Motivator, Flickr

I did post this berry photo the other day, but then decided I would use it for my Christmas "card". I've run out of time for other options : ). Anyway, I want to wish all of my Flickr friends and all of my "local" and any of my long-time friends who live overseas (who might just check in) a very happy, healthy, peaceful and safe Christmas. May the New Year bring lots of happiness and good health! Thank you all for your friendship, which means so much to me! Thanks, fd, for Motivator - it's perfect!

A few fireworks from the August 2007 Globalfest Fireworks Competition to wish each and every one of my "local" friends, my long-time overseas friends, and my Flickr friends a very happy, healthy and safe New Year! It's hard to believe, isn't it, that seven years have passed since all the fuss about the year 2000? Thank you all for your friendship and encouragement, and for letting me share my photos with you - SO much appreciated! I'm looking forward to another year of seeing where you have been and what beautiful things in nature you have discovered!

Sorry, no roses, but hope this beautiful Amaryllis will add a little happiness to your day! Wishing all my local and far-away friends, my birding buddies, and my Flickr friends a very happy day. Hope you all get treated to something special - either by a loved one or yourself!

Happy Birthday wishes for my son, who is the oldest of my three grown "children". I still think of him as my little "man of the jungle", as he was born in Brunei, Borneo MANY years ago! I won't say how old he is today - that would be much too depressing to think about, LOL!

Just wanted to wish everyone a very Happy Easter this weekend. Hope you are fortunate enough to get together with family or friends for a peaceful, enjoyable time.

Will send this by e-mail as well as posting on Flickr, Danny (DJS Photo), just in case you don't get a chance to check Flickr in the next little while. Hope you have a fun day, however you spend it! Created with fd's Flickr Toys .

Wishing a happy day to all you mothers out there who live in places where Mother's Day is celebrated on 11th May 2008. Hope you get a chance to relax for a while!

Every day should be Father's Day, just as each and every day should be Mother's Day! However, as today is the commercial day to celebrate, I send my good wishes to all you fathers out there, including my son, who is father to the most perfect, adorable, intelligent child imaginable! Ok, bear with me, I'm his Grandma, LOL! May it be a happy day for everyone! Created with fd's Flickr Toys .

I couldn't decide what photo to use for my Canada Day wishes, but in the end thought I would use this photo of a wild Western Wood Lily, taken yesterday at Bow Valley Provincial Park. Everyone seems happy when they see these gorgeous flowers in bloom - beautiful splashes of bright orange, announcing to the world that they are finally in bloom after many months of winter. Tomorrow is supposed to be raining, which is why we decided to go to Brown-Lowery park today instead of tomorrow. Would have made a lovely Canada Day walk, if the forecast had been for sunny weather. Happy Canada Day, everyone! Stay safe!
