Lovely old red stone house by the edge of Roseburn Park near Murrayfield, the window frames painted red, and red winter berries on the plants next to them, and the golden winter light on the whole scene, so many shades of red, had to stop and take a pic.
Rennes, capital of Brittany, Bretagne, France.
Rennes, capital of Brittany. The ancient settlement of Condate, built at the confluent of the Ille and Vilaine rivers in the first century B.C., was probably founded by the Redones, the people of Armorica, and the Romans, the new masters of the whole of Gaul. At the end of the third century, the town known as “Civitas Riedonum” was given its first 1200m-high city wall. In the 15th century, the town’s rapid growth led to the construction of two further city walls to the north-east and south of the Vilaine, increasing the area of the walled city from 9 to 62 hectares. The Tour Duchesne and Portes Mordelaises are the main fortified remains from this period.
The Metropolitan district of Rennes comprises 43 towns and villages including the city of Rennes and today has a population of almost 416,000 (the third greatest population increase in western France), spread over some 67,000 hectares (598 inhabitants per km). After the influx of 45,000 inhabitants over the past 15 years, a further rise of 60,000 is expected between now and 2015. This population growth can be witnessed in Rennes, across the département and throughout Brittany as a whole. “Greater Rennes” stretches out around the central city, which has 210,000 inhabitants and is separated from the rest of the district by a green belt. This style of town planning has preserved the essentially rural identity of the suburban towns and villages. The Metropolitan district of Rennes has preserved vast farmlands in a fertile area along with numerous natural sites, notably along the River Vilaine and its tributaries.
The distinctive centre of Rennes blends seamlessly into the district’s contemporary urban fabric, thanks to a tried and tested planning policy which favours natural spaces and emphasises public transport and environmentally friendly ways of getting around such as the metro and cycling. www.tourisme-rennes.com/en/home.aspx

Perhaps it would be comforting and warm to view some spring blossoms outside your window from your living room in the middle of a very cold winter.

Gastown is a creative mecca full of designers, artists, writers and students in the arts. Simon Fraser University also has its School of Contemporary Arts in the redeveloped Woodward's plaza.
California's first theatre was built in Monterey, California. It was originally built in 1844 as lodging for sailors by John "Jack" Swan. Behind the building formerly used as a theater sits this smaller adobe building. I do not know if it was built the same year. It served as a Curio Shop for a while.
No, I am not going to straighten this photo. Why? Because the window was put in crooked. They must not have had a level.
See link to an article from last year that details some of the theatre's history and plans for restoration.

I'm Back! I must admit I have been a bit remiss in adding some new photos on here, I had intended to post some more from the Lyndhurst Meeting but I thought I would break it up by adding the ones from December's Totton Disco first, along with an assortment of other photos and another addition to the Historic Winchester series.
A big thank you to all the people that have commented on the previous pictures, your support is much appreciated! Thanks also To Grace King and Linda Long for taking the photos at Totton!
My neighbor's dog, Kayla, the white Chihuahua, and Ali, my neighbor's sister's older mixed Australian Cattle Dog, watch me pass by their window as I walk my dog. Ali has since crossed the rainbow bridge prior to me releasing this image. She's definitely watching over her pack here on earth.
Holy Trinity Church, a Russian Orthodox church in Karakol.
The first church in Karakol, built when the city was founded, in 1869. Its purpose was to serve the troops stationed in Karakol, which it did until it was destroyed in an earthquake in 1889. A new wooden church was built on the same spot over the course of six years, and was consecrated in 1895.
Upon its completion, the spire of the new Holy Trinity Church was the tallest building in Karakol, at 26m tall. The church was active until 1917, when it became property of the state, and was used as everything from a theater to warehouse. In 1947, the church started holding services again, but in the 1960s was again used for other purposes.
After independence in 1991, the building was returned to church authorities, who started repairs and reconstructions for the damaged interior and exterior.

A still life image of an old pastel green or aqua timber wall inside a beach house cottage. Three wicker baskets are stacked on an old wooden table with a bouquet of flowers on top, and a picture of a beach scene on the wall with an old rustic timber frame with the paint peeling off.
so you're tryin' to do what they did
your friends that turned to liquid
and got lost in a sea
now you're drowning me
with your talk of 4-leaf clovers
you turn to rocks and omen
to beat the ambient harm
that is bruising your karma
oh I wish my arms were wider
I wish that I could hide you
so you could rest and repair
without the blanket of sorrow
the thick and the grey
your blanket of woe
is so heavy and stained
and it only weighs you down
so you thought that getting sober
would mean your life was over
I don't think it's that bad
I don't think it's that sad
just you sleep a little, baby
leave the world alone and later
if you wake up alive
that old blanket of sorrow
could be feathers and down
your blanket of woe
would leave you alone
and I could love you 'til you drown...
come to me, let's drown
come baby, let's drown
in feathers and down
