Wistful Cat
Is that yummy chicken treat only for you? Can I have some? Why it's all that I have wished for.

@ Full Moon Sky
"A fun fact, Tarzan! Sepia is edible and used today in cuisine such as the Italian dish Spaghetti al nero di seppia (spaghetti with squid ink)."
"I'll pass on that, I think, Oliver!"
Full Moon Sky
By the light of the full moon, so many possibilities! Faeries dance, wolves howl, and stories of hauntings, paranormal abound! Believe at your own risk!

@ Palm Trees in the Gloaming
“A picture of this would look lovely printed on Christmas cards, wouldn't it, Tarzan?” Carruthers said.
“It certainly would, Carruthers!" said Tarzan.
Palm Trees in the Gloaming
As the sun sinks lower into the West, these Palms look more and more like the pom poms on the end of someone's hat.

@ Travel Trunks
Tarzan consulted the tour guide. "It says here that the largest species of cuttlefish in the world is the Australian giant cuttlefish Sepia apama which can grow up to 3 feet or one metre in length. In contrast, the largest British species is the common cuttlefish Sepia officinalis, around 17 inches/45cm long."
"Aw, bless!" remarked sammy.
Travel Trunks
Sitting patiently outside the station, these trunks are waiting to be loaded into the cargo bay of the next train, taking the traveler to their next destination.

@ Woodland Bide-a-Wee
"bunny, I've got something called "sepia effect" on my camera. I've got a feeling it’s faulty, though. It just makes everything go all brown!”
"Oh, Tarzan, that's what it's supposed to do! See all these exhibits?"
Woodland Bide-a-Wee
When out on a ramble, a sturdy bench and table can be a welcome sight! Rest your legs for some minutes, perhaps enjoy a drink and a snack, before continuing your walk.

@ Bear in the Steamer Trunk
"Tarzan, what's brown and sticky?"
Tarzan pondered for a while. "I don't know, Oliver, what is brown and sticky?"
"A stick!"
Bear in the Steamer Trunk
Come on, let's play! I need a change of scenery, take me to the park, push me in the swing! I'll be your bestie, you'll find I can keep a secret!

@ Teddy Bear Chest
“A picture of this would look lovely printed on Christmas cards, wouldn't it, Tarzan?” Frank said.
“It certainly would, Frank!" said Tarzan.
Teddy Bear Chest
Tucked away in an old steamer trunk, the furry bundle of love and friendship, Bear is happy to come out to play!

@ Hazy Wheat Field
"Tarzan, what's brown and sticky?"
Tarzan pondered for a while. "I don't know, Inga, what is brown and sticky?"
"A stick!"
Hazy Wheat Field
Wheat sways gently in the breeze, calling the adventurer to walk along the field, breathing deeply of ancient grains.

@ Nature's Wallpaper
“A picture of this would look lovely printed on Christmas cards, wouldn't it, Tarzan?” Toby said.
“It certainly would, Toby!" said Tarzan.
Nature's Wallpaper
These small, delicate wildflowers blossoming in meadows and fields, raising their heads to the sky and sun, are a joy to behold. They may be overlooked as insignificant beside hothouse colourful flowers, but they are part of Mother Nature's creation and are here a vision in sepia!

@ Grandpa's Garage
"Tarzan, what's brown and sticky?"
Tarzan pondered for a while. "I don't know, Otto, what is brown and sticky?"
"A stick!"
Grandpa's Garage
Tucked away in the old garage, that smells of old motor oil, and grease from the tools hanging on the walls. Grandpa takes great care of his first car, hung onto through all the years. He and Grandma started their journey in life in that car, there are so many memories of flat tires, trips to the shore and a growing family! [Route 66, Arizona]

@ Butterfly in the Meadow
“Oh hello, Tarzan!” cried Roskaizan. “Didn’t we bump into each other in Quebec back in September? This is quite a different journey, isn't it!”
Butterfly in the Meadow
Alighting on the wild daisies growing proudly in the meadow, the hiker can enjoy the beauty of nature, whether planted or flitting through the air.

@ Creeping Dawn
"Cookie, just look at this exhibit! Isn't it amazing?”
"It certainly is, Tarzan! Perhaps they'll have it in postcard size in the gift shop!"
Creeping Dawn
Watching for the light to touch the earth, revealing the rich browns of fall.

@ Tracks of Travel
"Starlight, just look at this exhibit! Isn't it amazing?”
"It certainly is, Tarzan! Perhaps they'll have it in postcard size in the gift shop!"
Tracks of Travel
The only thing consistent in traveling the rails is the width of them. The gentle rocking rhythm, changing landscapes, and interesting passengers to talk to make this an adventure you will covet for a life time.

@ Canyon Vista
"Snowball, I've got something called "sepia effect" on my camera. I've got a feeling it’s faulty, though. It just makes everything go all brown!”
"Oh, Tarzan, that's what it's supposed to do! See all these exhibits?"
Canyon Vista
Sunlight scattering off into the Western horizon, pulling back the bright colors, leaves behind a vista of shades of former glory, but still beautiful to behold.

