    1. Merci! :-)
      Indeed, that was an almost miraculous transformation, from winter into spring.

  4. I wish I could smell the lilacs as I remember them from my youth... Here in Australia they have lost most of that intense fragrance, they didn't seem to like the long journey South... the same with tulips and the European violets. We do have native violets though, with a slight perfume.. I just wish I could catch Spring in Vienna once more... Your photos are always lovely, Merisi, thank you.
    Warmest wishes, Walter.
