Rare pierces Posted April 24, 2023 #1 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Pictures taken between Monday, April 24 and Sunday, April 30. Do the right thing. On this forum, and in particular on this series, the right thing is to post pictures taken this week. Rules: See above That's it. This isn't a contest. All photos taken this week are welcome (not just cruising). Prizes will not be awarded. Discovering the joy of photography is the prize. The idea is to get folks out using their cameras for more than vacations and toddler birthdays. Post one. Post many. Up to you. Have fun with your camera and share your fun with others!

Rare pierces Posted April 30, 2023 Author #4 Share Posted April 30, 2023 So much of our lives revolve around mealtimes. When heads of state gather, there is almost always a banquet of some sort. For weddings, there is a rehearsal dinner prior to the event and as lavish a reception dinner as the family can afford after the ceremony. Favorite foods are a hallmark of birthday celebrations, with a bonus of cake. Thanksgiving has its turkey and Easter has any number of regional traditional meals. Christmas too. I even remember fish-sticks on Friday at school way back when. Why is food so important? Most of us have never known when it was scarce and hard to get. We celebrate with food because it gives life, happiness and security. Food unto itself can be a celebration like this perfectly smoked Tri-tip we prepared for, well...Tuesday evening.

Victress2007 Posted May 31, 2023 #5 Share Posted May 31, 2023 (edited) Recently went to Venice and Florence on a land trip. I took over 2000 photos! So much beauty, talent, art, architecture, imagination, history, culture, stained glass, blown glass, wine, food, it's hard to take it all in in just a few days. This clock made an impact on me as something I hadn't seen before. A 24 hour, counter-clockwise, upside down clock. Santa Maria del Fiore, Florence.
