A joyful day...

Today was Harmony Day in Australia.
It's a day "...to celebrate a commitment to harmony and mutual respect in a culturally diverse nation".

Orange is the colour of Harmony [Day]. Orange should then be worn everyday. If not in deed, then in thought.
...will there ever be a day when such a day is not needed?

Orange is also the colour of self-respect, joy, unity, unison, kinship, creativity, energy and purpose

...and peace.

I took all these pics using my tripod and fabulous camera. I have 2 digicams, 1 is ancient (Optio S60) and one the last digicams to feature remote capability, the other (Fuji Finepix) is as close as a digicam can get to a DSLR. The latter is what I used today.
It's very technical, creates depth of field, etc. Also, quite amazing what a timer and 12-frame burst can produce!

Hi Kahani...I love your name... It sounds a bit Hawai'ian but also, 'kahani' means story in Hindi, like a wise tale or fable.

Thank you for your lovely words, I love your blog and love your humour! You'll see me there often.
