Misty Morning, don't see no Sun
Vienna in Winter


Gaily coloured Flowers
brighten a grey dull morning
Landstrasse

Bridge over the River Wien
Green railing and a rusty colored tree
dull lights in the misty landscape

Dr. Karl-Lueger-Platz
The verdigris patina of the statue
against the muted brown of the plane tree,
are not exactly mirthful either

Christmas Reds and Greens
Mulled wine hut, closed,
somber is what comes to mind
Wollzeile

The Promised Land
Warms reds welcome
the visitor, hot coffee
warms body and soul

Café Diglas

  7. Merisi, as I moved along the avenue of soft toned misty hues and quiet places, a thought insinuated itself, little by little.

    And then I realized that you kindly had already arranged to meet your visitors in a warm and cozy cafe. The perfect red accent!

    Happy New Year. xo
