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 Infinity symbol. At first, I had a very difficult time to find an infinity symbol in my props… but then there was this elastic orange hair band laying on the floor in front of me. And since I’m lazy I wasn’t about to pick it up (especially that my house is a total mess right now because of our renovations) until I noticed that it was a perfect Infinity symbol ! Isn’t that great ? Of course, turning an orange elastic band into a levitating infinity symbol was another problem but I’m pretty much satisfied with the results. And I truly hope it will make you smile !!
Juste for your information: I have lots of things going on in my personal life right now and due to our renovations going super fast my « photo studio » (aka coffee table) and all my props had to take a vacation and all of my stuff is currently in my bathtub (yes, people !! The struggle is real, there is virtually no free space left in my house … event the bathtub is full of stuff !! And yes, we did put a cork in, just in case !!). So I’m will not be able to publish daily anymore (which makes me truly sad since I got truly attached to all your awesome comments, support and this amazing community…). For now, I will be officially on « vacation » from Flickr (but it isn’t by choice …). I will try to publish as soon as possible. Until then : stay well and safe my friends !!
Have a beautiful day !! Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!

The Konark Sun Temple. An ancient architecture built in 13th century, was dedicated to God 'Sun'. With twelve pairs of gigantic sundials, ornamented chariots and classical arts, carved over the stone walls, its a cool place to recall Indian history. Also once was known as Black Pagoda to Europeans as the ships passing through near by used to experience destruction of their navigation systems because of humongous magnetic supports of the temple.
Simply its a perfect composition of engineering, astronomy and fine art !!!
I am so lucky to have two kids that absolutely adore each other. They are also very creative, so I did not even have to ask to make this love symbol for me. I love them dearly.
I really dislike people being trained on a single decker. You need to have the awareness of a high vehicle, so you are looking for overhanging trees etc - and signs on bridges!

Helios 44M-7 at F2 plus a 2x teleconverter. I have photographed this wooden figurine before. As an object, its nature is trivial and some might call it kitsch. To me, it has its enigmatic fascination. It popped up right at the beginning, when I met the woman who would become my wife. Difficult to put into words what goes on inside. Associations like 'home', 'protection' and 'intimacy' well up. The totally unsubstantiated feeling, you know, that, 'in the end, everything will be alright'. Symbols work this way, signposts to a world that is (eventually) in order.

Le laurier, avec son feuillage persistant suggère l'éternité. Depuis l'époque romaine, il est aussi associé à la gloire, mais comme il s'agit d'une tombe féminine du 19e siècle, je ne suis pas sûre que ce voeu d'éternité fasse référence à une gloire de la jeune femme.
Die eucharistischen Fische sind ein verbreitetes Bildmotiv der frühchristlichen Kunst und als Wandmalereien anzutreffen.Das (I·Ch·Th·Y·S-)Symbol besteht aus zwei gekrümmten Linien, die einen Fisch darstellen.
The ichthys or ichthus is a symbol consisting of two intersecting arcs, the ends of the right side extending beyond the meeting point so as to resemble the profile of a fish. The symbol was adopted by early Christians as a secret symbol. It is now known colloquially as the "sign of the fish" or the "Jesus fish".
