Situated on the far west coast of Canada, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is the capital city of the Province of British Columbia. Its benign climate (the warmest winters in Canada) and placid lifestyle make it a favorite retirement location as well as a popular tourist destination. About 400,000 people live in Victoria and adjacent communities.

Love the minimalism on the top photo. I'm guessing the view from the old observatory is a good one!
This is also on our list of stuff to check out. We can see the other observatory (the big one) from our living room window. We are big astronomy fans, so a visit is definitely due.
Great picture! It looks like something from Greece! And OF COURSE it's sitting on top of giant rocks.
Just beautiful shots, both of them. The first appeals to me because of its modern art feel, or perhaps its similarities with some photos of Santorini. The second is just spectacular with such true color. You've really captured the magnificence of the setting and the day.

Both great images, Ben, but your wall shot is stunning! Elaine would approve, no doubt.
Beautiful shots! I suppose people who don't live in our corner of the world don't fully appreciate the appearance of a blue sky. Like we do.
The top 'minimalist' shot is to me, so 'effing' good that it seriously belongs in a art-photo exhibition/competition.
It truly is superb !
I remember this from last year and thought I had commented then, .. ? Guess not.
