This mural is so high up, it was almost a no shoot.
On Rideau Street, by a Bingo Hall
It didn’t seem to matter when I went, the sun was always a challenge.

Johnny Burnette’s music a lot of fun, and I’m glad to have heard this for the first time. TY, Laurent!

How gorgeous, Resa; I love this! The ‘car’ is especially cute.. ❤
xoxoxo
I love the nostalgic feeling! ❤ xoxoxo
They are really great murals.
A train like that is a true adventure. Was it a train like that you went on through Canada’s wilderness. What was the name of the distance you drove on, Resa?
Sorry for taking up another subject but I cannot forget the train journey you told me about ❤ 🙂
Hanna! ❤ xo
It was a modern train, with wifi and red wine and a meal on on a china plate & real forks and knives! I had my own window & my own huge seat with way more than enough leg room. Business Class on VIA Rail is amazing,
Thing is, I took a train route that stops in some very small towns, so I think it is not the regular, faster run track. It normally takes about an hour less on that route.
There is some 50 miles of extremely wild terrain about 1 hour out of Ottawa on the way to Toronto… you know the story.
As a person who loves wilderness, you might like Canada. We still have a lot left. North into the Canadian Shield, there is no manicuring… beaver dams abound … flies and mosquitoes as big as in nightmares, impenetrable woods… and beauty of a third kind many could never imagine.
Let me tell you about how amazing the train through the Canadian Rockies is, sometimes! 😀 😀
Thank you for your highly entertaining answer Resa 🙂 ❤
I've googled the railway from Ottawa to Toronto, and it seems to be very beautiful. It is deeply fascinating to check the times for tomorrow. I wish I was in Canada 🙂
During the summer there may be some repairs of the railway network near Ottawa. Just to insure that the train doesn't fall off the rails 😀
Wish you a most enjoyable week ❤ xo

Might have been high, but you got some great shots of the mural. A nice take back to yesteryear.
I love the yesteryear imagery! Nostalgia is a fave design draw for me.
A really detailed, exciting and adventurous painting dear Resa. I am so pleased that you managed to eventually take the photograph and show us the result. Big hug. Love Ralph xoxox ❤ #<
TY, Ralph! ❤ The sun was a huge killer, but my eyes have recovered, & can focus again. {{Hugs}} xoxo <#
Here ! Borrow my sunglasses. Ooops, I see your avatar is already wearing a pair. Did you lose them ? 😉 ❤ xoxo #<
Although high, it’s definitely well done.
The sun is the bane of the photographer, I totally agree with that. Perhaps it is just for us mural hunters that the sun has a vendetta against. It is an interesting choice, placing it so high.
It’s a nice piece of nostalgia, a time when the railway was the hub of the community before cars and lorries took over.
So beautiful, so nostalgic. Great piece.
Amazing. Great photos Resa.
