The Taj Mahal Palace Hotel is a "Heritage Grand" class five-star hotel located in the Colaba region of Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, next to the Gateway of India. Historically it was known as the "Taj Mahal Hotel" or the "Taj Palace Hotel".[4] or simply "the Taj". The hotel's original building was commissioned by Tata and first opened its doors to guests on 16 December 1903.
It is widely believed that Jamsetji Tata decided to build the hotel after he was refused entry to one of the city's grand hotels of the time, Watson's Hotel, as it was restricted to "whites only"...The Taj Mahal Tower, an additional wing of the hotel, was opened in 1973 - Wikipedia
Now for the pizza lover, it's rest, relaxation and a large chicken pizza. Who says hard work never pays off?
Caught in the act of blatant corruption!? (Just for the record, London happens to be one of the cleanest cities I have ever visited; a far cry from New York City, my (childhood) home town. The photo is entirely intended as tongue-in-cheek humor. I adore London!).
Refusing to accept that it's winter! :P

"When I stand before God at the end of my life,
I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left and I could say,
"I used everything that you gave me.""

i am following that advice.. although my camera may be on its last leg. i refuse to not use it, i refuse to back down on its use because of "what ifs." for tomorrow is not a promise, right? i am not going to miss capturing these moments because of when i think it will die. if it dies, it dies, but i won't have any regrets, right down to my last shutter click!!
"The flowers you gave me are rotting,
And still I refuse to throw them away.
Some of the bulbs never opened quite fully
They might so I'm waiting and staying awake.
Things I have loved I'm allowed to keep
I'll never know if I go to sleep."

One of my favourites from this exhibition. Her badge reads "It's time". I love the clean lines and strong graphic qualities. And of course, the strong colours.

One of few daylight refuse train runs, this pickup runs from 38th Street Yard to Jamaica (179th St or Parsons/Archer Aves) via the West End, Culver, Crosstown, and Queens Boulevard Lines collecting trash from stations along the way.

Week 38: Mirrored Water Reflections
We were away at a cabin South of the Finger Lakes celebrating our 20th Anniversary and we happened to be right across the way from a marsh. So we went for a short walk so I could tackle the challenge.
I took many shots of reeds and other plant life reflected in the water, but this bucket intrigued me more.

Saint Maria Goretti (1890 to 1902)
"For the love of Jesus I forgive him, and I want him to be with me in heaven" Feast Day: 6 July
Maria Goretti was the Italian teenager who refused to compromise her sexual purity to a lustful acquaintance of her family, a man who eventually brutally murdered her. He eventually converted to Christianity by her witness, and amazingly stood by Maria's mother at the canonisation. As a martyr or "witness" to chastity in the 20th century she provides a wonderful example of the simple and powerful victory of Christ in a world that is so much in need of such testimony.
A patroness of youth, Maria Teresa Goretti was born in Corinaldo, Italy, in 1890. She was the second child of Luigi Goretti and Assunta Carlini; simple country folk struggling in financial poverty. In 1899, Luigi Goretti moved his family to le Ferriere di Conca, near modern Latina, where they lived in a building they shared with another family ' Signor Giovanni Serenelli and his teenage son, Alessandro.
After losing her father to malaria when she was just nine, Maria quickly developed great strength and maturity. She looked after the household and cared for her five younger siblings whilst her mother worked in the fields. Her iron-will became a key aspect contributing to her saintly martyrdom, as was the advice from her mother which she treasured in her soul, 'never commit sin at any cost'.
On 5 July, 1902, 19-year-old Alessandro Serenelli found 11 year-old Maria sewing alone watching over her sleeping baby sister, Teresa. After numerous failed attempts, Serenelli tried again to subdue Maria into a sexual relationship, threatening to kill her if she did not submit. Maria pleaded with Alessandro that he was risking eternal damnation.
Alessandro began choking Maria, who refused to surrender to him, insisting that she would rather die. Enraged, Alessandro stabbed little Maria 11 times. Barely alive, Maria crawled to the door as the assailant launched one more attack, stabbing her three more times.
Maria underwent surgery, but her injuries proved fatal. The following day, the parish priest of Nettuno brought her Viaticum (Holy Communion at the hour of death) and asked whether she forgave Alessandro. "Yes! Yes!" she replied, "For the love of Jesus I forgive him, and I want him to be with me in heaven!"
On 6 July, after 20 hours of painful suffering, Maria died.
Alessandro Serenelli received 30 years in jail, living the first eight showing no signs of remorse for his crime. On 10 October, 1910 Alessandro revealed that, as he lay on his prison bunk, Maria Goretti appeared to him in a dream and handed him white lilies which turned into flames in his arms. Soon after, he admitted his guilt and his victim's innocence and virtue.
Declared a saint on 24 June, 1950 by Pope Pius XII, both Maria's mother and murderer were present at her canonisation.
Though only young, St Maria Goretti exhibited the gifts of right judgement and fear of the Lord. WYD08 pilgrims can pray to this young girl for the grace to live modestly, with pure affection and love in your relationships.
Saint Maria Goretti, witness to chastity and forgiveness - pray for us

NOT ALL VIOLETS are BLUE…
Roses are red
Violets are????
I refuse to be blue!
The viola is a large family containing 500 species,they are on record in Greece from the 4th century B.C.
Later in Europe, it was discovered that a plant similar to a viola grew in open areas. The plant found mostly in fields and amongst rocks in the Alps, hence Alpine.
It became known as a wild pansy (French:pensÈe). It might have been a romantic Frenchman who 'named' it... A pensÈe can be a thought or a saying, short or it can be as long as a paragraph, a page, a poem!
Maybe he thought of his loved-one, dried one amongst some book he carried? Juste une pensÈe... lol.
These delicately fragrant flowers come in a wonderful variety of colours. The dark centres in some flowers are thought to resemble little faces.
These are a smaller variety (a flower not much bigger than my thumbnail!), that I have in the garden, I could not resist photographing them in the studio...
As always, thanx for your lovely comments and thoughts, M, (*_*)
