Another 10 from Lake Garda - a really lovely delicatessen where they produce their own cheese (picnic lunch bought here), The 12th C cloisters of the church in Gargnano which were being used as a gallery for some modern art a great contrast I thought,a couple of pics outside an artist's home - she updates the murals every year, a framed brush outside another artist's gallery, chillies in a pot on a windowsill (this is one of my favourite photos!), sign for the bar on the jetty at Villa with orange trees.

Quite a bit of blue again Eric ;) :D

Thanks for the memories of the area Dianne.
It's changed a bit since 1964 when I was on the coaches, not a lot but more touristy.
I'd love one more go, as a passenger this time.

Didn't realise you had come as far afield as this during your working days Russell - it really is a lovely place. Hope you make it over for a holiday one day, let someone else do the driving though :)

This is the picture that Jen took yesterday.
I had permission to work on it.
I like them both...they are both full of impact and poignancy.
Don't know what you will make of it Jen. I hope you like it

2) Not speaking. All over a blue ice lolly!
3) Wheeeeee!
4) Looking across the boating lake...from the other direction today.
5) Stop fighting lads...there's another slice coming in at 1 o clock
6) Boy and daddy feeding the swan.
7) cream coloured 'Moggy'
8) soft top Morris 8 circa 1937
9) Royal Enfield vintage motor bike. I know not what year and the owner was not around to ask.

Jen you are welcome. I hoped it would meet with your approval.
I was on the top deck of the Preston bus when i noticed the pic you posted.
I have been thinking about doing the colour reduction all day while out and about. Couldn't wait to get home:D
I was going to leave just one poppy with colour.......but changed my mind.
Any others that you want 'fiddling with' just let me know......I will try to work my stuff on them

Some more from yesterday. I think these will please the lads on here....especially(and this with the greatest respect) some of the older lads.:D

1) A famous name in motoring......I bet they gave a hard ride.
2) Vintage Motor...wish i had though to look at what make it was. (I bet Russell will enlighten me)
3) Morris Cowley.
4) Again...failed! didn't look at the make. I remember a lot of post vans being of this type.
5) Morris Ten Four(at least that is what the badge said.
6) Morris Ten Four badge.
7) Another Morris Ten Four. Himself likes this colour.
8) Looking back....vintage cars all in a row.
9) 'Coming in for landing lads...move over...no brakes!'
10 Marc Bolam song 'Ride a white Swan'

1929, two and three quarter horse power model G. Frame no. G3129 Engine no. 5505LS
last sold at Bonhams for £3,450 inc. premium 7th JUne 2014.

I don't know my daisy from my dandelion but anything mechanical catches my eye and I need to know more.
I like the Morris's as well Margaret. me and a pal shared a Morris 8 1937 soft top, blue and ran like a bag of porridge but we loved it.

Re: Today in pictures
 
My dear old Dad bought a beat up old Morris 8......had a hard black top, but was red like the one in the pictures.....he didn't pay much for it(we hadn't got much)....he worked on it as a hobby and it took us to St Annes many times......Edisford Bridge after school to play by the river.......Ma gave him lots of stick for spending the money she had saved up to take us on trips during the school hols.....but it gave us many a very happy outing......I would guess we had the moneysworth ten times over.
It was fine as long as you didn't want to go fast.
