SL-WEEK 19: Monument
Sylvain Landry and SL week: The greatest monumental building I know – The Pothala Palace in Tibet. Tibet has been on top of my dreams since I was a little child. 2009 it came true. The journey of my life.

The Colours of China
I am very grateful that this was my fourth time in Beijing – the weather made the Great Wall almost invisible. The autumn colours – that’s what I had been waiting for, and they were there…somewhere in the fog and drizzle.
My last visit was an early morning some years ago, and the Great Wall emerged in all its splendour in the morning haze.
…this time
the most colourful things were all the umbrellas. It takes some imagination to see the colourful surroundings here, but on our way down, the fog decided to reveal some of its secrets.
A small glimpse of jewellery …
…before settling again.
This drizzle followed us and haunted us for many days – but I found other things than landscapes to shoot…and the one day on the Yangtse River with the most spectacular views…the sun came through. And not a wind.
Travel Theme: Letters
For Ailsa this week – join in on the interesting theme of Letters!
”My” letters are carved in stone in Tibet – pilgrims’ letters on their way to Pothala. The most beautiful letters in fluent and graphical style.
Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge: Small Subjects
Maybe a cup of coffee is no small subject…but as a cup, it is. Even smaller are morning dew drops. Join in with Cee’s B&W and let us know how you look upon ”Small Subjects”!
WPC: Happy Place
A happy place where I can relax and get away from a busy life…WPC wants to know my secrets…and then they are secret no more. Near and far, some easily reached when needed, some only in my world of memories.

Sitting in my garden listening to bees humming in the flowers.
Walking in ”my” forest every day…
Far away…not easily reachable, but still…in my memory a place of utmost happiness.
