Tribute To Audrey Hepburn
Thanks to Fabs for her kindness and patience
A last tribute to my dear father-in-law, who passed away in his sleep last weekend. He had been ill for some time.
He was very fond of gardening, so instead of flowers I folded some butterflies, representing his children and grandchildren.
We will miss him very much.
I will also be absent from Flickr for the rest of this week. Take care and see you later.
Aviccii - Wake me up

Aviccii was the third Swedish celebrity who died within a couple of weeks. He was the most well known of them, outside Sweden. Only 28 y.o... but one of the biggest.
Flowers left on the step of a beach hut on the coast at Southend. Leaves me with so many questions as to who they are for. I like the bold primary colours of the hut and flowers and the sand attached to them from the beach.
From the General Public seen beneath the stature of Queen Victoria to mark the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II . Seen in Victoria Square in Hull City Centre ..
Needed to have an image related to the Queens passing in my stream. I thought this was quite respectfully done.
Thanks for visiting.....
The two strong beams of light resembling the Twin Towers' descent toward the heavens, they serve as a beacon of contemplation and reflection. The Tribute in Light has become a powerful international symbol of 9/11 for more than a decade.
Thank you for your comments.

Tonight in Sydney.
Monday, 15th April, 2024.
The Sydney Opera House sails are lit up tonight with a black ribbon, to honour the victims of the tragedy at Bondi.
I travelled into the city after work this evening to capture the Opera House with its black ribbon.
The parking gods were smiling because I scored a car-space along Hickson Road, right outside the Park Hyatt Hotel (who does that?), then walked a short distance to the Overseas Passenger Terminal where, near the Quay Restaurant (closed tonight, I noted) you get a great vantage point looking out across Sydney harbour to the Opera House.
But then, I returned to the car, to hear on the news that in western Sydney tonight there has been another mass stabbing. Good grief - what is going on? This time a Christian priest and multiple worshippers were stabbed at Christ The Good Shepherd Church, in the western Sydney suburb of Wakeley (near Fairfield).
Unbelievable, given the events at Bondi just two day's ago.
Anyway, back to the black ribbon. It was, I thought, I grand tribute to those who lost their lives on Saturday at Bondi.

I repost this today because it was Dean's favorite place to be,
and therefore the photo he liked best from my photostream.
Thanks again, Jon Herb, for letting us use your very moving words, I'll Be There. The aptness was unbelievable. Hugs.
Yesterday we lost Jane Goodall, primatologist and conservationist, who was a tireless advocate for the protection and restoration of the natural world. She did extraordinary work studying Chimpanzees by immersing herself in their world from the inside for months on end. Our paths crossed when we served on the Board of a medical institution in East Africa in the late 1990s and early 2000s. She was a remarkable woman!
Yesterday, an incredible concert in the middle of the province of Lower Saxony

Sooner or later, even our closest companions must leave us and make their own way into the great eternity. The grief is very hard to bear, but I tell myself that this way we get to love more of them in our lifetime.
My deepest sympathies for the sudden loss of sweet Dee.
Claudia & Blanca
...He was faithful, sweet and handsome. He filled our hearts with love. Our family and friends were blessed to have him in our lives. Cancer not only enters the bodies of man, but also in our loving precious pets...at times, it was as though we were his pets.
Someone left the rose in place and I took the picture when he went. I made the composition of the picture as I could. Hence, it is not good. A real place.
One must have a mind of winter
To regard the frost and the boughs
Of the pine-trees crusted with snow;
And have been cold a long time
To behold the junipers shagged with ice,
The spruces rough in the distant glitter
Of the January sun; and not to think
Of any misery in the sound of the wind,
In the sound of a few leaves,
Which is the sound of the land
Full of the same wind
That is blowing in the same bare place
For the listener, who listens in the snow,
And, nothing himself, beholds
Nothing that is not there and the nothing that is.
-- Wallace Stevens
