GMTA! Sam Javanrouh popped this one onto his Daily Dose photoblog yesterday. Somehow seeing the scene under different skies really kicked me in the head -- the insignificance of even the grandest buildings in the valley when contrasted with that looming mountain becomes magical! Thanks for waking me up!
"The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place; from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider’s web." Pablo Picasso
"...here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)"
Oh yes a very nice view from the old castle of Salzburg just at the border with Bavaria Germany. (The mountain top right in the haze belongs to Germany) I had dinner once here. Have you seen the oposite outlook from this castle ? it overlooks the small Mozart city. (if not see my gallery, there are 2 images) Thanks for this lovely view !
