hundreds of skies around the world!
Typical March weather, warm and sunny one day, snow the next but Vienna always stays beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI guess the spring is somewhere in the sun, with a nice exotic drink in its hand :))
ReplyDeleteI hope spring will stay as long a winter has this year. Beautiful pictures.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures.
Vienna is a lovely place
:)
It's stretching it's new wings here in South Louisiana
ReplyDeleteSometimes where you live doesn't look much different to where I live Merisi.
ReplyDeleteI love the picture of all that mistletoe in the willow tree in the pond!
ReplyDeleteMaybe spring is not so far!
Great pictures are some consolation for winter dragging it's heels. Love all the pictures but the first is special...all that mistletoe.
ReplyDeleteThe photos are wonderful of the quiet time before the melt begins. Each day a little warmer than the last, and soon the leaves and flowers will poke above the soil's surface.
ReplyDeleteIf you check out my Décolleté blog, you'll start to feel pretty darn happy about your spring weather!
ReplyDeleteIt was feeling like spring here in East Texas, and then the past couple of days, it has been cold. I'm ready for spring to come back! Great photos!
ReplyDeleteI think Spring is playing a game of hide and seek with you. Its lurking just behind the trees. Soon very soon it will be found.
ReplyDeleteNice photos as always.
Great shots Merisi, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!

Really lovely captures, Merisi! Know you must be as ready for spring and blue, warm skies as we are here in Seattle! Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI'm having trouble finding spring too! However, your "late winter" photos are lovely. ;-)
ReplyDeleteAnd for a change we don't have snow here in Buffalo NY...Michelle
ReplyDeleteThat is a very unique bush in the first pic. Great photo! Spring is slowly coming here in Michigan. Still dead, brown and gloomy out.
ReplyDeleteIt is hanging here, just. I like your winter leaving images like icing sugar on a cake.
ReplyDeleteWell, I have to say, it is hanging out with us here. Our tulips are up! If it's any consolation, though, we're having 4 solid days of dreary rain right now. Hope that helps you feel better! Your pictures are beautiful, though!
ReplyDeleteSpring has sprung (finally) here in Southeast Missouri, USA - I'll send spring wishes your way, though!!! Great shots!!!
ReplyDeleteI have been catching up on your travel photos! Thank you so much for sharing them...you don't know how they lift my spirits when I have been looking at the same old thing day in and day out. Sometimes I am just speechless - can't even stop to comment because I can't express how much they mean to me! Thanks, Merisi! Hope spring arrives tout de suite. It looks cold there. But Easter is coming!
ReplyDeleteCatherine
I love Otto Wagner's architecture.
ReplyDeleteWe are keeping Spring to ourselves!
ReplyDeleteYou will just have to wait a bit...

Grey but it makes for a wonderful photo especially the one with the dome.
ReplyDeleteYes, where!? Here the same, cold and nasty. But soon they promise warmer days. Lets hope.
ReplyDeleteI am wondering the same thing. Beautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteNot here, looks exactly the same but without the beautiful statues:)))
