Tu me merveilles chaque fois…beautiful and so profound…shadows have been prominent with me these days, so your haiga truly spoke to me. x

What a gorgeous, mysterious photo, Georgia — and I think that lamp is familiar! Different angle, different lighting – way different mood!!

Yes. Maneuvering those obstacles can be a bear. 😛

  LOL … totally different town too .. but not far from here .. that’s the craziness at times of these old medieval villages … after a while they all look pretty much alike .. and I’m not kidding …

    Oh well! ….. it reminded me of a staircase photo at WDBWP. And I think it was a shadorma prompt? Or perhaps it was early days of MLMM? Not sure which. But yeah …. I guess they would look similar. 😛
    
    Oopsies!

      You’re right … that was Rovereto, what a memory you’ve got! I like how you picked out that lamp … I was wondering if anyone would .. you know how I like lamps and lamp posts … and it seemed like a good hint? metaphor? whatever.

        Well, it was a great photo — so moody – intense colors, too. (As is this one.) But, sure — looking for the light — I caught the metaphor. 🙂

        cool! There was of course the obvious contrast between shade and light … but i wondered if “the light” would be seen 😉 A huge bear hug for you!
