The city as well as nature have interesting things to offer. We are happy as long as we do not have downtrodden preplanned trips, tours or cruises. This little shop is on Gia Via Del Biscione in Lucca (Tuscany), Italy. The outside of this tile maker’s shop belies the inside. Beautiful handmade tile and ceramic (dishes) work for 20+ years. This must be next door to Paradise:) Sorry couldn’t get the door to stand out more.

THE GOOD
Beautiful in simplicity
whispering with the breeze
of the wind
to go higher
always higher
my eyes sizing up
plants gripping tightly
to this massive chiseled wall
(W- entrance)
THE FUN
looking for shade
jotting down the details
of sun and shade and texture
only to discover the windows’
tale-telling of sun’s delights
These windows welcoming
reflections aka Views of the forest
Always unexpected
moving in the shadows of the trees
to go back after lunch
finding prickly
dried out
grasses and branches
small streams conquering
big rocks
(WaterWorld)
THE FUN: Fri Hunt
Start with W: Wooden Fence
Weeks Fave: Lucca, Italy
rough: water -photo above
protective boundaries
for rough water
and undercurrents
(Good Fences)
and climb
layer
on layer
to catch the breath of heaven

All so lovely! I can never get a good picture of a deer — they always melt into the background. Maybe if I used an actual camera instead of a cheap phone, I’d have a chance. heh. Beautiful pictures, every one!

where I live, you see deer very often in your own yard -so, many opportunities to take pics, as they stand still -we do, but can’t feed them, otherwise they become dependent on people for food.

Hello Jesh, Your summer header is amazing. So beautiful and an unusual shot. Good eye for photos for sure
I always enjoy all of your photos so much. The mountain cliff of stone with the vegitation is a great shot as well. The tree line looks like you are at the top.
Happy Blue Monday. We just arrived home from vacation yesterday. Late catching up. Thank you for joining my blog party.
