Onwards through Northern Italy and Austria

Posted in Landscape, Nature, Travel at 12:30 pm by Warren Williams

Travelling northward from Venice the following morning, we quickly headed to the border of Italy and Austria. The high quality roads through the Alps were absolutely amazing, offering unparalleled views.

    Reminded me a bit of New Zealand

    Glacial Riverbeds – at first glance I thought it was New Zealand!

    The fly on the yellow daisy is an awesome photo. Though I really want it to be a bee instead… It’s just not right that it’s a fly.

    Thanks again Angus. Only had around 10 seconds whilst crossing the bridge to shoot through the window of the coach to get that shot. The second to fifth shots are all from the moving coach. An amazing drive though, which I’ll revisit one day in my own car.
