So very beautiful! The top composition is my favourite. Well done.
ReplyDeleteThank you, JM! :-)
DeleteFor your information:
ReplyDeleteI have republished an old 2010 blog post about the Dreimäderlhaus, just before this one. The older one may be interesting especially for those who are looking for more information about the house at Mölkerbastei. Gentle readers shared links and information in the comments section of the previous post.
the statue makes me wish I had wings! Looks like a beautiful day to fly outside.
ReplyDeleteThe winged Victoria is always such a welcome sight, literally uplifting. ;-)

DeleteThe angle of the light is so perfect for the architectural details isn't it...
ReplyDeleteAmazing how form follows function or is it the other way around...
Nothing beats early morning or late late afternoon light!
DeleteI love this series of beautiful Victoria taken from different perspectives. One feels as if one could fly with her in some of them.
