Metalwork in Bruges
Metalwork in Tallinn
Mirrored kaleidoscope onboard.
I am pretty certain that this is a white-tailed eagle that we saw at about 5 o'clock in the morning when we got up to enjoy the ship's prgoress at dawn through the archipeligoes approaching Stockholm. A rare treat.
Looking Down.........
So much variety and design potential in these manhole covers.
Looking through......

Wow brilliant photo's Julie. Love all the metal work. Thanks for sharing them sometimes it can be slow and frustrating loading them onto blogger.
Wonderful, wonderful photos just full of inspiring shapes and textures. Love the metalwork and those manhole covers. I'd have wanted to get down on my knees and take rubbings!
Oh I love this tour Julie, thanks so much for sharing it. The man hole covers are amazing. xox
Oh wow! I'm exhausted, all that inspiration, no wonder you took so many pics, they'll keep you busy for years. Love the manhole covers. And the lace wall paper is perfect for what I'm working on at the moment.
As you say, so much inspiration here! Looking forward to seeing what you do with some of these designs!
Excellent post Julie.....and so much inspiration for your artwork!
Who'd have thought manhole covers could be so beautiful :-)

Heather, you and me both! I was wishing I'd got some silk and crayons with me (I did have but I'd left them on the ship, silly girl).
Magnifico - my darling.
My brother and siter in law have just been on a Baltic cruise. I wonder if it was the same one? Listing the places they went made me want to do one too. You have certainly really seen everywhere with your wonderful artistic eye. These photographs are just the sorts of things I'd be looking at and I have really enjoyed them. What a magical Birthday treat.
Definitely on my wish list of places to visit. There is some beautiful art scattered around this place but my favourite has to be those moons and the drain cover with the line-drawing people. Fabulous.
More great photos Julie. I think you may have enough inspiration from this trip alone to last you a lifetime.
A wonderful collection of pictures with some beautiful patterns and colours. Very inspirational.
