I like the reflections in the top photo, but I especially like the quaint houses framed by the arch in the middle one. A difficult shot to get the exposure right for, but you've got it just right.
Well, that was actually a cup of tea :) but the mugs can be found here or here. Or just Google on Arabia and Moomin.
I actually bought mine a few years ago in Copenhagen, which was where I first saw them, but they seem to be available online now. In addition to the Moominmamma in the icon I have Moomintroll on ice, but I fancy acquiring a few more and getting the matching bowls too.
It's funny what catches your eye sometimes. The second photo shows a bit of moss/mold growing at the base of the archway. Here in the desert, you simply never see that sort of thing.
Another fan of views through archways here; I assume it's an effect of the light that makes picture two look like a glimpse of another world? I mean, it isn't really a gateway to another world, is it?
