Your "Shades of Green" picture proves that a door can be adorable. Shades of apple leaf, a dream-touched green with blue in it...
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! And the clotheslines set my heart a-flutter!
ReplyDeleteLove laundry scenes juxtaposed against ethereal scenes. Brings them down to earth...you remember that real people live there, too.
ReplyDeletecheers
It is such a fascinating, interesting place. Great postcards.
ReplyDeleteAah a morning in Venice, so lovely it would be, and your first image is wonderful. I have so missed viewing your posts these past couple of days~ Be well~
ReplyDeleteIf I say again "I wish I were there" will I sound like a broken record? But it's true! Gorgeous photos, as always, showing details of Venice I am also attuned to.
ReplyDeleteHi Merisi! Was just watching a PBS show called Visions of Italy and thought I'd drop in and see what's going on in your world, and where do I find you?.......Venice! How appropriate! I love your last photo. Is the purple flower a hydragenia? Enjoy your springtime visit to Venice. I SO enjoy your "postcards" from wherever you are.

LOL on the wash photo. It looks like if the line broke, the wash was going into teh canal for another rise.
ReplyDeleteHello Merisi,
ReplyDeleteI have so enjoyed being able to take a look at your most recent posts ... from so many places!
McDonald's coffee can be quite all right, even if the ambiance of the "cafe" is not quite close to elegant.
Your Venetian pictures make me wonder why it is that I only visited that city once.
New York is now enjoying early spring warmth. Our recent record snowfall seems distant history.
I want to get over to Central Park early next week. Too much work in the way until then.
Best wishes. xo
poetry, this is simply poetry! oh, well, what? did I say this before? :)) well... I cannot help it :)!

ReplyDeleteTokyo was suffered from the super gale yesterday, phew! But your photos now bring me to the beautiful world. Soothing :)

Every picture a work of art. What a painters eye you have, Merisi.
ReplyDeleteveri word: flingers. Oh you have magic fingers alright.
Are the photos beautiful? Yes! But the only thing that came to mind as I scrolled through them was, "How the heck does the laundry every dry with all that moisture?!"
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos, Merisi. I would love to visit Venice some day...
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
Only a few weeks now and I'll be back in Italy, and in Venezia.....
ReplyDeleteMy favorite city in the whole world, Venice. I loved wandering far off the tourist routes, and getting lost in the maze of alleys. Your photos do it justice.
ReplyDeletelovely!
ReplyDeleteEach one is a work of art, Merisi!
ReplyDeleteHow cam so much colour happen where your camera just happens to go? You are amazing.
