East Molesey, England
Chelsea and I had a lovely stroll along the River Thames. We past some beautiful trees, but these ones topped them all off! In full bloom they are gorgeous!

Swan on the River Thames
Kingston, EnglandNesting Swan
Kingston Upon Thames, England
While Chelsea McKenzie Pacini and I were having lunch with Ilaria Silli, (a great friend from Italy) I noticed people walking across a bridge and then they would stop and look down. So, after lunch we walked over there to see what they were looking at and this is it, a Swan sitting on her nest! I am assuming this is a female because generally the female sits on her nest for up to 6 weeks, the male however, can if necessary. I love swans, they are beautiful and so graceful in the water. Also, they mate for life which I think is really cool! They are beautiful! CONGRATULATIONS go to Donald Donald E. Russell & Raewyn Lyes Viljoen for guessing correctly, at least the Swan, the nest is an added bonus! Donald & Raewyn, send me your mailing address in a private message (Facebook) and I will send you your gift for guessing correctly!!

A Touch of Rain

It had been raining or drizzling for a while and as I walked by these flowers, their intensity & beauty struck me! Rain or water helps that. For years, I have carried in my camera bag a small spray bottle to liven up my flower photos. This day, I didn’t need to do that, nature did it for me! Thank you! ☺️

Ponte Della Maddalena
Craig’s cousin, Francesco, took us to see his wife, Paola’s, home town. On the way we passed this bridge (Ponte Della Maddalena or Ponte Del Diavolo – “Bridge of Mary Magdalena” or “Devil’s Bridge”), which was on my list to take photos of, so it was perfect! And, the weather and lighting were so good, giving a perfect reflection in the Serchio River! This bridge was built between 1046-1111 AD.

Large Waterfall
Plitvička Jezera, Croatia
We drove for about an hour and a half from Zagreb Croatia and we went to the most awesome waterfalls at the Plitvice Lakes National Park! When we talked to our friend, David Grant, the night before, he was telling us about these waterfalls and drawing a map on his whiteboard, I asked him where the waterfalls were and he replied, everywhere, they are everywhere! And, they are! They are so beautiful, they are breathe taking! These are the largest and they are called the Large Waterfalls.
