Paul Schofield in The Captain of Köpenick (1971)
Laurence Olivier in The Dance of Death (1967)
Drawing the faces of these two giants of the English stage revealed to me the power that they could generate with either a distant glance or thunderous frown. Both of their performances live on in my memory as unforgettable evenings in the theatre from many years ago.
Earth has not anything to show more fair:
Dull would he be of soul who could pass by
A sight so touching in its majesty
A little love from Mother Earth for Mother’s Day
Ladder 3 – 9/11 Memorial Museum, New York
Seeing the crushed remains of Ladder 3 at the National September 11 Memorial and Museum in New York on our moving visit to the museum last year one could not help but feel an overwhelming sense of admiration and gratitude for the sacrifice and bravery of those 343 firefighters of the New York City Fire Department who were lost that day together with an additional 68 emergency workers and the 2566 innocent lives they were trying to save.
This quote from Virgil is displayed in the hall of the Museum.

This week Jen asks us to…“share an image that represents the potential of things to come.”
No surprise to those of you who follow my blog that I would choose a picture of our beautiful granddaughter who this weekend is driving the most economical car of the future that runs on nothing but pure love.
With a thank you to Cheri one final post for the last day of this week’s Photo Challenge as we catch the Aquabus back to Granville Island and head on home. Here you have a better view of the third bridge that crosses False Creek, the Cambie Street Bridge, and in the distance below the span you can just make out the geodesic dome of Science World from where we have just walked and from where yesterday’s panorama was taken.
Before we leave one final view of Burrard Bridge where these last seven days of landscape photos began last Friday. I hope you have enjoyed the views as much as we did on our walk last weekend. Thanks for joining us.
