Standing Guard at Sir Isaac Brocks Memorial. One of the Fallen heroes of the war of 1812. I shot this last night, a quick stop on our way to catch the fireworks at Niagara Falls. This monument is one of the coolest I have ever seen. There are four of these guards surrounding the actual monument.

yup - im also finding it hard to find the right subject... i drove past a fantastic old barn in the middle of a field, that was painted like a canandian flag! too bad that was before i found out what the theme was, and the barn is at least 4 hours away.... oh well, i'll keep hunting!

Just a question, I live in Canada, so what about a Maple Leaf?

[ben997]

A maple leaf would be an awesome idea. That is true canadian! you could also take wildlife shots for this such as geese, moose, beavers, or any wild animals that you can safely photograph.

If I come across any animals I definitly will snap come photos...I love animals. I have a really nice picture of a maple leaf, when I get it on the computer I'll see how it looks.
