Mysterious!
ReplyDeleteWhat are the yellow felt flowers for and why is the king sitting on a folding chair on the sidewalk?
Travel to other places can be puzzling ...
I absolutely ADORE Gold (with a little tea rose)!
ReplyDelete@ Vicki Lane,
ReplyDeletesee, this is Vienna, full of this sort of encounters:
The "King" was trying to collect money with his getup, the felt flowers were in front of a boutique that sells clothes made with felt.
@ The Girl from Cherry Blossom Street,
I love that corner too, I always look up there when I walk by.
It was another grey in grey day, and the light was very subdued. The city takes on an air of mysteriousness on days like this.
Merisi, I am glad to have seen this post after you'd left those comments.
ReplyDeletePerhaps now I do not feel quite so badly, that on this day when I could have left my gloves off, and I did see a few sights in my errand-fueled travels that truly did catch my ironic eye, I knew that I'd left my camera at home.
I have to remind myself to take that little camera along.
Thank you for these images, and for the continued inspriration. xo
Wonderful photos as always, Merisi! I really love them.

Beautiful shots. I have never visited Vienna but one day.... xv.
ReplyDeleteThey were giving out orange paper Tulips yesterday in the street (message-Go to Holland) and I thought of you with REAL tulips!!
ReplyDeleteLove the glass of yellow bits..
The composition of that first pic is wonderful, Merisi. I love the neutral lines and the pop of the yellow felt!
ReplyDeleteYou know that I am in awe of your art, Merisi, but I am amazed at the last picture-you have somehow managed to add extra magic as the figure reflected off the window onto the awning MOVES!!!! Optical illusion or not...this is indeed magic.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful views, Merisi! :-)
ReplyDeleteThese are very beautiful photos of wonderful things.
ReplyDeleteMagic and beautiful photos, Merisi, principally the "Golden Crown."
