Ah Ha! So that's where we got the stormy weather from!!!
ReplyDeleteBut no one looks like that here...
Too beautiful..as always!
Merisi, your photos never cease to amaze me. You have a wonderful way of "seeing" pictures in your mind before you take them with your camera ... and that is a God-given talent.
ReplyDeleteExcellent work, my friend!
brilliant!
ReplyDeleteHello Merisi,
ReplyDeleteThose skies and the stormy lighting give such drama, and a certain elegance, to these photographs.
It is hard to pick a favorite from amongst this post. Every picture is a gem. Your words shine as always.

What a dramatic sky! I like the picture with the lonely tourist hiding under an umbrella.
ReplyDeleteHi Merisi -
ReplyDeleteThat photo of the Reflecting Pool has to be one of my all time favorites. The reflexion forms almost a shell shape which gives it a rococo feel. Gorgeous. Have a wonderful weekend! Hope you have sun.

Your pictures are extraordinary. I especially like the picture of the Roman Ruins Reflecting Pool. The stormy sky adds power.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots, as always - and while you look towards summer here the first autumn rains have just begun to fall.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my SWF post and your kind words you left about my photo. I took extra time and looked through some of your past posts. You have an excellent blog. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteJust out of view in the last photo is the Rudolfsheim Pfarrkirche (a bit of a favourite of mine).
ReplyDeletePainted skies, and stormy weather... :-)
ReplyDeleteLove your storm drama. it certainly makes a beautiful backdrop.
ReplyDeleteI think my favorite is the blackbird on the statue hand. its fascinating.
Have a wonderfu weekend Merisi.

ReplyDeleteThat Carrion Crow has a comfortable perch. I don't think that spring can be far away now!

ReplyDeleteMarble statutes have always been a favourite with me, and these are no exception. Wonderful, Merisi!
