Apparently, when Tchaikovsky wrote the musical fragment Waltz of the Flowers for the ballet The Nutcracker, he was sitting at the piano in a field of flowers. Since then, everything has remained like this in memory of the great composer.

Colourful Field
It is not country of tulips Holland, it is small town Fenwick in Ontario. Some enthusiasts turned a wild field into a blooming garden. For two weeks, this colorful carpet delights many flower lovers. Tulips, tulips, tulips…all about tulips.
It’s spring again in this world
It is most beautiful time of the year. Few days ago everything around was grey and boring and in just couple days all the orchards exploded with the white and pink blooming.
Reflections
If you don’t find a way to kill time in retirement, time will kill you.
This is why I am still working (they need me) 🙂 and doing a lot of different things after, but do not have enough time to complete all of my projects. It means, I have to live as long as it takes to finish everything. Lol…
Comfort Maple
I have nothing to add to first picture information, except that I live nearby. Let’s come back here in Autumn and enjoy the colours it has.
Art in the Workplace
Sometimes to forget about daily routine it is nice to visit some place that soothes and restores your mind. Saturday was the day for this kind of activity.
Art in the Workplace (AWP) is a Hamilton based not-for-profit organization that creates opportunities for local artists to showcase their talents to the community in an unconventional setting. AWP holds local art exhibitions and tours in the Atrium at McMaster Innovation Park – a world-class centre for innovation and research, and a collaborative partner of our organization. AWP has three exhibitions a year, each lasting four months and featuring the work of over 100 local artists. (https://www.artintheworkplace.ca)

Eclipse
After two sunny days with “Italian” sky totally clear of clouds, we had pretty grey overcast today. However, we were lucky enough to watch eclipse. It wasn’t so clear but it was a lot of fun to see it at all. When you experience the day coming from totally bright to night dark and then to morning light in just few minutes, it leaves you in awe. Let’s watch how it happened step by step.
Unfortunately, before totality the sun has been hidden by the clouds and we could not see the crown.
Then night has come.
Golgotha
‘Before the rooster crows today, you will deny me three times.’
Entrance to the Room of the Last Supper.
Dead Sea
Nothing to be added – just it is what it is. Dead Sea. It is so salty that nothing can live there. It is hot around and hard to imagine the water is still there. The coast is covered by salt and it is impossible to come into the water barefoot.
