A Melodious Album




A Sweet Melody by way of there Vantages

Perhaps there is a melody with the array of pictures of today and yesterday, a mixture of now and within the past. It’s that time of the year one does look at things within a variety.
An array by way of the minds eye. Some are of as recent as today while I did my walk and stopped over at a church here after as it was just ending while I walked in. Seemingly they all seemed very happy especially the old people. It’s not within faith it’s within life. I was merely walking my walk while at the same time the sun did shine. Yes Sunday it is and I looked back within several of my pictures and thought I would place in what render space with some regards to some of the places I have been here and else where.

  11. Lynne, this is a cathedral here that is called the --- I forget the name
    right now but there is another that is in Chicago that was built at the
    same time. It's a place that literally really got me going within pictures.
    This is a trek back to the past but I can see that there are some that are
    missing within here as I let them all load and some didn't "flow" in.

    Architecture of churches, chapels and spaces are just something that
    has always had some substance. yeah.

    ReplyDelete
  18. what a silly gentleman eh ... you looked so innocent here as if looking for something. Great. Loved it

    ReplyDelete
  19. You're obviously a professional photographer.

  20. I especially love the stained glass. There's a basilica in Mexico of which I have fond memories. It's in San Miguel, but I have no pictures. I'm a total failure when it comes to taking photographs.

    I have a friend who once lived across the street from the Grace Cathedral and often went there. She went to organ performances, and also alone to light the little blue candles. I believe she was once a contact of yours.

  21. the arch, the smoke of winter and the gray-white wintry feel is just lovely ... there is some feeling of warmth here. Great shot

    ReplyDelete
  22. The friend I mentioned wrote a poem about the "Book." It's a dedication in the published book "Journey to Evensong." Her painting "Vicar to Evensong" also graces the cover~~a painting she had done many years before the book. Interesting how they came together..

  33. Pipe organs send shivers up the spine.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Do you have a story to go with this?

    ReplyDelete
  35. What a treasure! We feed the birds here, primarily chickadees, and it takes a while for them to get used to us standing nearby, and then if we have enough patience, we can get them to land on our hands for seeds, but as I've said, we need lots of patience.

    ReplyDelete
  36. The trees are pointing "this way", no "that way", no....

    ReplyDelete
  37. There's quite a variety of shapes and colors here.

    ReplyDelete
  39. A great white north style of pyramid, eh?

    ReplyDelete
  40. There are so many wonderful sky shots in the early morning!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Reminds me of a fence line along one of our smaller highways in which each fence post had a boot turned upside down on top of it along a pasture. A couple years earlier each fence post had a bowling ball stuck on it.

    ReplyDelete
  42. What I like about all your scenic indoor shots is that they are slices of daily life (which you already knew), but will be very neat to look at 20-30 years from now, especially if places have changed.

    ReplyDelete
  43. The little girl on the left fell asleep waiting for you to push the button :P

    ReplyDelete
  44. Can I have my summer back, please?

    ReplyDelete
  45. Within the winter they have a observatory and three staff. And the first thing they as before you take this trail is if you would like some seeds.
    And within the winter they literally just come to your hand. Often many thought I had some program that I could place images and make something
    up but this was something even I was surprised as I have never had that happen before.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Sig any time as our paths have crossed several times within our writes.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  52. Sig I saw him today, I have a video and I declined to place it on

  55. Was in the Botanical Gardens in Quebec.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Yeah, if you remember Eddy Murphy and Dan Ackroyd in "Trading Places".
    I was having fun downtown in NY. It's an old early 90's movie.

    ReplyDelete
  57. Green and waters of Blue
    I love the summer.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Very much so Faye I have never done a back up and really things do change there are stages within our
    lives and as John Lennon said, "there are places I remember, but some are gone and some remain".

    ReplyDelete
  59. Ice sculptures never cease to amaze me.

    ReplyDelete
  60. Wow, the cold must have been brutal.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Thanks Sue, I so enjoyed pictures within churches ironically. It was due history, the architecture and I am no pro, but I
    literally would meet some very interesting people just in taking the weekend and making a list of a few places that I wished
    to go. I don't know if you know whom Wayne Gretzky is the hockey icon. But he was married right within this church
    which is in Edmonton, Alberta.

    There actually was a wedding taking place when I was afforded the opportunity to take this picture.
