Sleeping Giant

The Sleeping Giant. Thunder Bay, Ontario

An Ojibway legend identifies the giant as Nanabijou, who was turned to stone when the secret location of a rich silver mine now known as Silver Islet was disclosed to white men.

Straight from the book on his travels, Lemuel Gulliver is laid asleep, it is only on awakening that he finds himself on the island of Liliput, the home of the little people. :-)
A nice image, very well caught.

Impressive pano, Nancy. The "giant" shows up well despite the fog and haze.

It certainly does take on the shape of a sleeping giant.
