Today we continue on the day where we stopped in my previous Lens-Artists PC post looking up, but only with the first photo below. The others are from the remaining days of our recent long weekend with our special visitors. As you will see, they were just as blue.
In each photo there is a window or more of them, most with a certain something, since Leya added a little + to her challenge post title. So little that I saw it only after I made my selection. For these reasons some windows just are.
+ the arch and the lamp. (Orvieto)
+ blue sky and laundry. (Pitigliano)
+ a balcony. (Pitigliano)
+ a prisoner plant. (Pitigliano)
+ windows within windows. (Massa Marittima)
+ curtains, a vase and an incline. (Massa Marittima)
+ a lion, clock, pines and reflector. (Massa Marittima)
+ a lovely turtle bedspread. (Massa Marittima)
+ an unaware model and a chair. Thank you! (San Galgano Abbey)
+ holes for the ceiling and windows. (San Galgano Abbey)
+ the view of La Rotonda where the sword is buried in stone. (Until it’s due for maintenance.) (San Galgano Abbey)
+ bees! (La Rotonda, San Galgano Abbey)
+ a bonsai. (I’ve posted this window before but this is the latest addition. Overdoing it or just perfect? Porto Ercole.)
+ Norm of all people. (Glass is only in the bottom half, above is open. Porto Ercole)
+ happy flowers and a pigeon. (Capalbio)
+ doors and bestia in a Capalbio square.
+ lightbulbs, blowing in the wind. (Capalbio)
+ the sky. (Capalbio)
+ a certain… gesture. Is this what they mean by Capalbio inhabitants being the radical chic?
+ blue windows and your photographer. (San Martino sul Fiora)
You never disappoint me, Manja…marvellous collection – and you noticed the +! Bees, Bonsai and a prisoner plant – what more can I ask for? Love them all.
Oh, Sue, thank you! I have but didn’t know you were there too. I go to Pitigliano with most of my visitors after I found it on the list of Tuscan attractions soon after moving less than an hour away five years ago, and this was my second time to San Galgano which I discovered by chance by following the signs from Monticiano years ago. I’m very glad you were there as well, so you know just how glorious both places are.
Thank you, Tina. I’m afraid (but not really) that in four years of blogging I’ve come to realise that 20 is my natural number of photos per post. 😀 I have so many photos that I must have 20 of everything, even if I don’t like it as much.
I’m another fan of the prisoner plant … but also the plain lightbulbs hanging down. I imagine at night it creates a pretty ambiance. It’s such a simple idea and even in the daylight I like the look of it.
… and also the window reflections in the windows. You have a good eye for details.
Thank you, Joanne, for praising my eye. 🙂 Those lightbulbs were dancing very much and it wasn’t even very strong wind. I can’t see them survive any kind of storm.
Poor prisoner plant! Love the flowing curtains a couple of pics down from the prisoner, and also the bonsai picture! The green leaves look active, like they are heaving towards the little bonsai in the middle!
It appears as if you have a window fetish and there is nothing wrong with that! Nice captures. My favourite is the bees that is one securely guarded window
Hihih, Abrie, if you call this a fetish, what would you say about my door habit? 😉 Every Thursday, right here. And there are more of us. You’re right about the bee door, though. Thank you!

I love the windows and the window openings. I like the one with the balcony, but I’m not sure I’d trust that balcony to support me.
