I hope all these fall shots aren't boring you, but it was another glorious day with brilliant sunshine and compelling colors.
These are my reading glasses, handy for reading a book on a nice day while enjoying a nice mug of darjeeling tea. For 119 pictures in 2019, #93 "spectacles"
Well it was raining outside still. Shot taken by spray misting one of the lenses of a pair of reading glasses and then placing a small pooh bear cuddly toy behind the lens.

Quartier des spectacles
Nouvelle lune - une installation lumineuse et sonore :
Cette installation artistique immersive vous invite dans un espace et une atmosphère magique. Au rythme d’une musique originale, découvrez sept sphères autogonflées dévoilant, par un jeu d’ombres ou de lumière, des images et des histoires emblématiques inspirées de la culture du Quartier des spectacles.
Replongez-vous dans la fébrilité d’un grand spectacle public aux allures oniriques et enchanteresses, à travers le regard des spectateurs, des artistes et même des techniciens.
Laissez-vous envoûter par l’une ou l’autre des bulles animées : la sphère principale et majestueuse de 21 pieds (6.4 m) de diamètre présentant une vidéoprojection donnant vie à des silhouettes cachées à l’intérieur, deux autres sphères racontant des histoires sous forme d’un théâtre d’ombres ou les trois dernières sphères ravivant votre expérience par divers jeux de lumière.
Un moment féérique, tout en couleurs et en lumières.
Amusez-vous !

I wear several pairs of glasses for different purposes, but, unlike in this photo, only one pair at a time. They are, reading from the top:
#1 Distant vision glasses, I have a pair of these which I use when watching tv and another pair in the car for driving
#2 Intermediate vision glasses which I wear when using the computer
#3Reading glasses (I have three pairs of these scattered around the house so I have them where I want them)
#4 Close vision glasses which I use when writing*
Despite having all these optical aids I actually spend most of my time not wearing glasses at all as I can see quite well without them. *For really close work I can see better without glasses as I am very short-sighted in my right eye. But being only very slightly short-sighted in my left eye I can easily pass the driving test without glasses.
"Nice to see you"
My new glasses with a prescription for the computer screen. I also have a pair for reading, and progressives for everyday use.

Spectacles Bridge was constructed in 1634 and was Japan's first Chinese-style stone bridge. The bridge gets its name from its resemblance to a pair of spectacles when the arches of the bridges are reflected as ovals on the surface of the river (Source: Nagasaki City Tourism Guide).
Meganebashi (眼鏡橋?) or Spectacles Bridge, over the Nakashima River (中島川) was built in Nagasaki in 1634[1] by the Japanese monk Mokusu of Kofukuji Temple. It is said to be the oldest stone arch bridge in Japan and has been designated as an Important Cultural Property. It received the nickname "Spectacles Bridge" because its two arches and their reflection in the water create the image of a pair of spectacles. On July 23, 1982, a disastrous deluge washed away six of the ten stone bridges over the Nakashima River. Meganebashi was badly damaged but fortunately almost all the original stones were retrieved and the bridge was restored to its original appearance. (Wikipedia)
The Colosseum, or the Coliseum, originally the Flavian Amphitheatre (Latin: Amphitheatrum Flavium, Italian Anfiteatro Flavio or Colosseo), is an elliptical amphitheatre in the centre of the city of Rome, Italy, the largest ever built in the Roman Empire. It is considered one of the greatest works of Roman architecture and Roman engineering.
Occupying a site just east of the Roman Forum, its construction started between 70 and 72 AD[1] under the emperor Vespasian and was completed in 80 AD under Titus,[2] with further modifications being made during Domitian's reign (81–96).[3] The name "Amphitheatrum Flavium" derives from both Vespasian's and Titus's family name (Flavius, from the gens Flavia).
Capable of seating 50,000 spectators,[1][4][5] the Colosseum was used for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles such as mock sea battles, animal hunts, executions, re-enactments of famous battles, and dramas based on Classical mythology. The building ceased to be used for entertainment in the early medieval era. It was later reused for such purposes as housing, workshops, quarters for a religious order, a fortress, a quarry, and a Christian shrine.
Although in the 21st century it stays partially ruined because of damage caused by devastating earthquakes and stone-robbers, the Colosseum is an iconic symbol of Imperial Rome. It is one of Rome's most popular tourist attractions and still has close connections with the Roman Catholic Church, as each Good Friday the Pope leads a torchlit "Way of the Cross" procession that starts in the area around the Colosseum.[6]
