I like very much photos which have natural frames....made of stone or wood or plastic..or...I think it is a game of photographers....Great shot!

What a great idea to frame your own photo!

Sorry I haven't visited for ages but was busy with my english friend, but still I enjoyed going through your previous posts.

I like the way you framed the blue ocean viesta with this textured wall. Very nice, JM.

You're good at finding associations between the old and the (fairly) new. Views like this make a city come alive.

What a framing, indeed!!
And bluest scene ever.

We are going fast to a winter, many trees are already naked and warmth of nights is below 5 degrees Celsius, soon first frost is here.
But I can always enjoy sunny, warm pictures from you :)
Have a pleasant week !
