Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a pink or purple day at Color my World Daily. And the theme at Smile on Saturday is carved art pieces. I wish I could tell that I’m very good at carving stuff but unfortunately this not the case. I have no carving talent what os ever… I tried to carve something out of soap once and I almost lost 3 fingers… I’m very clumsy and the situation gets even worst when I manipulate sharp objects…
So for today’s picture we have a small wooden elephant and an exemple of my carving talent. I carved this pencil with my initials (I tried to make a heart but it was way more difficult, so I sticked to straight lines …) all by myself !! The elephant is part of my personal collection of elephants. And if I remember right, it was a gift from my aunt. He is very stubborn and he like to push on things with his trunk… Also he is a drinker so dont let him near your drink or it will disappear in no time ! But other than that he is very smart and funny. He was carved from a very hard wood, which makes him almost unbreakable… After all, he survived in my house for so many years....
I wish you all a beautiful day !! See you later my friends !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!! And see you soon on Flickr !!
Smile on Saturday ~ Carved Art Pieces
Sadly I have no idea where I got this tiny box from but a label on the bottom says, 'Holy Land Stone'.
Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. All comments and Faves are very much appreciated
Lichtenberg Mountain and Lake Valhalla from the top of Mount McClausland. I did go down to the lake after this first portion of the hike, but there were so many over night campers down there just waking up that I didn't want to disturb them, so I left quietly.

This is named the altar and around one can see carved old norse runes and newer names or initials
Still some more from the manmade cave, believed to be carved out by celtic munks some time before norse settlement in Iceland
Yellowstone's Lewis River carved this impressive canyon on it's way to joining the Snake River.
Named after Meriwether Lewis. However, he didn't pass by here during his Corp of Discovery Expedition to the Pacific coast. They were much further North.
Enjoy a wonderful Sunday!
Thanks for taking a look!

Ezekiel 40:42 “There were four tables carved from stone for the burnt offering, each one and a half cubits long, one and a half cubits wide, and one cubit high, on which the instruments are laid for slaughtering burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
Hemsedal is a municipality located in southern Norway, north of the city Gol. From the north to the south flows the river Hemsil, which carved a valley of high tourist value. Along the river Hemsil runs road 52 from Gol to Laerdal. Hemsedal is best known for the large alpine skiing resort, one of the largest in Norway.
A big tourist attraction in the Hemsil valley is;
*A powerful and impressive double waterfall Rjukandefossen
on the river Hemsil, falling 18 meters down a narrow gorge.
*Hydnefossen is the highest waterfall in the Buskerud region,
which falls from a height of 140 meters from the top of
Veslehorn, total 530 meters high.

Antelope Canyon, near Page, Arizona, is a narrow slot canyon carved out by the same waters that flow into the Colorado River and carved the Grand Canyon. The walls of the canyon have, over many years, been carved into what looks like fluid rock. The flood waters from rain above travel through cracks and caverns in the sandstone until it builds up significant speed near Antelope Canyon. As the flood water rushes and spirals through the canyon rock formations, it continually sands and reshapes the walls into fine masterpieces. This water eventually makes its way to Lake Powell and ultimately the Colorado River.
The walls of Antelope Canyon are over sixty feet high. The natural light from the sun, directly overhead at about noon, illuminate the walls and floor of the canyon making this place one of the most awe inspiring and beautiful photographic sights in America.
Standing tall in front of the awe-inspiring Kailasa Temple at Ellora, the Victory Pillar (Dhwajastambha) is more than just an architectural element—it is a symbol of spiritual conquest and imperial devotion. Carved from a single rock in the 8th century under the patronage of Rashtrakuta king Krishna I, the Kailasa Temple is one of the greatest monolithic structures in the world. The Victory Pillar marks the sacred threshold to this grand temple dedicated to Lord Shiva, celebrating not just military victories, but also the triumph of dharma (righteousness) over chaos.
Location: Ellora Caves, India

This is a carved sandalwood air freshener which was given to me as a present many years ago, It still smells wonderful to this day. It is just a bit larger than a tennis ball
Nestled in the southern Green Mountains of Vermont, the Lye Brook Wilderness offers a wild escape. Carved by Lye Brook, the landscape here ranges from dramatic cliffs to serene ponds and bogs. Hikers can explore a network of trails, including a portion of the famed Appalachian Trail. Lush forests with vibrant northern hardwoods like maple and birch cover much of the area, while remnants of old logging railroads hint at the wilderness's past. Lye Brook Falls, a cascading waterfall, is a popular destination, but the true beauty of this wilderness lies in its untamed spirit.
Mary, Queen of the World Cathedral
1085 De la Cathedrale Street, Montreal
The Cathedral is the third largest church in Quebec and is Catholic denomination. It was built to replace the former St. Jacques Cathedral which had burned in 1852. Work began in 1875 it was completed in 1894 and consecrated as St. James Cathedral being the patron of the parish that it served.
However in 1955 at the request of Cardinal Paul-Emile Leger it was rededicated by Pope Benedict XV to Mary, Queen of the world. There have been a number of restoration works. In 2003 the enclosed porch and esplanade were restored. Another restoration in 2005 was the work done to Bishop Ignace Bourget’s statue on the outside of the building.
The Bishop’s Mortuary was completed in 1935, this was dedicated to Bishop Bourget where lays his tomb. The walls and floors are made from Italian marble.
The Chapel of the Assumption has a beautiful wood carved altar with gold leaf decoration. There is a wonderful painting of Our Lady painted in the 17th cent by a Spanish monk (unknown). The altar itself was discovered by Rololphe Messmer, an Austrian architect in France. He donated to the cathedral in 1994.
The Ciborium which covers the altar and is located under the dome was created in Rome in 1900 by Joseph-Arthur Vincent and is a reproduction of the famous one in St. Peter’s in Rome.
The Statues which atop the roof of the Cathedral represent the thirteen parishes of Montreal and again imitate those on St. Peter’s in Rome.
There are many treasures to see whilst there, there are many paintings, beautiful stained glass window and panels. The Great Organ was built by Casavant Freres and installed in 1893. The company also did the maintenance work in the 1950’s.
A truly wonderful Cathedral to visit.
A piece of trash that we keep preciously as a memory. So thin line.
Those are traditional rural leather shoes from Balkans (those ones are from Bosnia). Those are the ones that belonged to my daughter at the age of one year. So the smallest ones made. They were made as tourist souvenir but she wear
them until hole was made.
