Thank you for that.<br /><br />Hi Jennifer Fabulous,<br />If you hadn't commented on this post, I wouldn't have known what to think :) It would be very interesting for me to know what you think of the Duchess's personality.<br /><br />Hi BrandNewStudio,<br />Thank you very much. I'm glad you like my photos and the way I have presented them.<br /><br />Hi Riya,<br />Thank you for your visit and your comment. I never thought that buying a house would be such a tricky thing. I will be doing it for the first time, and finding something I like isn't easy at all.Olgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10652566920769043373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3682991289355439012.post-52404166558383558032011-10-18T16:30:33.810-04:002011-10-18T16:30:33.810-04:00All the best for your next exhibition.

I like the contrast of the light and the patterns created by the shadow. <br /><br />Your autumn seems to have progressed much faster than mine. To change colors red, leaves need enough sunlight and cold temperature just above freezing point. The ninth photo shows kaleidoscopic changes of colors. Comfortable sunlight makes all the people happy.

So sorry to he...Your photos are so beautiful, Olga! So sorry to hear about your father's illness and the multiple stresses in your life. Maybe your thoughts about the Duchess are a way to think about some of the larger issues of life and get a brief respite from the cares of today. I think the Duchess' story illustrates the importance of love -- wherever and however we find it. My brother, who is a charming, successful doctor, did not marry until he was 58 and then his bride was a 24 year old Thai woman he had met while lecturing at a university in Bangkok. There was a lot of eye-rolling in the family until we had a chance to meet her and realized that she was, indeed, his soulmate: she's a bright, supportive wife who doesn't hesitate to challenge him at times and who is the only person I've ever met who is even more frugal than my brother. It was truly meant to be and has brought them so much happiness. So why not? Good for them and good for the Duchess!Dr. Kathy McCoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02903015507894951725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3682991289355439012.post-28459316358071974062011-10-16T13:26:47.885-04:002011-10-16T13:26:47.885-04:00Great insight with wonderful photos.
