Frozen Legislature by kwind

Frozen Legislature

I'm late in posting... we decided upon waking up this morning that we would take off to Victoria (3 hour drive away) for an overnight adventure. So we grabbed some clothes and loaded the van with the four of us, my mom, my sister and my niece & nephew. We had a great time! The capital of our province was in full festive mode. We walked, shopped, explored and visited friends. We fed seals fish, explored the BC museum, saw a collection of gingerbread houses and Christmas trees. We went out for dinner, my nephew skated and then we all went for a swim at the hotel. I took an insane number of photos, which I'm too tired to process fully at this point.

This is the frozen fountain in front of the legislature buildngs in the inner harbour of Victoria. Please view large if you have time as it's much better!

It's 10:15pm New Year's Eve but I'm going to bed as tomorrow we're off on another adventure... tubing at Mount Washington.
How amazing and so beautiful, enjoy your trip. Victoria is a beautiful city and I have very fond memories of my visits.

This is stunning. The frozen fountain is just beautiful and the out of focus building in the background just adds to it. Amazing shot.

It's a beautiful scene, with great use of color and light to contrast the fountain and the building.
