Let’s face it: We live in one of the most beautiful countries in the World. So, to celebrate the birthday of Canada, I wanted to go on a photographic journey around the country. I sadly do not get to experience the fireworks tonight – something I usually look forward to – because I must work my other job. If you’re currently at your job, I hope post and these photographs of Canada help to mentally take you away from the cubical and into the scene.
Looking for a photo from each province of Canada, I decided that Nunavut and Northwest Territories deserved more than one photo. I don’t see nearly enough photographs of these areas and upon browsing them, I was fascinated. Canada really is gorgeous and so often we forget that we have such amazing landscapes to discover right here at home. In April, we went out west to BC and Alberta and it was so memorable. Moreover, I watched “One Week,” a movie about a trip heading west and much more, reminded me of the amazing experience you can have here in Canada. If you haven’t watched it, today would be a perfect day to take the time to rent it. If you watch it, let me know what you think of it and let me know something about Canada that you find fascinating. These photos that I am about to display here, are reason enough that I love my country. Now I just need to move out west for less cold winters. Enjoy and Happy Canada Day!

Happy Birthday CANADA 2009!
I’m pleased and honoured that you chose to use one of the images from my creative commons contributions for your blog.
I completely agree that Canada is a beautiful country. I have lived in all four western provinces, and each one has it’s own unique beauty.
Well done to recognize them all!
Thank’s for the very nice picture too! It’s interesting to see part of Canada I have never come across yet as well.
I love Canada so much. If ever I think of a certain place referring to nature, I always got to answer Canada. Yes Canada is a very unique place to live. The ambiance it features is very nostalgic. I am very much wanting to be living there someday.
