Flowers everywhere!

Un bel terrazzo fiorito

The above photo is of a typical Austrian/ Bavarian balcony. Have you ever seen anything more beautiful?? when I think about the miserable state of the balconies in my building… gray/black :(

But here in Austria the norm is to have flowers everywhere! and I mean everywhere, in the garden, on the balcony, and also in the house in what they call a “WinterGarten” which is a winter garden.

Strolling through any of these towns is like finding yourself immersed in a fairytale. Little wooden houses, with abundance of flowers and at your back are the stupendous mountaintops that are still covered in snow. Isn’t it like being in the Heidi cartoon, there’s little missing!

sunset over my hometown

I found those pictures in my archive, I almost forgot that I had them. I took them one summer day some years ago, while walking through a public park called “Parco Talon”, on the hills nearby my hometown, Bologna. It was late afternoon and the sun was going down quickly on the horizon. The pictures had some funny effects, I find them cool even if maybe you can think they’re crap :)

I took them in a hurry (better not stay in such places when is dark) but still managed to capture the magic moment, the sunset, one of my favourite natural events.
