Morning in the City
Viennese Moments

Antique Storefront
The sun slowly pulling
away the shadows of the night

Chairs and Passementerie
Antique tassels taking
a front row seat

Morning Symphony
Shadows and light
playing in a courtyard nearby

    The photos may be of years ago, but the light is the same today. Finally, the darkest winter in 50 years has ended. Not only that, but the flu that has taken over my household shows signs of leaving, too. I can't wait to get up and outside again.

    Wishing you all a wonderful weekend, filled with sunshine or whatever you wish for or need,
    Merisi

    Sorry to learn that you have been entrenched with the dreaded flu, but happy that you are now on the mend - just in time to greet the spring. Touch wood, it passed over this house, but I know it has really knocked people for six.

    It's sunny in Warsaw today, but I have a bad cold. Glad to hear that you are on the mend. Have a good weekend, Merisi.

    The whole world is a play ground for shadows and light, but never more so than at morning and dusk.
