Popular Post Tizeye Posted December 6, 2019 Author Popular Post Share #13 Posted December 6, 2019 Tonight went to the 41st annual Christmas in the Park which featured 9 century old Tiffany leaded glass mounted to lightboxes from the local Tiffany artwork museum and the Bach Festival Choir. While I have been to other concerts in the park, including the Orlando Philharmonic, it was packed. Tomorrow evening is lighting the tree, Santa, and the Morse Museum is free. The artwork displayed this evening is typically not part of the regular display at the Museum, but probably from storage. While many shops were open on Park Ave, it was closed to traffic and became a pedestrian walkway tonight and tomorrow. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Tizeye Posted December 7, 2019 Author Popular Post Share #17 Posted December 7, 2019 While the first photo leading off the thread this month (and avatar) was from a time limited exhibit on "whimsical sculpture" at the Albin Polasek Museum, he was a local sculpture artist where his home/studio is now the museum. Below are some of his sculptures spread about the property. The Sower (1911), Forest Idyll (1924), Man Carving His Own Destiny (1907), Primeval Struggle (1931), Mermaid Mama (1962) These were taken as part of an e-book trying to write but the only allow photos for personal non-commercial use. Not certain what I will do, perhaps oil to canvas. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tizeye Posted December 8, 2019 Author Share #18 Posted December 8, 2019 Aggressive photobombing. They demanded I take their picture and wouldn't leave until I did when they saw me setting up to take a picture of the solo sax player. While the street was closed to traffic in downtown Winter Park, making a pedestrian walkway, was crowed later when the movie in the park (Grinch who Stole Christmas) ended. Most people (around 300+) were seated on the park grounds a block away watching the movie. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could use some young blood in here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post shootingstar Posted December 18, 2019 Popular Post Share #22 Posted December 18, 2019 Our area tends to get a drier snow than British Columbia or Ontario. So for light snow, we use snowbrush machines...that have huge bristly rollers.. The last photo is what you see in spring, summer....many local wedding parties, school prom groups love their photo taken at their privotal life event on the Peace Bridge. Every day whenever I go on the bridge, I see someone snapping photos on /in and of the bridge. Daily unless they are locals living in the neighbourhood. There was huge local bitching about the $22 million price tag for this pedestrian-bike bridge over the glacial turquoise Bow River. But now it's done 7 yrs. ago, and....it is now photographed worldwide as part of city's branding image. Even the biggest local humbug would grudgingly with secret pride, take visitors to see this cyclindrical bridge. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tizeye Posted December 24, 2019 Author Share #37 Posted December 24, 2019 12 minutes ago, maddmaxx said: I always liked driving through Christmas..........never stopped. Up next...........Midway. I guess I should have explained a little. Christmas is an actual town deriving it's name from Ft Christmas (Seminole Indian War era) completed on Christmas Day. It is on of the main highways (SR50) leading to the beach or Kennedy Space Station. They have the perpetual Christmas/Manger display. The original post office is now preserved on the Fort Christmas pioneer village grounds. The 3rd generation US Post Office building on SR50 is active and a mecca for sending cards with the "Christmas, FL" postmark. Can't use the auto cancellation process and they set up a couple of self-service kiosk in the lobby with ink pad and official "Christmas" post office stamp for you (not a postal employee) to hand cancel each stamp on each card. Then a special box to deposit them in to avoid the auto process. There is actually a very aggressive cycling group, typically about 40 riders, that does a 50 mile loop at constant speeds I wouldn't consider out to Christmas.
