"Ancient symbols of Inuit culture traditionally used as landmarks and navigation aids, this grey granite statue representing a human form with outstretched arms is a well-known symbol in Canada of northern hospitality and friendship." ~ Constructed by Alvin Kanak of Rankin Inlet, n.w.t.
 
Despite the popular English spelling as inukshuk both the Gov'ts of Nunavut & Canada through Indian & Northern Affairs Canada are promoting the Inuit preferred spelling inuksuk. this monument was in the N.W.T. pavilion at Expo 86, and given to the City of Vancouver.

FROM THE 5TH CHAPTER OF THE 'BOOK OF DAD/PAPA' :

 

 

"Well then; looks like I'm about to have my photography aired on CBC tonight.  The attached photo will air on CBC locally tonight but there's also a chance that the photo will make it to the last 5 minutes dedicated to weather on The National."

 

(excerpted from a recent family email from our brother DAN whom I asked & received permission to display on Tabblo. GORGEOUS, SUMPTUOUS COLOR AND OUR PACIFIC COASTAL PIECE OF PARADISE!)

 

WE ALL ARE VERY PROUD OF YOUR PHOTOGRAPHIC SKILLS DAN

~ Luv yo bro from dis sis pmc xoo

 

English Bay is located in Vancouver,British Columbia west of the downtown peninsula, which separates the bay from Burrard Inlet connecting to the northeast, and False Creek to the southeast. English Bay Beach, near the city's West End residential neighbourhood, is the most popular sunbathing, swimming, and sunset-watching beach in the downtown Vancouver area. South of the bay lie Kitsilano Beach, Jericho Beach, the Spanish Banksbeaches, and Locarno Beach. English Bay is a major tourist attraction to visitors all year long, with the peak season being late summer.

The Vancouver Seawall runs all the way around English Bay from Stanley Park in the northeast, around False Creek, and down to the very well known Wreck Beach on the Strait of Georgia in the southwest.

Thanks for all the positive comments. It's not hard to photograph something of this beauty when it's just laid out in front of you for the snapping. No tricks, no photoshopping required. Now you know why they promote this province as Super Natural Beautiful British Columbia.
One correction though Dear Sister. It was actually photo number 5, the one you placed into soft focus that aired on CBC rather than the 1st photo.

i love nature she paints pictures all the time for me i especialy like it when in early spring she fills the sky with scattered clouds and makes for me a backdrop sky a blue sky is very nice but can be a little bit boring or to plain.
we are children of the light&we come from the light &we will eventualy return to the light.
for us with out the light for us it would be g/night
is that a sunset?or sunrise iam on the other side of the world.
lovely colours very bright, soft focus not gone on it in anything other than portraits the girls/babys
and perhaps some flower shots.
only me talking i might have tried a n/d filter to see the effect of it.
patty u do 2nd/shot paint mabe water/oils only asking.
