Lost in Translation

THURSDAY’S SPECIAL: PICK A WORD – FEBRUARY 2022

Welcome and thank you for the visit.

This is the February edition of my photo challenge Pick a Word in which you are supposed to interpret in image any or several or all of the five proposed words.

This month I am offering simple words, but hopefully not too simple to interpret in photos.

The first two are taking you to Dolomites, showing Case di Viso, a preserved village (uninhabitated) with the architecture dating to the early 19th ct and a narrow alpine road that can take you there, meandering amidst green summer meadows.

Closer to home and in winter time there is a photo of the idyllic Bled in Slovenia presented in a subdued, almost colourless winter scene.

Finally, the arranged logs and a forward facing heron were captured in my Zagreb.

Have fun and see you soon!

CONSERVED

    Dear Paula
    We love ‘systematised’ best.
    It’s a funny mixture of terms.
    Thanks for sharing

    Wonderful words and images as ever, Paula. My big favourite is the subdued view of Bled. Simply gorgeous.
    I’ve gone for 2 words in one image: straight and meandering: https://travelwithintent.com/2022/02/24/straight-and-meandering-2/

    Astonished at how good Bled looks in neutrals, Paula. And the Dolomites have always been the stuff of dreams for me.

    What a stand-up fellow. As usual, all the pics are great but I love the intensity of this guy’s look.
