I was intrigued by the Gianmarco Lodi's photostream and particularily this picture caught my attention and coupled by this (and a lot of smoke) they made this composition.
Isn't it great how things turn out sometime. It was a dull and dreary Saturday morning, I really didn't have any plans and as I was heading out to do some shopping the phone rang.
"hey, you wan'na go to the Humber".
Of course I said yes, I would never refuse an invite to one of my favourite places to snapp off a few regardless of the weather, summer, winter, rain or shine. Shopping can wait. Like I said, it wasn't a particularly nice day, not a lot of sun, even a bit over-cast but to the Humber we went and I'm so happy we did.
After roaming the parklands and lagoons for a couple of hours without seeing anything too exciting, almost disappointedly we decided to leave the valley in search of something else to do for the rest of the day. We stopped at a picnic table down by the river to have some snacks and make an alternate plan.
Suddenly the sun came out and everything came to life, birds started flying all around, animals scurrying everywhere, fish jumping in the water, it was almost as if mother nature pushed the ON button and one of the most sudden transformations that I had ever experienced. From the mundane to the thrilling in the blink of an eye.
Needless to say our cameras started working overtime and just before the clouds came back, this magnificent creature landed on the far shore. What a surprise, what a fantastic surprise. I had seen this bird on a previous visit but never managed to get a decent shot. This time, it was ready to sit and pose with wings spread wide. What an actor, what a show-off, it absolutely made my day.
Once again, a trip to the Humber turned into a fantastic adventure, filled with unexpected surprises and everlasting memories.
Don't you just love it when a plan comes together.
I intend to read this book in its original outmoded solid physical book format.

Thanks for stoppin' by, a little memento from our trip to Black Creek Pioneer Village last summer. It's like stepping back in time to relive the days of early pioneers who settled this land two hundred years ago. On this occasion, it was the re-enactment of the year 1812, a time of tension between two neighboring nations, each ready to wage battle in order to reign supreme.
In this scene, the Informant is foretelling of a large enemy troop movement on the other side of the river, just south of the village, certainly a sure sign of confrontation.
The rest of course is history.

Thanks for stoppin’ by, always enjoy our visits. A little memento from the archives.
According to Duke Ellington, one of the greatest band leaders of all time, The Big Band Theory is… “it don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that swing”, the perfect theory when it comes to music, don’t you think. No matter what genre, it’s got’a swing, it’s got’a have a groove. Perfect indeed, works for me.
About the picture, what a class act, what a superb voice with all the right moves. Like I’ve said before, there is always that special someone that stands above the rest and she certainly got my attention. Wonderful performance, bravo! And the band “swung”, they cooked in fact, the place was jumping, people were dancing to some the greatest hits by the biggest names of that era.
They played; Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw, Lionel Hampton, Woody Herman, Ella Fitzgerald, Gene Krupa, Frank Sinatra, Count Basie, Billy Holiday, the list goes on.
Click the link to take a trip back in time, this is one of the earliest music videos [film] It’s a great bit of nostalgia for all you big band lovers in flickr'land.
Enjoy the Theory!

Detail from a monument to Edith Louisa Cavell (British nurse and patriot °Swardeston UK 4 December 1865 – ✝ Schaerbeek Belgium 12 October 1915) by Belgian sculptor/medalist Paul Du Bois (°Aywaille 1859 – ✝Uccle 1938).
Edith Cavell is celebrated for saving the lives of soldiers from both sides without distinction and in helping some 200 Allied soldiers escape from German-occupied Belgium during World War I, for which she was arrested. She was subsequently court-martialled, found guilty of treason and sentenced to death. Despite international pressure for mercy, she was shot by a German firing squad. Her execution received worldwide condemnation and extensive press coverage.

