Lovely light and color - wish I could see them in their larger glory!

Many thanks - they're just as, or even more, beautiful! I've always been drawn to the interiors of churches and cathedrals - it was either all my art history classes or the summer I spent wandering through so many in England many years ago, I think.

Thanks for the kind comments.

I'm always in awe of the craftsmanship that has gone into creating these places, particularly when you consider when and how they were built.

 

[BBW]

Yes, considering how and when they were built, makes me shudder sometimes. How many years and lives were used to build some of these cathedrals? I like the idea of using photos to expand upon the history of a place, while at the same time creating them as expressive form of documenting and distilling a place as seen today through the "eyes' of our cameras.

Beautiful lighting in all, Alf! I'd be thrilled to be walking there. I like the way you've embedded these so that when one clicks on them, there's a slide show in a nice big size. Lovely images. I think I'm hooked on that boy in black and white with the fountains.

Yes I have a lot of cat pics.

So here we are, taking two days off while the country enters the second week in lockdown.

after a long breakfast we get outside to take a walk in the fields, so we can get some light while slowing infection.

while it looks empty, it’s not - about 50000 live nearby

Spring is quite near. Hope it’s warmer sooner as it might help.

We should be out of town - first it was Jerusalem, then after canceling that it was a short tour in the north among family and friends; then a little while in the Etruscan heartland - and as you can see we are exploring our literal backyard instead.

and then it’s home, and cooking cooking cooking
And in a day or two, off to work we go
