A gala display of chrysanthemums with blooms of myriad colors, shapes and sizes provide an explosive finale to the variety of flowers that have been enjoyed during the three growing seasons here in New England.

This annual show that is held at Smith College's Lyman Conservatory in Northampton, Massachusetts, goes on this year for two weeks from Nov 1 through Nov 16. The theme this year focuses on dragons and other mythical creatures.

One of the top attractions of the show are the cascading mums that grow downward on trellises along one wall of one of the two adjoining greenhouses that house the show.

The Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto is adorned with a multitude of charming fox statues, paying homage to the revered Inari deity, the guardian of rice, fertility, and prosperity in Japanese folklore. These foxes, known as "Kitsune," stand as iconic symbols representing divine messengers and magical creatures.

 

Positioned throughout the shrine grounds, these statues captivate visitors with their mischievous expressions and elegant poses. Crafted with exquisite detail, the foxes often hold a symbolic key or a jewel in their mouths, signifying their roles as guardians and carriers of spiritual energy.

 

Each fox statue evokes a sense of wonder, inviting contemplation about the shrine's rich mythology and cultural significance. These enchanting figures not only enhance the shrine's allure but also contribute to the spiritual ambiance and mystical charm that envelops the sacred grounds of Fushimi Inari.

This group of Tiki Men seemed rather happy compared to many carvings we saw in Hawaii.

 

According to Wikipedia, this is the definition of Tiki Men;

"In Māori mythology, Tiki is the first man, created by either Tūmatauenga or Tāne. He found the first woman, Marikoriko, in a pond; she seduced him and he became the father of Hine-kau-ataata. By extension, a tiki is a large wooden carving in humanoid form"

I wouldn't like to suggest that all street lights in Thailand look like this, not even Mahasarakham. But only in Thailand do you find street lights like this.

 

I have just been told that in Thai it is called 'hong' and it is related to the swan.
