Lovely shots. Particularly love the second shot!
ReplyDeleteI am just envy- envy- envious of these signs of superb quality of life in Vienna: all cities should be so photogenic.
ReplyDeletebtw, Merisi, lemon juice and soda water (seltzer) is a genius drink: just tried it.
The first photo gives me Sehnsucht for warm summer days in Vienna. Very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos; thanks for visiting my blog yesterday.

Merisi, I thought that you were going to start writing poetry with the first discription of the curve. (Probably because I was in that summer mood in my last post. Come over to OWL and read, won't you?)This first photo is a lovely late morning shade shot. All of these captures have an entirely different mood, and they contrast in color,texture, and style. ...and all part of the summer feeling for you? Thanks for sharing. <3
ReplyDeleteThe 2nd one is amazing!
ReplyDeleteAnyone can take a picture of flowers and trees and evoke ahs and ohhs, but you have taken an architectural detail and done the same thing...that's rare talent...you have it dripping from your fingertips into your camera lens and onto the computer just for me...and others smart enough to come by!

secret word for verification is verat..close enough to the truth!
The Camomile Flowers are beautiful. I also really like the summer shade one.
ReplyDeleteEvery photo, M, is like a small painting ..
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how many different shades of green there are.
ReplyDeleteMerisi, I couldn't choose which picture I like best: they are all very attractive images!
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful shots. The first one took my breath away. The second one captivated me for all those shades of green!
ReplyDeleteThe shot of the Camomile flowers in the earthern pot is a prize winner. Love the framing and the color tones.
ReplyDeleteI swear, Merisi, that if you could find a garbage can you could make it beautiful. Amazing.
ReplyDeleteAh -- the first shot like an abstract painting! And the waxen perfection of the lemon flower! Thank you, Merisi!
ReplyDeleteEach photo is a gem. I can feel the warmth of the summer.
ReplyDeleteMerisi, camomile is my favorite scent, but I had never seen the flowers until I saw your picture. I love the lemon tree bloom, too. It reminds me of orchids. Beautiful pictures, as always.
