Wouldn't have thought you still have roses there, given the weather. That is a very interesting shot.

@mbrutus glad to see you back! I had started to worry. Yes we have roses because the very cold weather does not hit Verona. The snowy landscapes in my previous pictures were in the mountains, 300 km from here and 1200 meters higher

Lovely photo.

Wonderfully contrasted framing

Glad to be back. Glad to hear that you still have your roses. I am now two weeks behind in pruning back my roses and my twin is back visiting, so I will be a few more days from trying to catch up with where I should be.

@jyokota @redandwhite thank you. It was in fact the contrast between the delicate flower and the gray metal that made me take the picture. And is it not in fact the same contrast that there is between war and peace?

@caterina -- indeed. BTW, I am in Bologna every year in March! It would be fun to meetup!

[Caterina]

Yes let’s do it! Absolutely! What do you do in Bologna? And where do you live the rest of the year? We could meet in Verona, Bologna, Ferrara or any other place that you choose. Keep in touch!

I participate in the Children’s Book Fiera every year. This year it’s the last week in March. I will be coming from Poland where I am a visiting professor. I live in Chicago most of the time but I’m originally from Japan.
