10 am - Switzerland

Nyon - Vaud (Switzerland)

I love wisteria.
Máire knows that, so she won’t be surprised to see the subject I have chosen for my 10 am picture.

This is the season of wisteria in full blossom and there are so many of them, here in Nyon,
which I like visiting regularly, as one might visit good old friends, to see if they are well...

After the heavy rains of the last days, my wisteria friends have suffered a little
and their purple flowers are not that fluffy anymore.

Nevertheless they have the melancholy and powerful beauty of a mature woman a minute before the beginning of her slight decline.

I could not impose on you 12 photos of wisteria today, so I chose only one, among all the ones I have taken during my walk.

This one.

Rhapsody in purple. How beautiful this is, and how harmoniously all the elements blend together. I share your love of wisteria. Here in Ottawa there is one wisteria plant that grows in the Dominion Arboretum and every spring I visit it many times.

The wisteria colors are a perfect compliment to the window shutters ... or should that be stated the other way around?
