For Smile on Saturday..."Portray a Book Title".
I have chosen a favourite book of mine "The Secret River" by Kate Grenville.
The Secret River is a 2005 historical novel about an early 19th-century Englishman transported to Australia for theft. The story explores what might have happened when Europeans colonised land already inhabited by Aboriginal people.
This is not the Hawkesbury River in NSW where it was set, but a river in Tasmania, The Pieman River.
Many thanks for your visits, kind comments and faves, very much appreciated.

The Doors a very important Rockband in the Sixties.Jim Morrison an exceptional and dazzling personality contributed to this.
A legendary band....spectacular performances, scandals and wonderful and unforgettably music distinguish them. 1971 Jim Morrison died at the age of 27 like many other legendary rock musicians.
A lot of songs still live today, for example....Light my fire , The end ........

The Dixie Cups - Chapel of Love
1964... #1 U S Billboard Hot 100 #1 Canada RPM Top Singles #22 UK Singles Chart.. This idyllic song about wedding joy was written by Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich, who got married the year before they wrote it. Barry wrote the lyrics with marriage on his mind, then Greenwich worked out the chord progression on a piano in their New York City apartment. Barry and Greenwich wrote this song for Phil Spector to produce. It was intended (appropriately) for Darlene Love, and she recorded the first version, with Spector producing as intended. He wasn't happy with this recording, so he tried it with The Ronettes, who a year earlier had their biggest hit with "Be My Baby," written by Barry and Greenwich..

"Portray a Book Title"
by Ernest Hemingway
This article is about the novel. For other uses, see The Sun Also Rises (disambiguation).
The Sun Also Rises is a 1926 novel by American writer Ernest Hemingway, his first, that portrays American and British expatriates who travel along the Camino de Santiago from Paris to the Festival of San Fermín in Pamplona and watch the running of the bulls and the bullfights. An early modernist novel, it received mixed reviews upon publication. Hemingway biographer Jeffrey Meyers writes that it is now "recognized as Hemingway's greatest work" and Hemingway scholar Linda Wagner-Martin calls it his most important novel. The novel was published in the United States in October 1926 by Scribner's. A year later, Jonathan Cape published the novel in London under the title Fiesta. It remains in print.

HSoS to all participants!
How uncanny is this?! I just started this book earlier this week and went out in my backyard, literally, at about 3:00pm this afternoon, wondering what I was going to shoot for this week's theme, "Portray a book title." As I was walking around the yard and doing a bit of gardening, on the grass right in front of me was an empty and abandoned nest! Voila! I found my subject to shoot! By the way, very positive book and I am enjoying it...been an empty nester for quite awhile but need an uplifting boost once in awhile!

Carroussel books
When you unfold the book you can bind the front and back sides together. This is how you get a mobile that you can hang up
The story is about a drifter named Aladin, who finds a lamp that houses a jinn. This genie is able to fulfill the wishes of the owner of the lamp.
Agatha Christie
The title story of this collection formed the basis for the successful written The Mousetrap, which has been drawing full houses in London for sixty years in a row. The five other stories are less famous than the first, but no less exciting. And both the admirers of the famous Hercule Poirot and the slender old Miss Marple can indulge themselves

For Smile on Saturday - portray a fairy tale
“There is wisdom to be found in fairytales, a deeper meaning in the magic of their worlds”
― Suzy Davies
Had so much fun doing this !
Shortly before the theme was announced I discovered this little brass (?) pot in the basement and wondered if I could use it for a project. When I found out about the theme for this week, I thought it could surely serve as an oil lamp. I had in mind the same little book I used once before and watched a tutorial on how to put letters on subjects.
Now I should remind myself about the actual fairy tale, I must have read it very, very long ago.

