Rainbow Pride


I've been pushing myself out in the mornings again to go walking, I went through a brief period where I got lazy and it became too easy to stay at home.  So early one morning when there wasn't many people out and about I snapped this photo of one of the many rainbow pride coloured benches in town. I like how the colours light up the rest of the gray.

Great pic and yay for being back out in the mornings!
3C here, I wait till I have to walk to my company, but come warmer temps I tend to copy you :-)
Beautiful lights and quite a sign of hope for tolerance.

The morning is the best time of day to to get out and photograph. That's my humble opinion.

What a great way to brighten up a boring old park bench. Bring it on.

I like these early bird moments. You´ve got the hole City for yourself. Nice bench.

I also got out of the daily walking habit due to the pandemic when it was just easier to stay inside. I'm also trying to get back to it. The bench is pretty--love the rainbow colors and pride encouragement.
Can't miss that bench. Keep up the good work!

Auckland Metropolis Museum

In amongt the modern new highrise buildings in Auckland City is this smaller vintage building that is currently for sale (I'd buy it if I had the money).   My research found that:  "It was designed by English-born architect Charles Towle and erected in the early 1930s as the Church of Christ, Scientist, the building's Graeco-Roman facade has towering columns that frame its impressive entranceway, with three ornate timber doors decorated with leadlight inserts providing access to the expansive foyer. Arched ceilings dominate the former congregational high stud space beyond the foyer and numerous picturesque windows provide a light, airy feel and an ambience many office buildings lack. The building housed congregational and Sunday school services for 70 years until it was sold and converted into office space in 2003. A significant refurbishment was also carried out with care taken to ensure that the building's distinctive character remained intact. Special architectural ...

Grace Brothers

  We have 2 new chickens, both black ladies. If any of you are familiar with British comedy tv shows you will recognize the names we have given them. This one is named Miss Brahms. And this one is named Mrs Slocombe. At the moment we have them in a temporary shelter next to the Special Patrol Group that we've had for the last 9 months just so they can get to know each other before we intigrate the black ones in with the brown ones. These ones give us a white coloured egg whereas the brown shavers give us brown coloured eggs. Linking up with  Tuesday Treasures ,  Happy Tuesdays  and   Wordless Wednesday .

Vondel

  I nthe heart of Devonport in Auckland is this little block of businesses. In my younger days I worked in this suburb as a legal typist for lawyers and to see it now as it is, it's made many changes over the years. This building is surrounded by older style buildings in the main street with businesses such as shoe shops, clothing shops, professionals, cafes, bars, restaurants etc. It's a very upmarket suburb with quite expensive houses along the waterfront. Vondel in the above photo is a restaurant but upon looking up their website, there wasn't alot of information about who they are. Linking up with  Weekend Reflections   and the  Weekend Roundup .
