Thankyou all so much! Dave :)
No PS used here (I do not have it anyway!) I would have edited out the vapour trail and the trees if I did perhaps!
At the peak of tulip mania, in March 1637, some single tulip bulbs sold for more than 10 times the annual income of a skilled craftsman.
In an auction held in Holland in February 1637, 99 lots of tulip bulbs fetched a staggering 90,000 guilders, more than $3.5 million in today's money. Tulipomania had reached its height, and its story is told in just one of the fascinating sections of Anna Pavord's wonderful book on this most seductive of flowers.
I can highly recommend the facinating book "The Tulip by Anna Pavord"
you can imagine the strangle looks I got when I went bazonkers underneath some flowers!!!!

Explore outside your box and find all kind of new worlds!
That was kind of the idea behind this shot.
I ended up with dog poop on my shoe and pants.
Bleh... but at least I explored ;)

Got up at sunrise and this lovely sun was here. So that made my morning because it's been raining here forever. But then the fog covered the sun and filled the entire mountain so you couldn't see anything. So that was a bit of a poop.
I just love the light on these flowers. Not sure if flowerly is a word either but we'll just coin one right here!! St.John's, NL. AND thanks for all the comments and great support and thanks David at Explore. Cheers.
Happy December first! Where did the month go? I go back so school tomorrow...So sad. I felt like the fall break was only like a day long...
I saw Catching Fire again because I'm badly obsessed. I started going back on my HG IG account again & I'm on there like every second xD.
Have a wonderful day!

Hagia Sophia
Hagia Sophia (Turkish: Ayasofya, Greek: Αγία Σοφία; "Holy Wisdom", Latin: Sancta Sophia or Sancta Sapientia) is a former patriarchal basilica, later a mosque, now a museum in Istanbul, Turkey. Famous in particular for its massive dome, it is considered the epitome of Byzantine architecture. It was the largest cathedral ever built in the world for nearly a thousand years, until the completion of the Seville Cathedral in 1520. The current building was originally constructed as a church between A.D. 532 and 537 on the orders of the Byzantine Emperor Justinian, and was in fact the third Church of the Holy Wisdom to occupy the site (the previous two had both been destroyed by riots). It was designed by two architects, Isidore of Miletus and Anthemius of Tralles. The Church contained a large collection of holy relics and featured, among other things, a 50 foot (15 m) silver iconostasis. It was the patriarchal church of the Patriarch of Constantinople and the religious focal point of the Eastern Orthodox Church for nearly 1000 years.
In 1453, Constantinople was conquered by the Ottoman Turks and Sultan Mehmed II ordered the building to be converted into the Ayasofya Mosque. The bells, altar, iconostasis, and sacrificial vessels were removed, and many of the mosaics were eventually plastered over. The Islamic features — such as the mihrab, the minbar, and the four minarets outside — were added over the course of its history under the Ottomans. It remained as a mosque until 1935, when it was converted into a museum by the Republic of Turkey.
For almost 500 years the principal mosque of Istanbul, Hagia Sophia served as a model for many of the Ottoman mosques such as the Sultan Ahmed Mosque (Blue Mosque of Istanbul), the Şehzade Mosque, the Süleymaniye Mosque, and the Rüstem Pasha Mosque.
Although it is sometimes referred to as Saint Sophia (Greek for wisdom), the Greek name in full is Ναός τῆς Ἁγίας τοῦ Θεοῦ Σοφίας, Church of the Holy Wisdom of God, and it was dedicated to the Holy Wisdom of God rather than a specific saint named Sophia.

She didn't hear me coming. Notice how her face is turned away from Missi, she didn't want her to know she was having a quick beauty nap.
