The following photos are my own, which I took with my cellphone. This is my first attempt at photographing a sunset. I was in the hallway of a building and as I walked down the hall I saw outside the windows this beautiful sunset! Not wanting to miss this opportunity, I decided to capture the photos right where I was. You can click on any image to see a larger view.

Hello, Linda! These quotes you chose for today are what I needed! So wise and yet some made me laugh. The first one especially amused me, so true, cats would have pushed everything off had the earth been flat and thank God it isn't LOL! Oh, I love the sunset that you captured on your phone!
ReplyDeleteHello Linda
ReplyDeleteHappy 1st of March, may it be a good month for you.
I liked your sunset photographs and I enjoyed the Beatles video - goodness that was back in 1964! The years go by so quickly.
Sending my good wishes to you in Montreal.
All the best Jan
dear linda! monday morning greetings from kuala lumpur! today is the first day of new semester in my university. My classes are scheduled tomorrow. anyway for this entry, i choose this quote: Hard times are like a washing machine, they twist, turn and knock us around, but in the end we come out cleaner, brighter and better than before...indeed!!! anyway, let's also pray that the current Gulf conflict/war will end soon...we really want to live in a peaceful world...
ReplyDeleteHappy March Linda! I like all the thoughts of turning negativity around. That was a beautiful sunset!
ReplyDeleteYour photos of a peaceful sunset are nicely framed, haha.
ReplyDeleteI would be very cross at the parking barrier arm shenanigans.
The lamb on wheels is a nice story.
What a beautiful sunset!
ReplyDeleteLots of good quotes in this post.I think my favorites were the one about the washing machine, and the one about the bend in the road.
ReplyDeleteHi, this isn't letting me comment with my name. I am Terra from terragarden.blogspot.com I want to say you found so many charming images. My favorite is "play in the puddles." Good advice.
ReplyDeleteRespond to negativity will drained our energy..
ReplyDeleteLove your sunset shots!
...it's easy to negative, always work to be positive!
ReplyDeleteI love. that first one! I'm still smiling. 😊
ReplyDeleteI love the "mind like a parachute" quote but it was actually Thomas Dewar (the whisky guy) who said it. He had many great quotes. I call myself a realistic optimist or a cheerful pessimist. I can be both.
ReplyDeleteOh, those videos about the disabled lamb and the opossum! So cute!
ReplyDeleteLove the Pooh Bear quote!!
ReplyDeleteI liked all those memes. Especially Pooh Bear and the one about cats pushing everything off a flat earth.
ReplyDeleteHappy March to you!
The less you respond to negative people, the more peaceful life becomes. That's a lesson one learns very quickly ( hopefully).
ReplyDeleteAnother great one is "It is what it is". Accepting that brings a peaceful life. Have a great week, Linda.
That is a very pretty sunset.
ReplyDeleteYou always lift me up to start the week.
ReplyDeleteBeing negative only makes a difficult journey more difficult....this is so TRUE!
