memorial day at montrose harbour

"just an ordinary day becomes adventure
such sweet adventure, i never knew
and life would be rainbow as we learn
the secret of the miracles that love can do
from moment to moment with you."
- henry mancini, composer

it is "memorial day" today in the USA, a holiday. and they had queen's weather. my brother and his daughter jill brought me to montrose park to shoot chicago's skyline. that old song was playing somewhere behind me as i shot this.

thank you for your kind visits and comments; know that they are immensely appreciated.

Super processing and compositor

[Henri Russell]

I love lighthouses. Of course, we don't have any around here.

[Osia Strasner]

Nice warm light to this, Vikki, and I just have to inquire as to the "Queen's weather".....not quite sure we use that phrase around here, even though I suspect it must mean that it was lovely!!
Wish we had some lighthouses here....this one is beautiful!
