DOWNTOWN VICTORIA, VANCOUVER ISLAND, BRITISH COLUMBIA
The capital city of this western Canadian province is one of the most picturesque in the country. During our 2023 visit, I was blessed to photography it at and after sunset, when a lack of wind provided beautiful water reflections.

The massive building on the right is the The Empress Hotel, an elegant structure with gables, spires, and a gothic architectural style. Opened on 20 January 1908, the Empress is considered one of Canada’s grand railway hotels. Since its opening, the Empress has undergone two expansions, the first from 1910 to 1912, and a second expansion in 1928. The building was designated as a National Historic Site of Canada in 1981.
