Found a couple of newly born Lapwings on a field. The mother was not glad seeing me in front of them and became a bit nervous so I've kept some distance and tried not to disturb them.
Lying on the ground with the camera in front of me suddenly one of them popped up of just a couple of meters next to me. Quickly turned the camera around and took 3 shots through the grass before he jumped back...

Taken during the Easter Vigil mass. I love the symbolism of being in total darkness to reflect on Jesus's death, followed by his rebirth. Even if you are not religious, the ceremony is very beautiful and moving. If you look closely, you can see that some of they younger parishioner mesmerized by the fire of the candles.
As usual, better for the eyes and soul in the light box.

This was from a slide taken on Easter Sunday in 1957 (April 21) in the backyard of my aunt and uncle. In this shot are my sister Linda, my cousin Diane, yours truly, and my Aunt Hattie. Remember when all the "girls" used to wear hats or bonnets on Easter? Next stop—church.
Hollókő village in North Hungary is a Unesco Heritage Site ,I went see how they celebrate Easter . On this day ladies get watered down here .Most time the water went on the viewers !
Egg no. 3 is clearly from one of our Easter Eggers! I mostly suspect Bebe Glazer or Matilda. I am also angling for some sort of nest box cam. ;)
The Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception
Washington, D.C.
This photo was taken two Sundays after Easter of 2019 with the flowers of the holy day still on display.
I am sure that the faithful would ordinarily fill the church for Easter services, but, sadly, this year the basilica will necessarily be empty.
If you viewed my last posting taken from the back of the basilica, this is the view at the end of that long aisle.
The Basilica is indeed uplifting for both the spirit and the eye. It is located a short distance from the U.S. Capitol building on the grounds of the Catholic University of America.
The Basilica is the largest Catholic church in North America. Construction was started during 1920 and was not completed until 2017 (with the completion of the mosaic for the Trinity Dome). The structure design is classified as Romanesque-Byzantine and is constructed entirely of stone, brick, tiles and mortar with no steel framing. The colorful domes and archways are all mosaics with the Trinity dome alone having more than 14 million pieces of Venetian glass covering more than 18,300 square feet. The basilica contains more than 80 chapels and has the largest collection of contemporary ecclesiastic art in the world.
The facility is open to those of all faiths with free parking across the street. It has been visited by Pope Francis, Pope Benedict XVI and Saint Pope John Paul II.
Tripods are not permitted without prior permission and the structure and art are protected by copywrite.

I've been trying for a couple weeks to figure out what I wanted to do for Easter cupcakes. I could never decided on one design, so I had fun doing several different styles.
All chocolate cupcakes with either vanilla or chocolate cream cheese frosting.
(To give credit where it's due, the ones with the gold bunnies are a Bakerella design)
Using natrual colors to get yellow eggs (curcumin)m green eggs (chlorophyll) and red/purple eggs (carmine). I've used commercial dye. The ones I have made on my own were very pale in color.

Been some great looking easter eggs in the shops this year and this was one of my favourites. Happy Scrabble Sunday Easter.
