Sunday Selections was originally brought to us by Kim, of Frogpondsrock, as an ongoing meme where participants could post previously unused photos languishing in their files.
The meme is now continued by River at Drifting through life. The rules are so simple as to be almost non-existent. Post some photos under the title Sunday Selections and link back to River. Clicking on any of the photos will make them embiggen.
Like River I usually run with a theme. This week? More things which have made me smile.
Mostly the usual things, but the smiles have been there (and welcome) just the same.
Visiting birds.
I liked the way the setting sun reflected the galah's colours back at it.
In the sky. A colourful dawn this time.
The garden is suffering in the heat. We are not as hot as some other parts of Oz, particularly South Australia and Victoria, but we are still hot. Too hot. And dry. Just the same, some things are hanging in.
I do like these dwarf hollyhocks - and hope they spread their seed with gay abandon.
This calla is called mango and the fruit is another thing which makes me smile.
The biggest smile of all came from a treat the skinny one and I gave ourselves. We went to see Cirque du Soleil's Quidam. Which was fabulous. As expected. I don't think the performers are human. Their agility, strength and suppleness are completely incredible.
No photos while they are performing of course, so just two of the stage and the arena before the show started.
For those of you who celebrate it, I hope Christmas is full of love and laughter. Indeed I hope that everyone's lives are full of those fine things - regardless of what they celebrate.
