This is SO neat. It is just amazing how he did this.

THE COCHRANE MURAL----- LOOK CLOSER BY CLICKING ON ANY PART OF THE MURAL

For those not living in the Canada, Cochrane is NW of Calgary and east of Banff, in the foothills of the Rockies.

This mural was unveiled last week at the Cochrane Ranch House.

Each tile is 1 foot square, is it's own individual picture and each is by a different artist. All of them together form this huge mural. You can click on each of the tiles to see them in detail.

Check out, especially, the horse's eye.

Yes, the Mural is in AB, but the wording is such that it implies there is only one of Cochrane in Canada. There is the one in Ontario and a wee mention in the Gatineau area of Quebec. That's the point I was making. & those who automatically think Cochrane, Ontario, as I do, could get confused.
