MARCH RECAP – 2017

It’s time for my monthly recap. This is what March 2017 looked like:       

THURSDAY’S SPECIAL: TRACES OF THE PAST Y3-03

  This month it is time to tackle  Traces of the Past in colour again. My photo shows a panorama of old Mantua (Italy) with the skyline that seems to pertain to some other times. There is no question that the former Duchy of Mantua (Mantova in Italian) still bears many traces of its glorious past.  For this recurrent challenge you are free to…

BLACK & WHITE SUNDAY: COUNTRYSIDE

I live in the centre of the city and every trip to the countryside is a treat for me. I don’t do it often, but when I do I never miss the opportunity to photograph what looks like an ideal dwelling. This Sunday you are asked to post a photograph (or several) of a countryside which may, but does not have to, contain buildings…

FEBRUARY RECAP – 2017

It is the last day of February which means it is time for my monthly recap:    and a smaller Black & White gallery:  

FOLLOW MY SHADOW

THURSDAY’S SPECIAL: 2016 RETROSPECTIVE

  It’s the time of year when we usually take stock of our life, hoping to make it better in some way and looking forward to the forthcoming year expecting it to bring solutions to our troubles. That’s what I did. I started by taking stock of my images in 2016. You know what they say “an image is worth a thousand words”. If…

NEW HORIZON

    This is my offering for weekly photo challenge and Jo’s Monday Walk.  P.S. This is the last post this week. I can’t seem to find time to post and to view my favourite blogs, so I will take a blog break till next Thursday (22 December). See Scheduled challenges for updates.  

OCTOBER RECAP

Here is my gallery for October, somewhat smaller because I was here just half the month.
