Have a Nice Day Cupcake. Someone created this art on the Qualicum Beach waterfront promenade

Warmest of appreciation to all who left such lovely notes last post. You are each a treasure. Thank you.

  1. Diane, a few years ago, a travel photograph friend told me you can’t take “good photos” where you live and I took it as a challenge – to prove him wrong.
    Vancouver is incredibly beautiful, and you have captured a side of it that perhaps “travel photographers” might never even notice – YOUR Vancouver.
    J’adore ces photos! Bisous!

  2. The quality of your images is matched only by your subjects, all of them beautiful, thank you Diane.

  3. I just love this series of photographs, Diane.
    The photographs are wonderful, and I love the series that you put them into, here.
    Have a fantastic weekend, my friend!
    xo.

  4. keep in mind that people in the deep south refer to me as a damnyankee when they find out my birth was in Ohio

    they assure me that’s one word : – )

  5. the order of your images feels like awaking in the early morning, sitting in a chair for a bit while i sip a cup of coffee and then running my errands

    i don’t know if it was intentional, but it feels like the progression of a pleasant day

    love, love the sailboat in it’s elegance and yes, unplugging from time to time really keeps me going

    is that rhubarb pie ? i haven’t seen it since i was about 10 or 12. people in the deep south don’t know what to do with rhubarb and they refer to it as a Yankee vegetable : – )

  7. A wonderful series of photos!! The view of the sailboat on the water is so tranquil and I love the enveloping petals of the flower. I’m ready to dig into that pie. 🙂
