  3. Wonderful, compelling pictures! What sort of tree is that, do you know? It looks like a old, old tree that has been pollarded (if that's the correct term) many times. Beautiful!!

  6. I wonder if you appreciate that you have mananaged to capture an example of developing mammatus clouds there, Merisi? Very nice indeed :-)

    Vicki Lane,
    this is indeed an old, old pear tree! I shall try to remember to take a picture of the tree in different light, to show you its beauty.

    louciao,
    moody and brooding,

  8. Love your clouds photos, Merisi!
    Vienna is always so beautiful in your photos, I forgot it rains there too. Glad to learn they are called mammatus clouds.

  9. Gathering clouds tend to make me want to head for an open door for a hot cup of tea, and maybe another chapter of the book in my bag.
