Hello everyone! A very warm welcome to you all! The video I have selected for this post is a clip that was made in 1912 of the Titanic...and some of the survivors of the disaster. I am fascinated and glad that we are able to see footage of the real Titanic and thought this video was very well done. It is courtesy of the British Pathe.
The photos I am sharing today are ones that I took in August 2013. You just need to click on the images to see a larger view.
Thank you all so much for visiting me here! I always enjoy and appreciate reading your kind thoughts, which you are always welcome to share.
Very sobering video. Makes our troubles look small.....
ReplyDeleteThe beautiful flowers seem so long ago now. Winter is in full force across the continent! Stay warm, my friend!
Lovely flowers, the lilies down here might be what we call " Christmas Lily" and the orange one, is that a gerbera? Stay warm, Jim tells me that near Halifax it is not sooo cold!! Greetings from Jean
ReplyDeleteVideo on surullinen tapahtuma Titanicista Kauniita kukkia Kiitos Linda :)
ReplyDeleteThose orange flowers look so cheery :)
ReplyDeletetakk for video Linda, og de fine blomster :-)
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are beautiful, Linda...and apparently delicious, too. :) I especially like the lily photo.
ReplyDeleteMy grandfather's cousin survived the Titanic sinking, and went on to make a new life in the USA. If you ever get to visit Belfast, the new Titanic exhibition there is fabulous!!
ReplyDeleteLove your flower pictures too
Happy New Year x
Lovely flowers, beautiful colors and contrast.
ReplyDeleteGreetings
merci pour les images de la vidéo, et ces souvenirs du passé.
ReplyDeleteet ça fait du bien de voir des fleurs, merci Linda
The flowers are beautiful Linda!
ReplyDeleteI had not seen that footage. Thank you for sharing it. What a horrific thing those people endured. Thinking about that cold water and being plunged into it is a nightmare. However, the stories surrounding the Titanic fascinate us still today.
ReplyDeletethe ship looks a bit smaller than I imagined
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers, Linda, thanks for the pictures. I remember going to an exhibit of Titanic artifacts, it was really amazing.
ReplyDeleteLove that orange color. Ah, the good old days of summer!

Beautiful are your flower photos. Linda.
ReplyDeleteHello Linda, the colours are so warm and cheerful! I have planted Mexican sunflowers before and liked them a lot. Happy New Gardening Year ;-)
ReplyDeleteLovely flowers!
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing the video, it's an important part of history that always fascinates me. and your flower pics are lovely as always, i like the vibrant orange.
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, back in those days Belfast and Glasgow were the shipbuilding capitals of the world. It's a shame it has to be nostalgic clips to remember those glory days. Successive British governments are to blame for our loss of all our great manufacturing skills.
ReplyDeleteI love bees collecting pollen.
Fascinating clip of the Titanic. Is this video showing clips of a movie shot in 1912 or or these characters the real passengers & crew of the original ship.
ReplyDeleteLove that last photo, they are beautiful flowers
ReplyDeleteGreat video Linda. And thanks for brighten up the rainy day we have this beautiful flowers :))
ReplyDeletea kiss.
I love your pictures. I take tons of pictures of our flowers too.
ReplyDeleteI'm so ready for warmer weather. I miss spring and summer flowers!
ReplyDelete'A warm welcome'..., a warm hart... in a very cold Montreal...
ReplyDeleteA warm hug, Linda.
Lie(f)s.
It's sad to see actual footage of the Titanic before she went down, and the faces of people who probably went down with her.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers Linda !
Esas fotografías de flores contrastan con el frío invierno y hacen añorar épocas más cálidas. Un abrazo,
