle

Behind the BC Provincial government building was this interesting fountain. There were statues of Canadian animals around the edge of the fountain, I thought the eagle was the most photographically interesting so took a couple of shots.

Silhouette Stairs

Woke up early on boxing day and headed down to the beach in South Victoria to try out my new tripod I got for Christmas and this was one of my favorite shots from the morning. I got lucky this lady was out for her morning walk just as the sun came over the stairs because there were many others out that morning.
