Victorian Ma & Pa

A sweet little scene through an open doorway in our Historic Precinct. The Oamaru stone walls compliment the arranged interior.

Three Good Things;
1. I'm not in the Victorian age.
2. A lovely Pea,pie,pudd in the Pub opposite this scene.
3.The ashes of my sister and her husband arrived and a rainbow shone over Oamaru.

[Pat Knowles]

How sweet....a little family ready to set out for a walk in the park.....love the lace on the pram. A fitting welcome for your loved ones Maggimae!

[Maggiemae]

@amandal Thanks Amanda - shaping up to be a great one - watering the roses for a start!

[katy]

interesting to see an interior view of the oldlife.

Nice that the ashes were heralded with a rainbow.

[Margaret Pengelly]

A rainbow. Perfect timing an what a lovely scene. Captured beautifully.

[Alison Tomlin]

Fab looking scene. Would like to see you ride that bike!

[summerfield]

the rainbow must've look ominous for the occasion. nice victorian setting you captured. that's not your regular bike parked outside, is it? :-)

[Maggiemae]

@summerfield Hell no, Vikki! The seat is too hard and it doesn't have brakes!

[Debra Hall]

looks like they're hiding! Love the old bike :)

[Maggiemae]

@doodlerdeb It does rather! Do you think they are going to say, "Boo" to anyone who walks in?

[Al Bailey]

How lovely to get the rainbow ...... this is a lovely shot :)

[Darlene]

What a great shot, Maggiemae. Your processing is awesome and love that old bike. How nice to have a rainbow appear at same time your sister and her husbands ashes arrived.

Lovely scene, how would you be riding that penny farthing ??

[Maggiemae]

@tonydebont With those long skirts, Tony, heaven knows but I think they did!

[Pam Knowler]

What a lovely scene! How wonderful that a rainbow should appear to greet your family! Have a great weekend!

[monday west]

[Ruth Greene]

Fav, this is so sweet, love the tones

[Susan]

I really like this, such nice tones and focus.

[Scott]

Awesome feel to this... Fav!

[Stephanie Swift]

Beautiful capture. Aren't you glad you have your electric bike and don't have to ride something like the one in this picture?

[Maggiemae]

@tristansmum I'm loving the bike more and more - not painful knees, no inordinate puffing!

[Daisy Miller]

Lovely shot. Masterful composition. It is great that you were greeted by a rainbow today.

[Khawbecker]

It's a great shot, and maybe because it's coming up on Halloween, it's also just a little bit creepy too. Ha. Especially because it seems like they are looking at you.

[Leana Niemand]

This is a fantastic shot Maggie, perfect lighting and exposure.

[Gena Pegg]

This is so lovely...and the couple almost look real. Love the bicycle out front! Wonderfully composed Maggie.

[Maggiemae]

@eyesmile Thank you Gena! I daresay there is a maid around too so they can change their clothes every now and then!

[👑 AnaZad]

This is a beautiful scene represented. Love the bike at the entrance. Great capture.

[Kathleen]

Lovely shot

[Corinne]

like the vintage feeling, the table and plant inside are painted on the wall aren't they ?

[Dione Giorgio]

Very nice. I love visiting places like this.

[Vega]

what a lovely setting and wow - fantastic on the rainbow popping up at such a poignant time

[Alice Burghart]

great setting

[☠northy]

lovely scene... beautifully captured!

[Kitti Nelson]

A beautiful image, Maggiemae, and so lovely that a rainbow welcomed your family members.

[Keri]

A beautiful image of days gone by. You weren't tempted to swap your new bike for the old one?

[Maggiemae]

@cocobella I don't think so though just round the corner of the sofa is a pillar with ivy twirled round it that is painted.

[Gillian]

I love the pennyfarthing! Such a sweet scene.

[Rick Schies]

Looks like a beautiful foyer

[Bev]

Nice shot. It looks like a doll house! So cool that a rainbow appeared at the same time the ashes arrived. I think that's a sign.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

The Victorian age was really not a good one...at least not for us women! Great shot.

[Sandy]

Lovely image and interesting detail like that old bike outside.

[Maggie]

A sneak peek into the past. Thank you for sharing this charming image.

[Jen Hudson]

Love the penny farthing, however did they ride them. Nice composition to give us a peek.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

If this was a shot of a Victorian home in the USA the walls would not be so barren! Nice shot!

[Tony Guest (snoopybooboo)]

Love this. Fav.

[Irene]

Lovely capture
