Happy Easter!

 Today my doggy and I went for a long stroll through Vienna's Green Prater. Although the weather was cold and rainy, we enjoyed the lonely walk along the old arms of the Danube. The fresh green leaves and white blossoms on the trees showed us that Spring was actually there.

 At home we relaxed and ate boiled Easter eggs and ham, and watched a nice movie on TV: Ratatouille, the story of the adventures of the little rat Rémy gifted with some highly developed senses of taste and smell.

 
Dear friends, I wish all of you a happy and peaceful Easter time!

Gladioli and a new camera



I have a new camera! I spend my evenings at home studying the instruction manual!
And from time to time I dare take a snapshot, try some retouching, and enjoy the result :-)
Oh, it's so much fun to have a new camera!

Flowers on my window




Now it's the most beautiful time of the year in Vienna:
The temperatures are summerly warm, but the nights and mornings are cool and refreshing;
The air is perfumed with the fragrance of flowering lime-trees, sweet acacia and jasmine.

On my windowsill, my orange tree and the little flowers I brought from Turkey, enjoy the hot midday sun. Not to forget my cactuses!


Have a pleasant Whitsunday everywhere!

On a rainy weekend like that...


On a rainy day like that
I try to remember the colour of the summer sky.
I review my summer photos,
and this is what I found:

Blue skies, white clouds, white statues,
bold birds,
gaudy flowers, sparkling fountains,
and good humoured people!








Have a nice sunny weekend ahead!

Today's Flowers - Perfect Rose Revisited


This is my last week's Perfect Rose.


And this is the same rose one week later.



The sun has deepened her colour!



The rose shows her changing beauty to a fresh bud.



I will return to see if she smells sweet!




Her name:
