Woolwich Arsenal station Elizabeth line.
The historic site of the Royal Arsenal in Woolwich was once a walled off private world that saw the manufacture of guns and explosives, munitions testing, a military academy and the production of medals and other civilian goods.
The new Elizabeth line station named after the late Queen is helping to transform Woolwich, supporting regeneration, reducing journey times and creating new transport links for local people.
A 276-metre-long box station sits below a major housing development site. Set back from the main street and surrounded by a series of heritage-listed buildings and a large retail unit, the station acts as a simple portal connecting all these elements together. The minimalist, straightforward design provides entry into the station from a single 30-metre wide bronze-clad portal. The bronze cladding features a rifling pattern reminiscent of the cannons which were cast on the Arsenal site.

My pink 'Queen Elizabeth' hybrid tea rose, at the Roxborough Park Rose Gardens, Baulkham Hills, north-western Sydney.
This variety of hybrid tea rose is very highly awarded, having won the AARS (All American Rose Selection Award) in 1955, ARS (American Rose Society) Gold Medal in 1957 and the prestigious Golden Rose of The Hague in 1968. It was inducted into the World Rose Hall of Fame in 1979.
And, of-course, it now grows in the Hills District of Sydney!!

Taken for the Macro Monday theme of stamp. As it is the Queen's platinum jubilee this year thought it was appropriate to post one of her silver jubilee! HMM!
All across the South West of England beacons were lit tonight to celebrate the 90th Birthday of Queen Elizabeth. The image depics the last embers towards the end of the evening.

The Queen Elizabeth Botanical Gardens is located close to the Mountain View Cemetery, that I was also visiting. Over a two day period, both were targeted, while the weather cooperated. The most vivid colors tend to avail themselves given this time of year. But, it is also the light delivered that aids in revealing what is available.
Choosing to shoot just after the rain, and with dark clouds above, can give saturated colors. Soil is dark, wet leaves give their strongest colors, cloudy skies help prevent harsh shadows. The right combination of various weather features, help provide a marvellous opportunity to capture Autumn's best.
Handheld unsharpness, I was using the maximum zoom on the camera as binoculars to verify the name of the cruise ship moored way out in Weymouth Bay ... but photo taken when I saw a lone figure ... the only person I've seen on one of perhaps a dozen different huge passenger ships marking time out in the bay during this pandemic
Ken & I watched Queen Elizabeth's funeral and felt so sad. I think her funeral was as grand as her coronation was. What a way to go out. She was a grand lady! RIP HRH
As a modern monarch, Her Majesty Queen Lilibet, Queen of all the Bears, knows that even when she is relaxing at Bearingham Palace, she may be called on at a moment’s notice to meet important guests like foreign dignitaries or her Bear Minister, Grizzly Sunak. Therefore, she finds her double string of pearls, a gift from her own Papa Bear, and a smart brooch to match her outfit to be the perfect accessories to wear when greeting any guest. They can lift an ensemble, dazzle the eye and impress with their simple beauty and elegance.
The theme for "Smile on Saturday" on the 4th of March is "wearing jewellery". This theme left me with many options, but the one that immediately sprung to mind was to use my new Merrythought Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II Celebration Bear, released in a limited edition of 1,926 worldwide (she is number 10) in honour of the life of Her Majesty, whom I pre-ordered last year, but only recently arrived a few weeks ago. Beautifully crafted in the United Kingdom, this limited edition collectable bear has been carefully brought to life by the Merrythought team using the finest dusky-pink mohair plush and soft cotton velvet. Her left hind paw has been embroidered in gold thread to indicate Her Majesty’s lifetime, whilst deep blue eyes and hand-stitched smile give this bear an air of friendliness and integrity, synonymous with our former monarch. Her high quality outfit is inspired by Her Majesty’s favourite style of coat and hat, in the bold royal blue colour that she wore so often to public engagements. Her felted hat is accessorised with pretty organza flower detailing, co-ordinating perfectly with an elegant string pearl necklace. However, the real showpiece is the detailed replica of the Prince Albert Brooch that is pinned to her fully-lined woollen coat. The original gold-set sapphire and diamond piece of jewellery was given to Queen Victoria by her husband-to-be, Prince Albert, and went on to become Queen Elizabeth’s brooch of choice for many royal occasions. I hope you like Her Majesty as my choice for the theme this week, and that she makes you smile.
The wallpaper in the background is William Morris’ 1875 “Marigold” pattern. The sofa is a 1:6 replica of a Georgian piece made by high end miniature makers JBM. The chest is an early Nineteenth Century Regency fruitwood Anglo Indian perfume box with brass inlay and silver legs. On its top stands an Eighteenth Century Satsuma chrysanthemum vase.
I would like to acknowledge and thank my Flickr Friend Red Stilletto www.flickr.com/photos/thevixen/ for inspiring me to use the pairing of two images and the application of a wide white frame. Both of these design elements she uses to create great impact with her own images.

Rose 'Queen Elizabeth' in our garden - Frankfurt-Nordend
She graced our river in 2021 and we all are hoping she will be back soon.
We all are also hoping for peace in our dangerous world, so after the disruptions of Covid we can get back to something approaching normality.
3 Ocean Liners moored off Bournemouth due to the Covid pandemic. I wasn't sure about how blue the light was that evening, i intended to shoot for black and white, however, i think this is quite pleasing to the eye.

I'm stampolina and I love to take photos of stamps. Thanks for visiting this pages on flickr.
I'm neither a typical collector of stamps, nor a stamp dealer. I'm only a stamp photograph. I'm fascinated of the fine close-up structures which are hidden in this small stamp-pictures. Please don't ask of the worth of these stamps - the most ones have a worth of a few cents or still less.
By the way, I wanna say thank you to all flickr users who have sent me stamps! Great! Thank you! Someone sent me 3 or 5 stamps, another one sent me more than 20 stamps in a letter. It's everytime a great surprise for me and I'm everytime happy to get letters with stamps inside from you!
thx, stampolina
For the case you wanna send also stamps - it is possible. (...I'm pretty sure you'll see these stamps on this photostream on flickr :) thx!

Queen Elizabeth came to Winnipeg in 2010 and so I ran down to our Government House in the hopes of catching a glimpse... her car was coming down the road way and I was perched on top of a fence... I could have run up to the car, but decided to behave and try and a catch a glimpse of her Majesty... she did see me and waved... I smiled back...
Monday we went to Black River Marsh to spend time in nature. When we came back to the parking lot we saw this car with a cardboard cutout in the rear passenger side window. How could I not capture the moment for posterity?
I bought this from Neil Kerber (from Private Eye)- I thought it was funny.
I got an OBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours in October. I think Neil Kerber probably offers one of these cartoons to everyone in the honours list that he can find an email address for. Anyway I liked it enough to grab the bait and buy it as a print. I will eventually find a spot on the wall for it! Nice to have something fun to remember the OBE.
Goodness knows when the inauguration ceremony will ever be. ...Sometime the other side of Covid for sure. ...looking forward to it.
