What fine, ornate towers. What passes for modern architecture just doesn't equal these old buildings in beauty.

Very interesting ornate towers all of them have interest.

De belles lignes contre un ciel bien pur avec tant d'histoire derrière!

This image is really beautiful. Love the towers and their colors.

I am crazy about towers in general, clock one's in particular, these together are like poetry.
I have an impressionistic pastel of Hunyadi's 'kula' ... I'll send you a photo of it to you next week.

So different from each other but both fantastic!

Happy Friday and happy weekend!

Bibi, whether you realize it or not, your comment at New York Portraits is a nice take-off of aissez-les manger le gâteau! ;-)

Wha an amazingly unusual tower. Never seen anything like this before.

What a great shot .. the warmth of those bricks and the brass brighten the otherwise dreary skies ...

James said...

Great shot! I like the way they seem to reach for the sky.

 This is a post that would be better in color, but maybe not. These colors were soooo pale.
