Happy wonderfully wide window Wednesday.
I found a big window again (after 2 years) at the supermarket yesterday. I've been getting irritated at only having small ones in houses. Although I do have the shop windows I could use - if I'd only remembered.
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :O)

Window Wednesday
This is one of the upstairs windows in the barn. That's the neighbour's maple tree outside.

The ledge below used to hold paperweights and is now for plants and an occasional visit by our boy rescue kitty, who likes to check out the flora and fauna of the suburbs.
The ‘valance’ above is a gorgeous glass art piece from a dear one who knows me so well!! I’ll see if I can find a picture of it in my archives shot during the day. If you’re on FB, it is art of my cover.
The newspaper, the Yorkshire Herald is long gone but this fine building, along the waterfront of the River Ouse in York still exists. Now a cinema and restaurant it was busy today with many wanting to eat on the terrace above the water.
We've never seen such a gorgeous arrangement of gourds and pumpkins. Even the side of the shed was an eye stopper!
Happy Window Wednesday, Everyone!
However would I know the days of the week if it weren't for these groups!
The other week we went on a cruise over to the former penal settlement on St. Helena Island in Moreton Bay, off Brisbane. I have already posted some shots and have some more to come, I am hopeless at series most of the time as I like to mix my shots up.
The former penal settlement still has quite a few of the old jail and support buildings partly standing. This was part of one of the jail block and at least had a nice view out of the window, especially for Window Wednesday.
This shot is really more about the aged textures of that old wall inside rather than the lawn beyond.

For Window Wednesday. Windows in Maspalomas, Gran Canaria.
Back from holiday and trying to catch up. HWW everyone.
The entrance to WAG - Washington Avenue Grill - in White Rock, BC, Canada. Not sure why Ms. Liberty is on the roof - or why she's sporting a Vancouver Canucks' hockey jersey? The Canucks are the closest team, but I sort of thought she would be a NY Islanders fan. Maybe she lost a bet? 🤔

After our son's graduation he led us to a Starbucks just off campus. As we entered I noticed this woman at the window.
Happy Window Wednesday!
Captured in the Russellville Park courtyard and processed for Window Wednesday. HWW everyone!

Crossing over from the garage through the 3rd floor enclosed crossover leading to Innovation Tower for rehab. Happy Window Wednesday, Peeps. Looking through window, out a window, at lots of windows!

Statue of Willy Brandt at the atrium of the Willy-Brandt-Haus (the party headquartes of the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) which was designed by Helge Bofinger and built between 1993 and 1999) in Berlin-Kreuzberg. Willy Brandt (born on 18 December 1913 as Herbert Ernst Karl Frahm in Lübeck; he died on 8 October 1992) was the leader of the SPD from 1964 to 1987, the fourth chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany) from 1969 to 1974, and the first social-democratic chancellor since 1930. From 1957 to 1966 he also was Governing Mayor of Berlin (West).
Fearing prosecution by the Nazis because of his socialist work and publications during the time of the Weimar Republic and his membership of the SPD and later (from 1931) the SAPD (Socialist Worker's Party of Germany), which was banned by the Nazi regime, he fled to Norway. There he took on the pseudonym of Willy Brandt to avoid detection by Nazi agents, and formerly adopted that name in 1948. Brandt returned to Germany in 1945 as a correspondent for Scandinavian newspapers to report about the Subsequent Nuremberg trials; in 1948 he officially regained the German citizenship. In 1971 Brandt received the Nobel Peace Prize for his "efforts to strengthen cooperation in western Europe through the EEC and to achieve reconciliation between West Germany and the countries of Eastern Europe" (Wikipedia).
The 3,40 m (11,1549 inches) high statue of Willy Brandt was created by German musician and sculptorist Rainer Fetting (*1949) who lives in Berlin and New York. By the way, "Gerechtigkeit" (the word in white capital letters) means justice.
HWW and Happy Hump Day, Everyone, and have a great rest of the week ahead!
Willy der Große
Diese 3,40 Meter hohe und über 500 kg schwere Statue von Willy Brandt, geschaffen vom Musiker und Bildhauer Rainer Fetting (*1949 in Wilhelmshaven), steht im Atrium des Willy-Brandt-Hauses in Berlin-Kreuzberg. Da das Laowa seine Stärken besonders bei extremeren Blickwinkeln auszuspielen scheint, hatte ich hier mein kleines Tischstativ mit, um halbwegs bequem und verwacklungssicher Fotos aus einem möglichst tiefen Blickwinkel machen zu können. Fotografiert als Drei-Aufnahmen-Belichtungsreihe. Sabine.R und ich waren vor unserem jüngsten Stammtischtreffen (siehe vorheriges Foto) noch einmal dort gewesen, nachdem wir das Willy-Brandt-Haus bereits im Juli bei einem Flickr-Treffen mit A_Peach, --Conrad-N--, preze, mmsig, Moni E, marionrosengarten und Heiko Röbke besucht hatten.
Ich wünsche Euch einen schönen Feiertag morgen, liebe Flickr-Freunde!
This could also be called the elephant, the kuril and the chair! The artwork at the Gallery of Modern Art in Brisbane is known as “The World Turns” and consists of an elephant turned onto its head, a kuril nearby (native water rate) and even the bronze chair to the left. It’s a long and interesting story and it’s probably better to read it in this entertaining link -

This Window Wednesday shot was taken from inside and upstairs at GOMA during the week as evidenced by the school students having lunch below. That’s the Brisbane River flowing by on the left hand side, the city is just across the river from here.
Here is a closer shot of the elephant and the kuril. Elephants are scared of mice aren’t they, no wonder it’s doing head stands!
