Brand new Flickr experience, a collage, new interface and FREE terabyte.

Do you have photo albums and videos on Flickr? It's a brand new Flickr experience. I really like the new interface a lot. Although the banner reminds a little my Google + one. That's cool!

We get a FREE terabyte. But...how much storage is that? Well, based on what I read a person can store about 250,000 high resolution photos. That is totally awesome!

I have to say that I really like the collage new look. You get right to the photos, you can open them and even get full screen for a closer look. I also like to be able to click on sets.

Take a look at my craft product design collage here.

Do you have your photo albums on Flickr? How do you like the new look?

A short visit to the Big Apple.

You might have thought I was going to show you a few shots of New York, didn't you? Well...not this time...We have a Big Apple in Ontario as well. The Big Apple Pie Store in Colborne in Cramahe Township, Ontario. We stopped by a short visit this past long weekend. Have you been there?

You can have a nice lunch, watch how pies are being made, visit the little zoo...

They make the most amazing apple pies! They actually make many kinds of pies but we love apples! Take a look at this photos above. Can you see the big chunks of apple on these pies ready to bake? I actually couldn't leave without a shot of pie crust being mixed. Don't you want to have apple pie now?

How did you spend your long weekend?

Give cheers to their queen on her birthday. Happy Victoria Day!

A vintage image of the celebration of Queen Victoria's birthday on the grounds of the second Government House of Upper Canada (the first outside of Fort York), at the corner of King and Simcoe Streets, Toronto. This image is dated 1854 as it says on the hand written note. It was Queen Victoria's 35th birthday.

Victoria Day also symbolizes the unofficial beginning of the summer social calendar. And it is going to be a beautiful one. I hope you will enjoy yours!

Last year I posted some interesting facts about Queen Victoria. Did you know that she was the trend setter of white wedding gowns? Queen Victoria loved art and got many portraits done. Read this post here.

Give cheers to their queen on her birthday. Happy Victoria Day!
