This statue is an icon at Stanley park! Be sure to check it out.
Cool sculpture among many others in the park. Makes for a great photography spot, I managed to take a photo from my bus as it passed and it came out very well
A very interesting statue in the middle of the water. Just out there looking into the far distant void. Always a good thing to go and see. A beautiful work of art. Definitely recommend it if you are having the opportunity.
In Kopenhagen is a similar statue with a mermaid on a rock. Whoever thought of a girl-in-a-wetsuit?? She is bigger than the mermaid, but what is the story here?
Nevertheless it put a smile on my face for originality.
The statue is life size and a few metres away from the shore. Bring a telephoto lens for pictures. A very good spot to photograph the idol and also wild life. Geese, crows, ravens, bald eagles, cormorants. A Chinese relic nearby also offers good photo opportunity.
