The magnificent Empress Hotel in Victoria, Canada. The trees in front of the hotel intrigued me, I have never seen any like that before.
Our last stop on our 14 day Alaskan cruise.

She's a beauty! Captured in all of its grandeur. Linda and I had high tea there in '73. Just a couple of young dilettantes drifting across Canada . . .

I enjoy seeing places that I have been in other people's photos!! This is a beautiful shot of a stately, gorgeous place. Victoria certainly is a lovely place. Wish we had more time to spend there. We were there via ferry from Washington and only had 6 hours.

Well photographed, Ann. And just for fun, the website "Unknown Victoria" says the trees are weeping sequoia.

I love this angle on the beautiful Empress. Both Victoria and Vancouver have some of the most amazing trees, but I especially love those weeping sequoias. This is such a beautiful shot, Ann!
