Wisteria

Yes, I am taking on the challenge of #ChinesePainting again.  This time picking a class simply because of convenient time and location.  Let's see how long I can stay on this time.

Cymbidium

農曆十月初一

First day of October in the traditional Chinese calendar

“The delicate fragrance of cymbidium pervades the spacious palace, stirring thoughts of the far capital.”

Lest we forget

//The City Hall Memorial Garden was built in memory of the glorious dead in the war years between 1941 and 1945.  Inside the 12-sided Shrine are placed a Roll of Honours and wreaths.  On the wall were inscribed these words: "These had seen movement and heard music; known slumber and waking; loved; gone proudly friended".//





On Remembrance Day and always, lest we forget.
