  2. So sweet, so gentle and solo romantic.
    We are planning Christmas in Salzburg this year with daughter, grandchildren and their partners. It depends on one of them getting enough time off work, the Swiss bank (me) and my daughter's international commitments at the time. I'm crossing my fingers and holding my thumbs.

    1. Nanette,
      I photographed the blossoms against a large mural covering the firewall of an adjacent building, visible in this 2010 blog post.

  11. Is there anything more lovely than cherry blossoms?
    I love them.
    One day, I would like to go to Japan and see their famous blooms.

  12. Merisi, your trio of blossoms make a beautiful set. I enjoy looking at the images both as very accurate views of natural beauty, and also as abstractions that have delicacy, balance, intricacy, light and depth.

    Don't you just love springtime? I promise to get over to Park Avenue to find what colors the 2013 tulips are. xo

  14. Woman, you are good! I adore your work. Your lightness of color, relative to the lightness of another color 'the blue wall and pink flower' reads beautifully. You have a natural eye for chroma.
