Down by the Vienna River
Stadtpark Excursions


The Wien River
Looking down from high above the right bank,
onto the sun-gilded riparian band of the left shore,
nestled in a white-dusted wintry landscape
after the night's snowfall
Stadtpark

The Fawn-In-Residence
looking up, shielding his eyes
from the bright morning sun

Restaurant Steirereck
Stadtpark

Winter Sky
White clouds sailing past
red and gold Christmas baubles
shining among potted reeds

Stadtpark

Breakfast
A table in this pristine glassed-in
dining room affords a view
of the stretch of the River Wien

    Bright sunshine and cheering vision to enlighten a dull and overcast day. Love the red baubles in the reeds.

    Happy New Year Merisi, have a grand year of pictures and many many stops in Demel.

    Love that top image. It's all about the light (and the angle, and the vision . . . ) Beautifully done.
