  1. Simon,
    I'd rather go on a pelagic trip with you than standing up there! ;-)

  3. Mary,
    it is, isn't it?

    Theresa Cheek,
    the verdigris, blue and white are a winning pairing, the clouds looking as if they were out to play, and the cables crisscrossing, it must be Vienna! ;.)

  4. I have a passion for (mostly old-fashioned) sculpture, even the mere architectural ones are interesting to me.

  9. Wien is wonderful, élégant... A pretty city ! I like your photo. the buildings and monuments of wien are like pastries with gold and cream, it is a beautiful image of a real dream. I love Wien.
    You know what ? Last week on TV, I saw the chief Sarah Wiener in Wien ! In a Tea room-cake store, she cooks a Sachertorte! Woooooo ! wonderful !
    Nice week-end Merisi !

  12. Svet,
    I wanted the cables included. After all, Vienna is not a museum. ;-)