@ Glacier Ridge
Oh look ... an appropriately coloured pet!
Glacier Ridge
Winds howling across the bare peaks, just looking at the scene can make you shiver! Glacier snows cover the lands, sparkling like diamonds in the soft sunlight, but oh that cold!

@ Windmill in Old Amsterdam
Tarzan consulted the tour guide. "It says here that the largest species of cuttlefish in the world is the Australian giant cuttlefish Sepia apama which can grow up to 3 feet or one metre in length. In contrast, the largest British species is the common cuttlefish Sepia officinalis, around 17 inches/45cm long."
"Aw, bless!" remarked nicki.
Windmill in Old Amsterdam
At first glance this is a very peaceful evening scene of a trio out for an evening trip in their rowing boat. However, in the background is "De Riekermolen", a historic polder drainage windmill that dates back to 1636. It sits proudly on the bank of the River Amstel in Amsterdam. Although not visible behind the trees, it stands alongside a statue of Rembrandt that celebrates the many sketches he made in this area.

@ Grandfather Tree
“You know what, Tarzan?” said snuggle. “Seeing all these amazing photographs makes me want to take up photography myself!”
“Sounds like a great idea!" replied Tarzan. "There’s an evening class you can join when we get back!"
Grandfather Tree
If these branches could talk, held inside the bark, what stories they could tell! Tales of storms, standing and bending in the fierce winds, or sheltering small bunnies in the heat of the day. Standing for close to a century, Grandfather tree is happy to stay on the job.

@ Snowdrop Flowers
“Oh hello, Tarzan!” cried Meadow. “Didn’t we bump into each other in Quebec back in September? This is quite a different journey, isn't it!”
Snowdrop Flowers
Spring blooms slowly, and those who take notice of signs around them will find Snowdrops peeking out in the early spring, blending with the pockets of snow left for the warming sun to melt away.

@ Man's Best Friend
Tarzan consulted the tour guide. "It says here that the largest species of cuttlefish in the world is the Australian giant cuttlefish Sepia apama which can grow up to 3 feet or one metre in length. In contrast, the largest British species is the common cuttlefish Sepia officinalis, around 17 inches/45cm long."
"Aw, bless!" remarked Dschinghis Khan.
Man's Best Friend
Truly is a dog a man's best and most loyal friend! Just look at the trust, love and devotion in his eyes looking up at you. He will forgive your faults because his is unconditional love.

@ Sepia Moon
“You know what, Tarzan?” said Starlight. “Seeing all these amazing photographs makes me want to take up photography myself!”
“Sounds like a great idea!" replied Tarzan. "There’s an evening class you can join when we get back!"
Sepia Moon
Fair moon, to thee I sing,
Bright regent of the heavens,
Say, why is everything
Either at sixes or at sevens?

@ Sepia Sparrows
"Listen to this, Saphira! 'When threatened, cuttlefish may release an ink called sepia in a cloud that confuses predators and allows the cuttlefish to get away.' I never knew that, did you?"
"No, I didn't. Another fun fact, Tarzan!"
Sepia Sparrows
These little brown sparrows stand out in sharp focus against a hazy background of winter foliage. Let's hope our feathered friends manage to find sustenance in these cold, dark days ... however, they are never far from human habitations and plenty of humans are kind enough to leave out seeds and nuts.

@ Morning Mists
"Paddy, just look at this exhibit! Isn't it amazing?”
"It certainly is, Tarzan! Perhaps they'll have it in postcard size in the gift shop!"
Morning Mists
Silently gliding upward, announcing the new day with gentle light seeping across the meadow, it's the start of a new adventure.

@ Star Spangled Banner
"Edwina, just look at this exhibit! Isn't it amazing?”
"It certainly is, Tarzan! Perhaps they'll have it in postcard size in the gift shop!"
Star Spangled Banner
O say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
O say, does that star spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

@ Pensive Pup
“You know what, Tarzan?” said Ugie. “Seeing all these amazing photographs makes me want to take up photography myself!”
“Sounds like a great idea!" replied Tarzan. "There’s an evening class you can join when we get back!"
Pensive Pup
Aww-w-w! This black and tan pup looks so sad! Has his human gone out for a walk and left him behind, instead of letting him gambol alongside? Or perhaps he wasn't allowed a tasty-looking treat from the dining table! Never mind, I'm sure no one can resist that wistful little face for very long!

@ Irish Water Horse
As Tarzan's tour of "World of Sepia" comes to an end, he receives a seasonally appropriate gift!
Olive (I Love) Fall
I love fall, don't you? These olive-hued flowers are a reminder of a vibrantly colored season now gone, yielding to the softly muted greens of fall.
Irish Water Horse
According to folklore, the aughisky or Irish water horse sometimes comes out of the water to gallop on land and if the aughisky can be caught and tamed then it will make the finest of steeds provided it is not allowed to glimpse the ocean. But beware, there is great danger! If you are riding the water horse and it catches sight of water, it will head into its depths and you will be unable to dismount!
Tarzan has completed him tour of "World of Sepia"! Please select another pet as visitor, so it can also tour an art gallery!
