Blue March Skiesand a lonely cloud

I took all these pictures
on Monday shortly after noon,
standing in the middle of
Lainzer Strasse in the
13th District, moving only a few feet
back and forth, jumping to safety
when a streetcar approached.
Just as I was turningto leave, I snapped one last picture
of the house opposite -
I could have spent the rest of the day,
looking up and capturing what I saw,
walking to the end of the street
and back and then
start over again ....

those skies are BLUE! and your street filled with beauties.
ReplyDeleteMerisi, decidedly, you're a primary colors girl. And yet, you seem to like pastels, too. Where does the truth lie, between you and your lenses?
ReplyDeleteI swear, you have the most delicious blue skies.
ReplyDeleteYou are surrounded by beauty. What a fine way to live.
ReplyDeleteA visit to your blog is like a breathe of fresh air, which is a very welcome change from my cold grey day.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful skies! (I remember blue ...) And such a lovely point of view! Those wonderful eaves!
ReplyDeleteLooks so fresh and pristine. March is here!
ReplyDeleteYou have such beautiful ornamentation over there. I like all the mouldings and scroll decoration. It is a beautiful day in the sunshine.
ReplyDeleteLoved that first photo of the huge puffy cloud!!
ReplyDeleteah, blue sky. Still looking for a day with no clouds and no snow either. Woke up with another half inch today.
