Looks weather not so good even in sunny Italy, nice landscapes!

Nice ones Orio and as usual the Distagon is superlative. Your scenery looks more like mine than I would have expected - an unusually bad winter like the rest of Europe?

Yes, lots of snow.
This January has been the January with most rain/snowfall since 1800 - no, I don't mean the century... I mean the YEAR 1800. That means it's been the January with most atmospheric fall since 209 years !!

Weather seems very crazy, here we have 20cm snow and +6 C within a small country and we don't have high mountains!

Nice, my fav is #3.

It seems that weather is unlike the past everywhere. It was -8 F. here this morning. And the weatherman is forecasting +50's F over the weekend.

Back to the picture, I cannot imagine living there without a 4x4 truck, especially in the winter.

You don't see them around it's a long time, Patrick, except for one or two a year, occasionally. The few originals still working are now highly valued and became pieces for collectioners.

I have a fond remembrance of 500 because it was my mother's first car. I was a very little kid then, but I remember it very well.

I can attest to the "painterly" look to these images. In fact, I didn't even look at who had posted these until after looking at the images. Laughing

And of COURSE - it's Orio!

Fantastic compositions, I love the winding road...
