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 Infinity symbol. At first, I had a very difficult time to find an infinity symbol in my props… but then there was this elastic orange hair band laying on the floor in front of me. And since I’m lazy I wasn’t about to pick it up (especially that my house is a total mess right now because of our renovations) until I noticed that it was a perfect Infinity symbol ! Isn’t that great ? Of course, turning an orange elastic band into a levitating infinity symbol was another problem but I’m pretty much satisfied with the results. And I truly hope it will make you smile !!
Juste for your information: I have lots of things going on in my personal life right now and due to our renovations going super fast my « photo studio » (aka coffee table) and all my props had to take a vacation and all of my stuff is currently in my bathtub (yes, people !! The struggle is real, there is virtually no free space left in my house … event the bathtub is full of stuff !! And yes, we did put a cork in, just in case !!). So I’m will not be able to publish daily anymore (which makes me truly sad since I got truly attached to all your awesome comments, support and this amazing community…). For now, I will be officially on « vacation » from Flickr (but it isn’t by choice …). I will try to publish as soon as possible. Until then : stay well and safe my friends !!
Have a beautiful day !! Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!

""Last night, while saying goodby to my last folded origami-Santa, the presumed empty sack suddenly moved. To both our big surprise an origami-crane emerged ;-))""
In Japanese folklore, cranes are said to live a thousand years. Because of this, an origami crane represents a long, healthy life. Cranes are also viewed as symbols of happiness and good luck. According to legend, if one thousand paper cranes are folded, it is said that one's wish will be granted. After the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, the origami crane also became a symbol of peace and nonviolence.
I wish it was possible to give you all a folded origami-crane (origami Tsuru), but I have to do this way.
I want to thank you for your friendship and support throughout the year. Your appreciation and comments are a motivation to go on. I'm also happy I can share the joy of origami with you.
I wish you all a very joyful and happy Xmas or very joyful and happy Holidays with your beloved ones. Enjoy ;-))

Buzludzha is a communist monument - build in Bulgaria in the 70s and abbandoned in 1989.
Unluckely I couldn't manage to take picture outside to the strange UFO shape of the building due to the tremndous fog and wind
I am so lucky to have two kids that absolutely adore each other. They are also very creative, so I did not even have to ask to make this love symbol for me. I love them dearly.
The Konark Sun Temple. An ancient architecture built in 13th century, was dedicated to God 'Sun'. With twelve pairs of gigantic sundials, ornamented chariots and classical arts, carved over the stone walls, its a cool place to recall Indian history. Also once was known as Black Pagoda to Europeans as the ships passing through near by used to experience destruction of their navigation systems because of humongous magnetic supports of the temple.
Simply its a perfect composition of engineering, astronomy and fine art !!!
L'amica Linda (che non è solo un' eccellente artista della fotografia, ma è anche ricca di conoscenza) con le sue parole sulla mia foto precedente ha suscitato vari ed interessanti commenti che mi hanno spinto a postare questa immagine del Ponte dei Draghi composta da tre sculture differenti, tutte rappresentanti il Drago sconfitto dal mitico argonauta Giasone, ma poi diventato il simbolo protettore della bella capitale della Slovenia

Helios 44M-7 at F2 plus a 2x teleconverter. I have photographed this wooden figurine before. As an object, its nature is trivial and some might call it kitsch. To me, it has its enigmatic fascination. It popped up right at the beginning, when I met the woman who would become my wife. Difficult to put into words what goes on inside. Associations like 'home', 'protection' and 'intimacy' well up. The totally unsubstantiated feeling, you know, that, 'in the end, everything will be alright'. Symbols work this way, signposts to a world that is (eventually) in order.

The Treasury (Al-Khazna). A vast structure and magnificent architecture are Petra's main site attractions.
Established possibly as early as 312 BC as the capital of the Nabataeans, it is a symbol of Jordan and the country's most-visited tourist attraction. It lies on the slope of Jebel al-Madhbah (identified by some as the biblical Mount Hor in a basin among the mountains that form the eastern flank of the Arabah (Wadi Araba), the large valley running from the Dead Sea to the Gulf of Aqaba. It is believed that Petra was home to roughly 30,000 people and was abandoned in the year 106 AD. The site has been a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1985.

Père Lachaise cemetery
Le laurier, avec son feuillage persistant suggère l'éternité. Depuis l'époque romaine, il est aussi associé à la gloire, mais comme il s'agit d'une tombe féminine du 19e siècle, je ne suis pas sûre que ce voeu d'éternité fasse référence à une gloire de la jeune femme.
