Hello Rob,
Dare I call these photos unusually conventional for coming from you? Maybe even like postcards? But don't worry, they are all very carefully taken and make delightful views. The statue and the Customs House are both very attractive and the green against yellow is a very good combination. Furthermore these photos teach me about the origins of Vancouver and the person who discovered it.
Best regards,
Gert

Bonjour Rob,

C'est vrai que Craig est un digne reprιsentant de la ville de Vancouver. Pour moi c'est ΰ l'autre bout du pays mais il est comme mon cousin. Trθs belle composition.

Amicalement

Hello Rob!

Are you sure you did not mix up parts of your Dutch and English archives?
This looks perfectly Dutch to my humble eyes...

Hi Rob,

The red-orange buoy is an eye-catcher. The point of view is showing the details of the statue of Goerge Vancouver and of the the Customs House. The light is giving nice tints to the colors. Have a nice day.

Hello Rob,

You have done some interesting research to link together the Netherlands, England and Canada! It is so interesting and adds historical understanding to your photograph.
There have been some very interesting tv programmes about this area, with a focus on King'g Lynn, which I thoroughly enjoyed.
I like how you have connected George Vancouver to the custom house by way of the chain. It's a fine capture of the statue and stands out remarkably well because of your thoughtful composition.
The Customs House is a very fine, compact building. It is perfectly designed for its purpose, captured with excellent clarity in your w/s.

I see where your last photographs originated!

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hallo Rob,
Leuk om te zien dat de band tussen Coevorden en Vancouver via die plaatsje in Norfolk loopt. Het standbeeld staat mooi voor het aantrekkelijke gebouw op de achtergrond. Ook een leuke timing in verband met de Megxit, aangezien dat duo een optrekje op Vancouver Island schijnt te hebben.

Nice dedication to Craig, I also did not know that the name of the city in Canada comes from the name of this traveler, a very nice picture

Hallo Rob, this statue was built in tribute to this famous captain. He discovered Vancouver island and many other places on the Pacific coast of Canada and Usa. The pov lines it up well with the custom house in the bg. Fine colors, good sharpness, educational photo note, regards.

Hello Rob,
I knew nothing about the history of George Vancouver, so thanks for the information! I can see that Dutch roots touched Canada as well as the United States. :-) It's a lovely statue, and I like the photo in the WS showing all of the charming Customs House, too.
