This is the image for yesterday, Saturday, March 10. In the morning I had some business in Klagenfurt and I shot this image when coming home, about 3km before arrival.
It is not a sad image, not at all, it reminds me of precious fabric, of brocade, but may I offer a sad Song of the Day anyway? “Green Grass” by Tom Waits from his 2004 album “Real Gone”.

Thanks Ted for the "You see things ...". It is nice, it is flattering and it is blatantly wrong. Everybody who has not been there can easily get a sense of what I mean at Ted's blog. Let him ramble about thongs and cracked and peeling streets and you know it 🙂
Thank you anyway.
I would have probably written more about my association with precious fabric, and how at the age of 19 I was searching for a brown suit and a sky-blue shirt that would exactly match the sky and the autumn mountain that I drove by one morning. I had the suit custom-made, because that year brown was an impossible color to get by. One time I will wear something the colors of this image

I like this image. Lots of competition in the lines that lead you around this subtle composition. And the tilt, I think, really brings it all together and makes it work. Kinda gives it some more of that built in energy.
Thanks for sharing,

Of course it is not a sad image. As I have past commented... you have an ebullient spirit that burbles into your graphics even when you are feeling moody. Maybe it is "style" maybe it is an optimistic spirit - wuddever... this is just another example of an exuberant palette described in an inviting texture. The abstract is fanciful. You see things I wish I saw. Thanks Andreas...
