Well, that walk was certainly worthwhile Herbert, and thanks for the tip about lower back pain. I like several of these and had fun putting ambiguous meanings to one or two e.g why would annoyed (cross) traffic not stop, and why would you want to block a co-ordinator?
Sorry just my sense of humour this morning. Nice images and I recognise the flower but not sure what it is but it may be a gardenia.

After some physical therapy, especially a well-known (but not to me) recommendation to stiffen my belly as if I was fending off a punch, I discovered a new ability to ambulate and decided to try it out this afternoon. Simultaneously, being inspired by some of the prolific LUGers, I decided to shoot every thing I saw of interest in a short walk. So, please have a look.
