  1. I don't know why but I've always found knight's armor to be spooky. It just looks creepy. Hmm.

  10. It may be "wordless" but without those puns it just wouldn't be the same. Very very clever.

  20. My daughter is going to Quebec for a class trip in a couple of weeks. I've never been to Quebec unless you count the airport on a layover on my way to Vancouver. LOL

  21. Great suit of armour - you have really managed to keep the details of the metal while showing the idiosyncrasy of its location!

  22. You've really captured a range of beautiful silver and pewter coloured tones and hues in this photo.

  24. After you posted on my blog about my own itty bitty knight in shining armor, I was determined to find the one you had mentioned!

    Glad I did.

    Mine is just mini-me to yours!
