I can't recall a Harbor as busy as the one in Victoria. Seaplanes, the little water taxis, ferry, etc.

Excellent set of images Dave. I visited Victoria in 1999, in my film days. I enjoyed the download of all your images, but I am curious about #2. That traffic light has 4 lights, all appearing to be facing the same direction. Two of the lights are showing green and two are showing red. How is one supposed to grasp the meaning of these lights? Thanks in advance.

The two one the right (red when re was taken)are for the lanes turning right. The other two (green) are for traffic going straight through or turning left.

Wonderful series. I think I like the first one the most, but they're all good.

Very nice series, I was there in about 1958, the Queen had just been there and the people were so giddy I couldn't believe it!! Beautiful city, just like jolly old England itself!!
