Wow, every one of them are stunning in the mono photos. Awesome shots!

What a lovely park to visit with so many gardens and sculptures. Happy Holidays.

It looks like your babies had a fun time while you were out, lol. Merry Christmas to you!

Merry Christmas to you and your hubby, dear Silvia. Italy is my favorite destination!

Your macro photos of the dew are beautiful and full of life. You certainly captured the beauty of the early morning dew. Happy Holidays to you, Maria.
