“Life is about connection, not perfection.”
― Luke Taylor

Beautiful morning sunlight illuminates the marshland at Falkenburg, Ont., as a trio of Canadian National EMDs charge Toronto to North Bay train no. 451 along the scenic, albeit often overlooked, Newmarket Subdivision. With tonnage for the ONR, trains 451/450 essentially serve as CN's connection to the North. Linking the big city with the far reaches of Ontario over a system that spans more than 650-miles from North Bay to as far north as Moosonee, west to Hearst, and east to Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, who knows where these cars will go from here! If one thing is for sure though, with the slightest hint of autumn in the air and the blackflies (mostly) at bay, you really can't beat a late summer's morning trackside in this neck of the woods.
During Krishna Janmashtami celebrations in India, young boys partake in a cherished tradition of adorning blue paint to emulate Lord Krishna, a revered deity in Hindu mythology. Lord Krishna, often depicted with blue skin, represents divinity, compassion, and playfulness. His birth anniversary, Janmashtami, is marked by various rituals and festivities, including reenactments of his life events.
Krishna's mythology is rich with tales of his divine exploits, teachings, and playful antics as a cowherd in Vrindavan. He is celebrated for his wisdom, compassion, and unwavering devotion to righteousness, as depicted in sacred texts like the Bhagavad Gita and the Bhagavata Purana. Through Janmashtami celebrations and practices like wearing blue paint, devotees reaffirm their connection to Lord Krishna and seek to embody his virtues of love, devotion, and righteousness in their own lives.
The Sapphire by the Gardens building project on Victoria Street/Exhibition Street opposite the Carlton Gardens soars above the venerable trees. The building comprises 2 towers (60 stories) connected by this golden bridging structure. One is a residential tower, the other a hotel (Shangri-la), along with 10 levels of shops etc. When finished it will dominate the gardens. Using my Lensbaby. The nearby street light was positioned in just the wrong place to get a clear close up shot. www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/sapphire-by-the-gardens-3.... www.sapphirebythegardens.com.au/
For the person who is celebrating life today..who loves bridges and light..whose immense talent of capturing such beauty i cannot replicate..but still I try because of his encouragement.. Happy Birthday 🎂 dear Lucian!
Sheffield Park and Garden is owned by the National Trust. The original landscaping was done by Capability Brown in the 18th century, but the woodland garden was developed in the early 20th century with trees from many different countries. I love our native trees, but they lack reds in the Autumn, so I always enjoy visiting Sheffield Park, where I can lose myself in wonderful, vibrant colour.
just another example! And yet we constantly fall in the mindtrap that we are single separate entities...
The Nachtigall colliery is located at the entrance to the idyllic Muttental in Witten. Ruhr mining began here more than 300 years ago. First, horizontal tunnels were driven into the mountain to get to the “black gold”, and then vertical shafts.
Double exposure with a photo of spider web at the sunlight, and the little plant named Magic carpet/ Polygonum capitatum. "Tapete inglês" in our idiom.
I'm glad that the official resident of the cobweb has gone away. :))
I suggest you zoom the photo. 👍
