Cool. You gave 2 links to the same picture. Does that mean it's your favorite? :-)

In response to pm's on the story behind this photo: pbase.com During the second World War, there was a large Japanese immigrant shore fishery on the British Columbia coast. I saw the following photo at a small museum dedicated to these people on the seashore at Vancouver. The Japanese citizens were rounded up and sent to internment villages in the interior of British Columbia. Their property was confiscated. The photo is of their boats rounded up and auctioned off by the Canadian government. Apparently they were sold for 5 cents on the dollar. Unsold ones were scuttled at sea. The museum person was good enough to remove the photo and allow me to photo it. C
