    Splendid shots, Paula. Condensed particularly caught my eye though – condensed spatially, vista-wise and the depth of colours. Also sempiternal is a very mystical sounding word. I must go and ponder on it 🙂

    These are wonderful. The first one is my favourite. So soothing, and the colours are perfect. The windsurfers add that little extra.

    I love your photos Paula. The cormorants or shags are lovely, the feel of the water gushing over me is wonderful in the last one. I love Burano too. Hopefully I’ll be back with my selections for my all time favourite photo challenge.

    Many years since I was on Burano. Still colourful, I see. 🙂 🙂 Goes well with the lively music. I cheated and visited Tish for a definition of my favourite of your photos. I think I’d like Slunj. Take care, darlin.

    Great words, great images! I love your centred view down a Burano street – gorgeous! And such beauty from Slunj.
    And sempiternal is fantastic – I had to check its meaning. Very interesting that it is so similar to eternal in both sound and meaning but the 2 words have different roots. Language is always fascinating
