What a glorious place to soak up the morning sun!
ReplyDeleteAnd Tausendschon is a glorious name.
I've been in Vienna for 3 summers attending the Uni Deutschkurs and I fell in love with the city and its surroundings.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the amazing photos you post on this blog.
They can really catch the spirit and the atmosphere of the city.

ReplyDeleteVicki Lane,
all the pictures from Tuesday through today were shot with my 85mm lens, even the reader on the rose bench. Shows you what a hard worker that lens really is (and I am still far from being its mistress, there are still a lot of possibilities and mysteries I need to unravel!).
Matteo,
capturing the spirit and the atmosphere of this beautiful city is what I am trying to learn to achieve, and I cannot thank you enough for your feedback! It makes me get up early or walk for another hour or two, even on days when I'd rather sit down and live the Kaffeehaus life! ;-)
Good morning Merisi.
ReplyDeleteOnce again, I have had a catch up view of your most recent postings, and once again, you have so lifted my spirit.
Thank you for the images and words that lead us to a beautiful way of viewing life and experiencing beautiful opportunities all around us.
