  1. More beautiful every day! Thanks for visiting me on a not so pleasant blog-topic-day. When I come here, the winds of anger have subsided and I can sit back and enjoy civilized discorse.

    p.s. you have just the right blend of poetry in verse and in images.

  6. That shot of the pomagranate is so crisp...and the composition is amazing! I think it needs to be hung in a gallery! I love it! BTW, fall is my favorite season! ~Janine XO

    Very Maroc.

  8. Hello Merisi, and many thanks for your message.

    Well, I do know that you can show us the beauty to be found throughout Vienna, and make us viewers long to follow your footsteps to each lovely square, garden, and ... Cafe.

    Now, as autumn begins, you are making me long to travel to Italia.

    Bravo!

    The change in the light is remarkable, the poetry of your eye is consistent.

    Thanks! :-)

    @ lakeviewer:
    Reality is not always what we dream of,
    but we can hope, can we? ;-)

    @ Cheffie-Mom:
    You are welcome! :-)

    @ Fat, frumpy and fifty:
    It looked like a field of gold!

    @ Simona:
    Grazie!
    To which part of Italy are you going to be travelling?

  14. @ Vicki Lane:
    I took these images when our side of the world fell into autumn!

    @ Sniffles and Smiles:
    I love autumn, especially these days when the sun's still strong.

    @ ewix:
    Those pomegranates at the top of the tree could well have had a view of Marokko beyond the sea!

    @ Frances:
    Thank you, Frances!
    I am trying to learn how to capture the light before it changes again. ;-)

  15. @ Rob-bear:
    Welcome! :-)

    Right now we are lucky,
    enjoying a truly beautiful and warm Indian Summer.

    @ Feronia:
    I would suggest you visit Italy first, making your way along the Veneto region's seashore, stay overnight in old country homes and then make your way to the north, towards Vienna. ;-)

    @ H.Peter:
    Thank you! :-)

    Travelling along the Venetian Lagoon and the Veneto region's small seaside towns this time of the year is a real feast for the eye and the soul - I travelled by car, though. I have taken the train down from Vienna to Venice at other times, it is a beautiful journey, indeed.
