Windows of Europe Summer 2013

On the way home from a late summer sojourn in Europe…

I have little patience or interest in historical monuments or museums in this part of the world, but do admit to a long standing love affair with their windows.  I guess the relatively short growing season induces an appreciation for window boxes and floral displays we don't often see in America.  They really do have a gift for dressing doors, lamp posts and old windows.  
Here are a few…


Old Heidelberg
Cologne, Germany

Doing a light right in Cologne.
They dig pastels in Cologne too!
Heidelberg upstairs windows that make you want to move there.

Colmar, France upstairs bedroom with a view.
A little color on a drab building in Amsterdam

Hard to get a piano in this Amsterdam home.

Note the, accidentally lucky, reflection from this window in Haarlem, Netherlands.
Love for sale--hey it's legal--right around the corner from the church in Haarlem, Netherlands.


Leave it to the French!  Colmar, France.
