In the Senate Chamber, at the east end of the Centre Block, red carpeting and upholstery and a ceiling of gold leaf create an air of regal splendour to signify the place where our Head of State meets Parliament. The names of former governors general are carved in the ceiling. The Chamber’s upper walls are lined with murals depicting stirring scenes from the First World War. Below them, images of Canada’s flora and fauna are carved in stone and wood.

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA... during long weekend (5 days) containing two days of public holidays in Poland

 

The view from Accademia bridge in Venice was probably my favourite. Just wonderful, with the Palazzo Cavalli-Franchetti in the foreground and the magnificent Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute in the distance. Especially nice at dawn with only a handful of other people on it!

When you are on the street, you are my superstar!

Everytime I see this picture, it gives me a feeling of calmness like none other!

I noticed how the light was hitting the lovely bouquet that was in my condo recently. It was a gift from Marcus, my son and Ediana, his lady. Set of 4

 

Thanks for your generous comments, faves and awards. Stay blessed and happy Sunday! Best seen large by clicking on the photo.

I guess this one won't end up in a children's book, LOL, so I am sharing it with a wish to all my Canadian friends to enjoy the long Victoria Day weekend; but if you drink, do it responsibly, and don't drive. :-)

One of my all time favs from archive. Hope you like it :-)

K2 (& Kennedy) Consider Duck Hunting Opportunities On Tampa Bay Beach Florida - IMRAN™

K2 and Kennedy were very interested in exploring duck hunting, or at least bird chasing, opportunities when we walked back home this morning. K2 even started looking at stepping down options along the seawall rocks.

I stopped them. I also managed to take a picture of them on the upper rocks, as well as this one. K2, wistfully gazing at the ducks.

But don’t “jump to conclusions”…. The story didn’t conclude there…. !

TGIF, finally! Today is a chill day for me, I’m so glad I didn’t have to go to work. I’m looking forward to 4th of July celebration, it’s time for barbecue and fireworks! It’s also my grandmother’s 92nd birthday so it’s a double celebration. Quality time with family, great food and lots of sunshine to enjoy on my 3-day weekend sounds like a lot of fun, yay!!

 

Happy nifty fifty Friday and have a fantastic weekend dear friends! Be safe in whatever you do! :)

 

Hit Front Page Explore. Thanks everyone!

 

On the run! This little red squirrel was running along the fence between our daughter's home and her neighbours when I grabbed the shot. Mike asked if they followed me here LOL

I want to thank you for taking the time to visit my little space here on Flickr.

Hurrah for a long weekend! We have a day off today at work and while I don't celebrate Easter (or any other religious holidays for that matter), I am planning to thoroughly enjoy this extra day. Starting now: coffee, brie, pears and - yes - flickr...

In large if you wish.

 

or as Emily Dickinson more eloquently put it, "God calls home the angels promptly/ At the setting sun."

 

The Dog on the Tuckerbox is an Australian historical monument and tourist attraction, located at Snake Gully, approximately five miles (eight kilometres) from Gundagai, New South Wales as described in the song of the same name.

 

The Dog on the Tuckerbox monument was erected in 1932 as part of 'Back to Gundagai' week, and a large crowd "gathered to her again" to witness the unveiling by Prime Minister Joseph Lyons on 28 November 1932. It was planned to donate money placed in the wishing well at the base of the monument to the Gundagai District Hospital. A souvenir shop was also opened nearby. Copyright on the monument was vested in the Gundagai Hospital, who for many years received a useful income from receipt of royalties from firms using the iconic image.

 

The statue was vandalised on 28 July 2019 by being dislodged from its plinth, suffering minor damage, and had its grand re-unveiling on 17 August 2019 following repairs.

This is one of the very few digital frames I shot over the long weekend. I put three rolls through the Holga and several more through the Horizon. It'll be a couple weeks before I have them processed, but I'm looking forward to the results. It's more film than I've shot in quite a while.

 

It looks a little grainy when viewed large on the interweb, but I don't have time right now to figure out why I'm having problems with color AND grain when uploading. Flickr, why are you failing me now? I swear I'm going to extend my pro membership. I just haven't gotten around to it...

 

Fixing the color killed my EXIF. Here it is, for those who care:

My long weekend will be a busy one, it actually started last night with a get-together with friends / Flickr friends which was a lot of fun as expected, dinner with sister in law tonight, an event to go to with friends / Flickr friends on Saturday afternoon, go out of town with in laws and hubby on Sunday and be back on Tuesday morning.

 

Another thing, a message was waiting for me when I got home last night - my application to be a mentor for underprivileged kids has been accepted so I will be doing lots of volunteer work for the comings days. I will be away for a while in Flickr and very excited to give back. I think of giving not as a duty but as a privilege. Have a good one y’all, see you when I return :)
