    I thought that the persimmon picture was perfection ... then I saw the one of the olives.

    Merisi, I have granted myself a reprieve from snow and work, to look at all your recent posts. Now I am definitely refreshed, and full of dreams.

    Many thanks. xo

    Thank you, Vicki Lane! :-)
    Lucky shots, I took them before I read the handbook of my camera. ;-)

    Sarah Jane,

    Merisi, what a wonderful tour you've given us, of posts within posts! Your Italian images are a wonderful contrast in their tones and colours to those of Vienna. You seriously need to publish your photos in book form (if you haven't already?). I surely can't be the first to suggest this?

    My best dreams are in Italian!!! The grapes photo is amazing! Can you believe it's going to be 70 degrees in Dallas today and possible snow next week.......what a winter! Hope you are staying warm.
    Hugs, Merisi!!

    Did someone really leave roses on a doorstep on a silver stand? I'd be afraid someone would steal them. Or was that set up for a photo shoot? Tell! Tell!
