Victoria Night Reflections Photo

Photographer’s Note

The Edwardian, château-style hotel was designed by Francis Rattenbury for Canadian Pacific Hotels as a terminus hotel for Canadian Pacific's steamship line, whose main terminal was just a block away.[1] The hotel was to serve businesspeople and visitors to Victoria, but later as Canadian Pacific ceased its passenger services to the city, the hotel was successfully remarketed as a resort to tourists. Victoria emerged as a tourist destination beginning in the mid-to-late 1920s.

Hi Roberto. Great night shot. Wonderful colours and good handling of light. The reflections add a nice calm mood to the scene also. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.

Bonjour Roberto,
Très belle prise de vue nocturne. Le cadrage et la netteté sont très bons, les reflets excellents.
Les châteaux au Canada sont des hôtels. Ils sont magnifiques. Je ne connais pas encore l'Ouest canadien ;o)
Merci du partage.
Pierre

Hello Roberto,
Une très jolie compo nocturne. De beaux reflets du château illuminé dans l'eau et de très belles couleurs.
Un pov bien choisi et de bons contrastes.
Best regards

Roberto
J'aime beaucoup les reflets et l'éclairage bicolore du château. Même si la netteté me parait un petit peu limite, cette photo nocturne est vraiment très agréable à regarder.
Amicalement
JJ

Hi Roberto,

A beautiful night shot from Victoria. I visited this city a long time ago and still remember this building. The colours, reflections and sharpness are excellent. I also like the simple but beautiful frame. TFS and have a nice day!

Cheers,

Ulf
