Dear Frank, of My most breathtaking vista, I have no photographs. Machu Pichu was a childhood dream, and I went to Peru in the 1980’s to see it. No camera. When we finally reached the top of the mountain, the Urubamba river down below and the surrounding rainforest oozing thin dew drops along the mountain […]Read Post ›
This photo challenge is alternately hosted each Friday by the bloggers: Something to Ponder About and The Snow Melts Somewhere Amanda’s prompt for this Friday is: Alleys I have chosen some colourful favorites from Poland, Spain and Morocko.

I also got reminded of my love for two English painters, namely John Constable and William Turner. Constable a naturalistic painter and Turner a Romantic – they […]Read Post ›

This summer we are going back again, to the western part of Iceland, and to revisit Vestmannaeyar. Seljalandsfoss 2006 – in the header, 2016 and winter. Gullfoss winter 2016 […]Read Post ›
Tuesday Photo Challenge – Breeze Breeze – well, there has to be one to get flags flying… to get your balloons up in the air… and to get your washed clothes dry… Surely to set sails and go to sea as well. Thank you for the breeze, Frank!
