New camera or a loaner? My sources tell me at least one photo is from a Sony DSC-RX10M2, not that there is anything wrong with that! I’ve just found that my hi-res photos are inhaling storage space and I’m reluctant to opt for the WordPress Business Plan as I’m not the dedicated blogger SOME people are. 😉 -wink
My photos are mixtures now of HX400 And RX10. I label them accordingly so I can tell the difference. The Rx is possibly sharper and best with landscapes, but the 400 is the go to camera for macros and zoom wildlife. The price differential is significant between the two, and if I have to pick one for the day, it is the 400 which is much less expensive.
Well, that is just the most picturesque place I’ve seen…… maybe ever! I’m sure if I did see something more picturesque, it was on this blog. You travels and photographs are spectacular! Thank you, Cindy! xo
You are the bestest blogging buddy Resa. Do you know Charlotte Hoather? I suggested she commission you to design her a dress for her opera performances. She wants it to resemble the mandarin ducks. I think you would make something phenomenal and I hope she contacts you! Of course neither of you may have the time……but someday, maybe!
I don’t know her personally, but she follows Art Gowns & I follow her. I would love to do her a gown. I told her to contact me if she was coming to Toronto! xx
Cindy…how stunningly beautiful your photography is and Heidelberg is such an interesting city and the river, looks so pristine. How lovely. Thank you so much for sharing. K D 🙂
Your photography has showcased the beauty of this city. I remember going there with a group of printers to the Heidelberg Press factory in the 1980’s. And later with Bill. Thanks for sharing.
Une belle amitié
C’est deux mains sur un clavier
Le passage sur un profil
Une image que l’on dépose
Sur une personne que l’on apprécie
De quelqu’un gentil et sage
On dépose des petits mots bien placés
Dans ce joli petit monde
Moi je suis toujours là pour faire sourire
Et cela me fait toujours plaisir
Au fond de mon coeur
Je t’offre ce bonheur
Je te dis bonne nuit ou bonjour
Wonderful theme here Cindy– it seems most historic cities were built on water (makes sense)– Love the reflected colors of the trees in the water… I’ll bet you’re having fun reviewing the whole trip through your pictures Cindy! Love seeing them… xox
Ah, Heldelberg ! Such a beautiful place and wonderful pics, Cuz. Did you, by chance, have a tankard of ale with the Student Prince while you were there ? Ha ! 🙂
We used Viking, and did one river cruise and one Viking ocean cruise. Check out the competition because there was room for improvement. Still the cruise that goes from Copenhagen to Budapest was absolutely wonderful in November. The Bavarian towns were ethereal and there were no tourists.
Awesome visuals Cindy – my cousin recently shifted to Heidelberg, perhaps I will drop in 😉 And see the DDs too 😀