Greetings from Toronto.
Once again, the Festive Season is upon us, the perfect opportunity to wish you a Merry Christmas, a Happy New Year and Wonderful Holiday Celebrations with family and friends.
Enjoy!
Just had to share this. We went out Christmas shopping, well actually, Christmas window shopping, to get some ideas, I can never decide and always leave my buying to the last minute. But once my mind is made up, I’m rarin’ to go, I become a total shopaholic for a day. I look at it as an adventure, as I do most things in life.
I usually wait for the first big snow storm to hit the big smoke when the malls are empty, stores are empty, sales people bored to death just waiting for someone to walk through the door. I have had some of the best customer service experiences and met some of the nicest, most interesting people along the way. It has become a ritual for me to get it all done in one outing.
Ok ok, enough about me, back to the picture. We took a break from the maddening crowd and stopped for a Timmies, that’s Tim Hortons for those who are not familiar with one of our Canadian coffee traditions and addictions.
On our way out, there she was, decked out in her Santa hat, strutting along. Fabulous, what a find, time to pull out my toy, simply can’t miss this. I was lucky to get a few snaps but thought this one was most appropriate. A deep breath, a last moment of peace before entering the Arena.
Happy Holidays, best wishes always. Thanks for your visits throughout the year.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."
Ronald Reagan °1911-✞2004
Freedom is under attack. Now is the time to take that stand.

Every year, at about this time, I get to ride along with Santa and the crew to check out his latest red machine the elves meticulously prepared during summer months. I must say this year's model has a lot more deer power under the hood, it's a rocket ship, this thing flies. We always do a trial run in Stealth Mode before the big day so that Santa doesn't have any surprises en route, he's way too busy meeting all the kids, delivering presents.
The crew installed a whole lot'a new stuff this year. They added a tuned quad-exhaust and upgraded the stereo to 7.1, complete with Bluetooth headsets, WiFi plus video calling via skype, cool. They strapped on a new supercharger and connected a bunch of other electronic goodies which put a huge smile on the big guy's face. He too loves toys. He's really just a big kid at heart.
Anyway, when we left Toronto, we circled the CN Tower a couple of times and headed out over the lake, straight to the Big Apple. We were there in no time. After a few loops ‘round Lady Liberty, we flew out over the Atlantic. Next stop; London. We dropped in to visit Big Ben for a cup'a. Nice chap. Always good to see the ol' man. After that, it was on to Paris, Moscow, Berlin, Rome, Budapest, Cairo, Hong Kong, Tokyo, you get the idea. We visit every city, village, town and country and if I didn't mention yours, I apologize, the list is endless.
And great big special thanks to the elves responsible for designing, engineering and fabricating this mechanical wonder each year, they call themselves; “The munchelfkins Pit Crew”. I'm not sure why they picked that name, but hey, it's their team, they can name it anything they want. They are, after all, the number one pit crew on this planet and deserve the right to be recognized in any way they want. In their history of serving the big guy, they’ve won many inter-galactic championships, received countless awards for their expertise and had only one minor mechanical issue which did not in any way prevent or interfere with Santa's Christmas mission.
So here’s a big bravo to the munchelfkins. Great job, you've really outdone yours'elves. ha!
ps; love your new team uniforms and logo.

My grandson loves Godzilla. While he and I were playing with his toys one morning, I snapped a photo of his favorite Godzilla figurine with my iPhone to make a print for him. I loaded the best shot into my image editing software and began playing with filters and sliders to mimic an action movie vibe. Some of the tools were those I never use. Loads of fun. Feel free to vote this up or down in the comments. I can take it.
Overhead the albatross
Hangs motionless upon the air
And deep beneath the rolling waves
In labyrinths of coral caves
An echo of a distant time
Comes willowing across the sand
And everything is green and submarine.

2014 Beaches International Jazz Festival
Toronto, Ontario. Canada.
What an amazing talent. Bravo young lady, you are a rising star.
Hi everyone, great to be back, thanks for stoppin’ by, always enjoy our visits. Yet another awesome festival with brilliant sunshine and great music on the beach. It just gets bigger and better and this year we celebrated the 26th annual event with record attendance, a most diverse lineup of performers and thousands of music lovers converging from all corners of the globe.
There were many superb acts to please everyone’s taste in music, everything from traditional jazz to blues to big band to modern interpretations, personally, I love’m all. But as I’ve said many times before, there’s always that special someone that stands out from the rest, and she certainly captured my attention.
A rising star indeed.
