From earth to sky the deck magic continues 🙂

The Weekly Photo Challenge from Cheri today asks us to “share an image that means “earth” to you,” for upcoming Earth Day. This photographic detail of my painting of Cypress Alleyway, which I have already featured on thechangingpalette more than once, is my way of celebrating an earthly magical place that I shall never forget.
Today marks the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge.
Since our memorable 2012 visit to the Canadian National Memorial in Vimy I have posted many of my photographs from that moving visit over the past four years together with my video Lest We Forget made from those photos. To commemorate today’s solemn celebrations I am posting links to two of the posts for those of you who might wish to revisit them and welcome those of my new followers who might be interested in seeing them for the first time.

Lest we forget.
Those of you who know of my camelliaddiction will understand my pleasure at the opening of the first camellia bud of 2017 resplendent in amongst the dense shrubbery, which will soon be sparkling with more glorious white blooms than ever this year. Stay tuned 🙂
After days of rain and more rain, the sun returned this morning to illuminate these early blooming magnificent magnolias on our street, perfect for this week’s Photo Challenge: Dense.

Sometimes you just have to stop the car and take it all in as we did on the road in Glen Canyon after visiting Antelope Canyon in Arizona in 2015.
