| | | I'm really liking #6, with the building in the shot, but the balance/weighting of the image is driving me crazy. I think if you centered the image (aka rails) it would have more impact. Also digging #3.

| | | Thanks for the great comments. Yellow, I see what you mean about 6. The center of the image is killing me now hahah. Glad you guys like 3, I was unsure about it at first.

Is this some weird attempt to assure us all that you are a strong, good looking, virile male? If I laid eyes on you, would my first thought be "Damn. He looks like he could totally chop wood."? Cuz its working. ;)
I like her sweater.

It's no Cowichan! Nice set. That old BCER substation looks orginal, and looks great. The one to the east looks like crap. Updated and such. Thanks for the pix, nice to keep updated on old haunts.
I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems weird and scary to me, and it'll happen to you, too! |

Thanks. I saw the pic of the one your talking about, and I have to agree. But I think I wouldnt mind collecting pic's of all of them anyway. Maybe make them into a collage or somthing.

| | | Rumour is that the old building and area is haunted by an unhappy spirit. The story is that two Italian fellows working on the building or house (not too sure which one) had a quarrel and one of them got angry and cut off the other ones head and then threw the head down a well on the surrounding land.

| | | You beat me to this one crawn. I have many pictures of this as well. I have always told my wife if that ever goes up for sale, I would mortgage everything to buy that place. Here is a recent article in the langley advance about it. http://www.langley...5529258/story.html If you click the photos tab there are a couple nice historical shots.

| | | I have been unable to post until now (and sedated) about how excited this building has got me. Your photos are also excellent. As a heritage architecture fan, I'm extremely glad it lives on, and as much to Norval, an extremely important artist. So good he finally got recognition, as many Native and non Native artists deserve.
