In the early morning,
whith the city streets slowly coming to life
and the sun peaking barely over the roofs,
the contrasts between shadow and light
are very stark at times.
I took these images while
walking my dog Max around the
neighborhood in the early morning sun.

Playing "Shadow and Light"
:-)
Beautiful Merisi.
ReplyDeleteI just had my morning walk in the blue garden:

I was thnking of you when I posted the blog entry and search for an autumn poem without finding one I wanted to use :-)
PULEEEZE do a post on MAX!
ReplyDeleteIs he(?) a longhaired Dachshund?
They are supposed to be the BEST doggies...
I want to meet Max....
Yeah, Max looks cool, so I agree that you must do a post on him! He could show us Vienna's best fire hydrants and postal carriers.
ReplyDeleteYes, more on Max, please. I'll definitely be getting a dog and I'd like to know more about this breed. I absolutely love the picture you made of him some time ago; the one in which he is asleep curled up on someone's lap. I love dogs. I used to have a Yorkie, but he was a handful and I'd like my next one to have a calmer nature.
ReplyDeleteThe sunflowers are in bloom here, too. I don't know why, but I was surprised to find out you have them there.
These are lovely photos. There is nothing like morning light (and a beloved dog) for photos.
ReplyDeleteOooh, I thought Max was going to turn out to be your secret lover!
ReplyDeleteThe blushing white rose.
ReplyDeleteYou've captured everything I've ever loved, about the rose.
It is bursting.

BRITT-ARNHILD:
ReplyDeleteI shall leaf through my poem books!
PARIS BREAKFASTS:
I have been promising Max a special treat if he would put a nice post together. He's pondering this thought under the dining room table.
He is a longhaired Dachshund and has a lovely personality. Great sense of humor, very sweet, loves to walk and explore. My kind of dog. ;-)
BRUCE:
I will set him to work, definitely. I need to wait for the right moment, though. He can't be rushed. :-)
INCURABLE INSOMNIAC:
ReplyDeleteI think you might have seen Mira, my mom's longhaired, red Dachshund. She's very sweet also, but her personality is very different from Max. Max pretends to be a Sir, a gentleman dog, while Lady Mira is a little she-devil, all over the place.
The sunflowers in the fields are all dried up now, their dark brown heads ready to give up the seeds.
BECCA:
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree, morning light is magic. And my Max, too. :-)
MAALIE:
Max definitely is a good alibi for a long walk! :-)
CIPRIANO:
Thank you,
I am glad you enjoy my rose. :-)
Love your photos ... what a great way to start the day.
