Burano Vignette 18.6.15

One of the great joys of blogging with WordPress is the pleasure discovering new blogs to be inspired by. Today was one of those days when I was introduced to Small Town Girl Midnight Trains. Her misty images of Burano for this week’s Weekly Photo Challenge: Off-Season are simply magical and made me want to rush to the studio and try and capture those colorful houses and deserted walkways lining the canal on that misty morning. How successful I’ve been is another matter but it led to a happy hour or two this afternoon immersed in another world.
The blog is a jewel, with a wonderful heading text: travel inspiration for small budgets and big dreams. If the blog is new to you too drop by you won’t be disappointed, and don’t forget to read her Travel Manifesto in which she “wishes to inspire by being ordinary,” but in which in fact she inspires by being extraordinary.

Great pick! Her blog is great, and so she is 🙂

This is so beautifully done Andrew. I think you’ve captured the essence of the scene AND added an extra dash of spirit to it somehow, if that makes sense. Thank you for this and for your kind words. All the best to you!
