In other news, water is wet.

Hopefully the door won`t hit them on the back when they leave.

They again, they always say they will leave.

The sun was falling on these dried flowers we have at home. I was hoping we'd see more of the contrast between the light and shadows.

I always wonder why people don't walk around the spider and get it framing Parliament. Something to keep in mind next time you come to Ottawa.

The original Ektar line in the 1990's were my favorite films.

Definitely B&W!

Throwback to 2012
Stanley Park
Vancouver BC Canada
Park named after Lord Stanley, former Governor General of Canada who also donated the Cup. (For those outside N. America, the Cup is the trophy for pro hockey champions. For those in Toronto, hockey is what the Leafs play between golf seasons.)

Hi Premee, I sent Kate a link to see the photos I took during the book launch, I asked her to forward it to you.

And I agree with Derek, I'm enjoying the story so far.

The Joker, Batman, and Catwoman
They did not know each other. I was taking a photo of Batman when Catwoman walked by, so we had to take a photo of the two of them together. While we were doing it, the Joker arrived.

I will be on a staycation next week, and as I am planning to stay out of my home office, I will be away from social media. Will resume my postings on October 20.

Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Canadians.
