Cheerful

A reminder to members of City Daily Photo: the theme for the first of June is The Road.

There is an abstract sculpture set in between sections of a bed where tulips are deliberately sparsely planted.


The sparseness appeals to me as much as the more dense plantings.


Another work of art. Man With Two Hats is a large sculpture, one of a pair. The other one stands in Apeldoorn, the Netherlands. The two sculptures mark the friendship of the two countries.


The path beckoned me on.

    I find it delightful that the theme is "The Road" at a time when Jason Kenney is taking the road out the back door, and away from public life forever we can only hope.
