What a Treat!

Colchicum autumnale, commonly known as autumn crocus, meadow saffron or naked lady (in German - Herbstzeitlose)  is a flower that resembles the true crocuses, but blooms in autumn. The name "naked lady" comes from the fact that the flowers emerge from the ground long after the leaves have died back.

Lammerklamm, Austria













The water in the Lammer was crystal clear

On the short walk, the trail led to a viewing platform
deep in the rocks.
Unlike other gorges, the Lammerklamm main trail is wider

Yes, I crossed the bridge

The other end of the gorge

Latest Hardanger Piece

It's completed.  I call it, in perhaps an arrogant manner,
The Masterpiece.




Shown on the table because I always show my pieces on the table

Go ahead....zoom in on this one.  It really is the back!

Yes, I have to say, the back is pretty good.

And now...I put my Hardanger away and start on a new Blackwork piece!
Stay tuned...I think you are going to like it.  Of course,
Blackwork takes alot longer than Hardanger so I'll
post progress pictures as it takes shape.
