365 Project, Day 77
Here is my day seventy-seven submission to my 365Project:
I bought my first wide angle lens today as a birthday present to myself (September 13 is the big day!)...and here's a photo I got from my first shoot with it around Victoria at night. We have so many interesting places to photograph here and I liked how the the seats of Red Fish, Blue Fish (an awesome fish and chips spot!) lead the eye to the old Customs House building.
Fun fact of the day:
Customs House (1874) was the first federal building built in Victoria after British Columbia entered Confederation. The building has a traditional form indicating the regulatory function it had in Victoria's harbour; there is a lower receiving floor with upper offices and a roof-top viewing deck which allowed for the ability to view the harbour and harbour heads.
Here are some more photos from today:
I went on another trip with Five Star Charters this afternoon and we saw members of all three groups of Resident, fish-eating, killer whales (Orcinus orca) swimming across the Victoria waterfront towards San Juan Island, Washington.
Local resident hanging out on the front steps, of one of the more interesting places to live in Victoria, Saint Joseph Apartments, which used to be Saint Joseph Hospital
