More photos of the Parliament Building. I took a lot of photos over several days.
I think this might be a lion.
A floral face.
A little owl.
A statue holding a book titled "Law" and standing on a plinth labeled "Law." I'm going to guess this is a personification of Law.
Crown atop a book gracing the top of a pillar of the library wing of the Parliament Building.
Foliate Head carved into the keystone of an arch.
Two allegorical figures, maybe Architecture and Surveying, on either side of a dome.
Mark sitting regally in a chair installed outside.
Stone stag and bighorn ram supporting the crest of the Province of British Columbia, outlined in large, unlit, white Christmas lights. I would have to add that the lights looked like a Disney gingerbread wonderland by night, but distracted from the lines of the building by day. Perhaps some day they will be replaced by more discrete LED strings or illuminated by lasers somehow.
This set of photos does not include the ones I took of the stained glass or the building's interior.
