Indeed. They are from a few days ago, but it is amazing what is still flowering.
Thanks. π
Yes, it must be great to keep revisiting - there is always something new to discover.

π Stowford church, Devon
Encaustic tiles probably from the 1874 restoration of the church by George Gilbert Scott.
Oh how wonderful - it must be great to visit so regularly. We would certainly recommend Kirche am Steinhof.

π Petit Palais, Paris
Staircase & balustrade in Art Nouveau style, designed by Charles Girault. Set off by beautiful mosaic flooring.
The Exposition Universelle of 1900.
Yes, it is great to see Otto Wagnerβs work in Vienna. We also enjoyed a visit (nearby) to his Kirche am Steinhof. Thanks for such beautiful photos.
Wonderful - your grandparents lived in such a beautiful area. That must have been such a joy to visit them.
Absolutely. In East Anglia we particularly like how the flint is knapped.
π St Georgeβs Church, Goodrington, Paignton, Devon
Beautiful stained glass by Charles Norris of Buckfast Abbey. c1951?
(Attributed to Charles Norris in the profile of the Goodrington Mission Community by Oscar Carpenter)
Agreed. A beautiful flower.

I hope your friend appreciated it. π€ We certainly would have done. π There is much to see in Vienna. π
Agreed. The skill of workers & the dedication of the community over many centuries, who both preserved & enhanced it.
Great - lucky you. It is a wonderful building.
Agreed, ruined buildings, such as this, have a real beauty all of their own.
Oh dear! It does make you wonder. π€π€·ββοΈ
