Studio 365: Day 287

iii
 
What could be better than the perfect day in London, beginning with a latte on Waterloo Station before walking to Tate Britain, with so much to enjoy on the way: the London Eye, Westminster Bridge, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, Churchill’s statue, Richard Coeur de Lion in Old Palace Yard, and then along Millbank to my favourite gallery and a return to the Turners’ and so many other memorable British artists. Come and join me and enjoy the day…

Wishing everyone a Happy Canadian Thanksgiving Monday.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Boundaries

Yesterday, on another inspiring early morning walk along the Admiralty Trail on the boundary of the Pacific Spirit Regional Park, the sunlight filtering through the high overhanging branches created a canopy of colour that at times simply took our breath away.

We stepped aside for the joggers and then met the two little Papillon sisters Cricket and Bella, aged six and seven, who kindly pawsed and posed for me.

Autumn in all its glory, once again, I hope you agree.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Connected

For this week’s Photo Challenge Ben asks us “to show how two (or more) things — people, objects, places — come together.”

This image may seem familiar to you if you were participating in Photography 101 last November and you recall Cheri asking us to capture the day’s theme: Connect. I’m afraid I couldn’t resist revisiting the conceit.
