I am just here to enjoy beautiful photos and find some calm in these chaotic times. I am a hobbyist photographer and I live in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada.

The pub is packed inside and about a dozen people are eating and drinking outside on the pavement. The pub has many flowering window boxes with pink, red, and white flowers hanging down over the windows.

A busy lunchtime at The Harp pub, Covent Garden, London. Their speciality sausages are always a hit!

Yes! We stayed in Kranjska Gora for a week and travelled each day to interesting places in Slovenia. It is a beautiful country!

Yes I did. I took it from my balcony with my phone. The sun has moved a little too far south now to get sunrises from that location but I will soon be able to get the sun rising over Lake Ontario, a 15 minute drive away.

My apologies for posting a photo of Bled Castle twice within 9 days. These late nights watching the Toronto Blue Jays have caught up with me. πŸ˜ƒβšΎ

There are two small waterfalls at the bottom of the Martuljek gorge where the water flows under the road. There are trees on both sides of the stream.

A branch of a ninebark shrub.  The leaves are turning yellow but the veins are still green.

The castle is perched on top of a sheer cliff.  There are trees and shrubs around the castle, on the side of the cliff.  All of the wings of the castle have an orange tile roof, including the turret.

There are 4 crocus blooms in a woodland area. They are a mauve colour and have yellow stamens. There is straw underneath the flowers.

At first glance, I thought that the church was flooded. I certainly did pause for thought! Great photo, Guy.

This photo was taken from my balcony. Above the city lights the sun is almost at the horizon. The clouds around the sun are golden in colour and above them the sky is still blue with white whispy clouds.

There is one single orange zinnia bloom surrounded by dark green leaves. Raindrops are on the flower petals and the leaves.

A large maple tree has turned orange. There are other trees around it with various shades of autumn. Many leaves have fallen onto the ground and there is a picnic table beside the pathway.

A rather cold but colourful walk this morning.
