Well, it's a super photo, Jenny!

That's what I thought Andy - I'd noticed that she smiled such a lot these last few weeks

That's very true, Jenny. Smiling at meeting the new Prime Minister and smiling in everything I've seen her in these past few weeks. Rather as if she knew that she had led a life well lived and she was happy with what she had achieved, and it had been so much! I think I might have been smiling too!

Such a sad day. Beautiful picture.

Yes it's a very sad time here - but I still find it hard to believe that she's gone. I've not known any other monarch except her.

Quel beau sourire ! On n'est pas prêt de l'oublier !

Merci beaucoup Rosemme. Vous avez tellement raison - elle avait un magnifique sourire, et je ne l'oublierai pas non plus.

Bedankt Fred, voor deze mooie woorden.

Merci pour cette belle série de portraits
Bonne nouvelle semaine et merci pour tes fidèles visites
toujours appréciées et attendues

Merci pour tes adorables mots Roland. J'ai toujours hâte de voir tes photos et je sens que je dois les commenter. Je suis ravie que mes photos vous aient plu.

My condolences for such an irreparable loss. Kind regards,Anton.

Thank you Anton. Although I never met her - she was a constant in my life and it will be so awful without her. She was the glue that held us all together.

most beautiful and tender portrait
great tribute

Grazie mille Annemarie, non posso credere che avesse 96 anni - di certo non sembrava.