Black Holes is a two piece band from Prague. Kate (bass, vocals) & Martin (drums, vocals) offer a unique setup with uncompromising, full sound with catchy melodic vocals.
Here you can listen to their song 'Black hole' . Enjoy ;-)
The lyrics of 'Black Hole"
I barely breathe, feel like a ghost
Dodging what I fear the most
Not dead yet, not alive either
Bouncing on the edge and waiting
Till it's over
I travel through time and space
The stray soul that'll be erased
I am not dead yet, not alive either
Bouncing on the edge and waiting
Till it's over
And the black hole
Pulling me towards itself
Where the heat goes up, matter accelerates
I slowly fall
Into an empty space
From the black hole
Not even light escapes
Here I am met by the void
Infinite loop to timeless droid
Not dead yet, not alive either
Bouncing on the edge and waiting
To be sucked in by the
Black hole
Pulling me toward itself
Where the heat goes up, matter accelerates
I slowly fall
Into an empty space
From the black hole
Not even light escapes
Swallowed by the void

From my house renovation archives
he Shadows, with Cliff Richard, dominated British popular music in the late 1950s and early 1960s in the years before the Beatles. The Shadows' number one hits included "Apache", "Kon-Tiki", "Wonderful Land", "Foot Tapper" and "Dance On!". Although these and most of their best-remembered hits were instrumentals, the group also recorded occasional vocal numbers, and hit the UK top ten with the group-sung "Don't Make My Baby Blue" in 1965. Four other vocal songs by the Shadows also made the UK charts. They disbanded in 1968, but reunited in the 1970s for further commercial success.

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a pink or purple day at Color my World Daily and the theme at Smile on Saturday is portray the name of a music band.
And since I wanted to do a « floral » picture (since it is a pink or purple day) Guns N' Roses is my choice to portray.
I have to admit: except the name, my knowledge of Guns N' Roses and their music is very, very limited…or rather non existant. To tell the truth: I rarely remember the names of musical bands and I dont have a musical ear at all… But since I know the name Guns N’ Roses I figured that they’re must be someone else who knows it as well lol. Sorry for all Guns N’ Roses fans : I’m sure this is an awesome band but my taste in music is very, very basic (however I have others qualities !! Or so I hope …).
So here is my picture and I truly hope you will like it. The tiny gun belongs to my husband and it is a vintage cap gun.
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !! Have a beautiful day and see you later!!
FYI: I have 2 garden parties this weekend (post-pandemic life lol) so:
1) wish me luck
2) I apologize for not answering your comments right away but I will catch up as soon as possible …
3) my diet and sobriety are doomed…
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!! And see you soon on Flickr !!

The sparrow song goes out to bring attention to the other sparrows that the seed is up. Call of the Wild by Jack London.
“Pânză de păianjen “ Cella Serghi
The charming account of becoming an accomplished young woman in spite of poverty, constant relocation and struggles to maintain appearence.
Inspired by the author's own life, it is real proof that the early years of one's life influences the way it is perceived later on, and the decision making process.
The title of the book refers to the main character's destiny, which she perceives as unescapable, and sees herself as an insect stuck on the spiderweb and can never escape it.
The portrait of the main character, Diana Slavu, is built up through the contrast between how her best friend Ilinca sees her and her own account of how she really feels and the motives behind her actions.
The book is worth a read for the captivating descriptions of Mangalia and Balcic in the 1920s-30s, when they were still just charming little villages, the locations of the two great romances of her youth.
"Cartes Postales from Greece" is a novel by Victoria Hislop, an English author.
“Week after week, the postcards arrive, addressed to a name Ellie does not know, with no return address, each signed with an initial: A. With their bright skies, blue seas and alluring images of Greece, these cartes postales brighten her life. After six months, to her disappointment, they cease. But the montage she has created on the wall of her flat has cast a spell. She must see this country for herself."
Later there was a TV adaptation of Victoria Hislop's book.

The Police became globally popular in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Emerging in the British new wave scene, they played a style of rock influenced by punk, reggae, and jazz. (Wikipedia)
