Allan Gardens Conservatory is a major landmark and tourist attraction in downtown Toronto. Its historic, cast-iron and glass domed "Palm House" was built in 1910 and is designated under the Ontario Heritage Act. A botanical gem in the heart of the city, Allan Gardens has a permanent collection of exotic plants and beautiful seasonal flower shows.
My sister and I passed by this power plant as we were driving home from the beach a while back. We both found it quite an eerie sight. I tried to bring that mood into this piece.
The attraction of a closed bud, slowly to reveal her hidden beauty.
Wishing you all a very happy weekend ;-))

About the centre:
Built on an empty plot of land in 1981, Al Ghurair Centre was the first modern shopping mall project of its kind in the Middle East. Within no time, it rose in prominence much like the city of Dubai, setting new standards for retail along the way.
In 2013, Al Ghurair Centre underwent an expansion to deliver a better and unique experience. The addition of 150 new stores was complemented by a world-class family entertainment centre, premium & popular dining concepts, an additional 60,000 square feet of office space, a serviced-apartment complex, a 5-star hotel and many other attractions.
At Al Ghurair Centre, life plays out in new and amazing ways with a fine medley of shopping, dining, entertainment and a lot more. Discover why Al Ghurair Centre is one of Dubai's must-see destinations.
The adult males are difficult to find. During the migration they are the first to leave on their road South. I felt fortunate to catch this one zipping around the backyard the last of August.

McKee Botanical Garden July 2015
In the early 1970's, the development of I-95 and competition from large-scale attractions caused attendance to decline. By 1976 the Gardens were forced to close, and the property was sold and zoned for development. All but 18 acres were developed into condominiums while the remaining land lay dormant for twenty years. In 1994, the Indian River Land Trust launched a fund- raising campaign and successfully purchased the property. An additional $9 million was raised to purchase, stabilize and restore the Garden, and in November 2001 a formal dedication ceremony was held for McKee Botanical Garden.
When it started raining on our park hike he drove down the main road with our windows opened to see what we could find. The trails are so wet that most of the deer are right on the roadside.
Myakka River State Park in Sarasota, FL.
On this day last year we were exploring the back roads of the Palouse in eastern Washington. I think this barn with the collapsed roof has been photographed many times, but, what the hell, here is mine to add to the collection :)
Royal Gorge Bridge. This famous suspension bridge is the highest in America. The wooden planks are 956 feet above the Arkansas River. When you look down, you'll often see people enjoying the thrill of whitewater rafting with one of Colorado's many qualified outfitters.
Each day gets a bit scarier on the planet. I was thinking that they would contain this right off the hop and stop all travel right at the start of this. I think it would have made a big difference. But no. So many died a 100 years ago before massive travel.
Be safe. Keep on Truckin'
Happy Truck tHuRsDay
