One of the benefits of touring with Mark & Patti is that we take the time for photography. Mark is a serious with his camera and takes excellent photos. When we are with him, we think more about our own photography. Today we are playing with black and white and learning more about our on-phone editing capabilities. Although we have visited and photographed Dry Falls a number od times, there is always an opportunity to capture an image that is new to us! It’s a fun time!
Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead history.
Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
London’s National Portrait Gallery’s temporary exhibition, “Six Lives: The Stories of Henry VIII’s Queens” presents an amazing collection of portraits, jewelry, personal effects, books, costumes, and more to illustrate not only the lives of the six women who married the second Tudor king, but the effort across five centuries to keep their memory alive.
I like this one…wish I would have seen this angle myself! Well done.
