When I was in Assisi, Italy I found many examples of scenes that were framed by arches or windows. Here are some of the places I admired the most.
And now here are my recommendations for two wonderful travel blogs: A Lifetime’s Exploration and traveldestinationbucketlist. I’m sure you will enjoy them. Until next month!
Stunning shots. A perfect series for framed. I would like to travel there.
Thanks Ruth! It’s a beautiful city and I think you’d really enjoy it :)
It’s so satisfying when you get a shot like this, and your selection is lovely!
I was happy that I had this many pictures for the challenge – thank you Lorna!
Gorgeous!
It really is a beautiful city!
Beautiful mix of scenes
It was wonderful to find so many places for taking photos…
Gorgeous framed views Meg!
Thanks Madhu -I thought Assisi was beautiful!
So very beautiful, Meg! Esp. the first one!
Thank you Amy- that was a scene I really admired!
You’ve framed Assisi beautifully, Meg!
Thanks Elisa! It’s a lovely city and I had fun taking these pictures :)
Natural framing makes such beautiful photos!
That’s a great point – it helps to create scenes for pictures!
These are wonderfully framed shots.
Thank you Patti, I really appreciate it!
Excellent framed shots.
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
I’m glad you liked them Francine – thanks!
What a fantastic selection of framed shots, for this month’s CBBH challenge, Meg. My favourite is the first one. I loved our visit to Assisi many years ago, before the beautiful church murals were damaged in the devastating earthquake.
Thanks for including links to two blogs you enjoy :)
Thank you so much Marianne – this is such a fun challenge and I really enjoyed choosing these pictures! Assisi is so beautiful…they are making progress restoring the murals that were damaged, too :)
I love Marianne’s challenges! Off to visit your recommends before it’s bath time, Meg.
They are fantastic photo challenges! I think you’ll enjoy the blogs too – it’s great to discover new ones… :)
Magnifico! I’m sure you have a wonderful collection of photos from Assisi. I’m looking forward to seeing more!
Thanks Patricia! Assisi was so photogenic – I did get lots of pictures from there that I’ll be sharing… :)
What an beautiful scene.
Assisi is really a lovely place!
Wonderful set of photos; all of them are gorgeous. My favorites are the first and third ones.
Thank you! Assisi has lots of fantastic places to photograph… :)
The last one is a real beauty! I love the view! :-)
Thanks Debra – it was such a delight to see the surrounding countryside!
Lovely photos Meg. I love the old stone buildings.
Thank you – those buildings were truly charming and picturesque!
you were in the right town for arches, all so picturesque and sunny … great photos meg!
I found so many arches (and arched windows) there and the weather was perfect – thank you!
i felt the wamrth of the sunshine and the brilliant colors of the buildings, the sky, the flowers and the lush green grass.What uplifting pics to see on this blah, gray day!!
The pictures were taken on a lovely day in May. I can’t wait for spring!
I just love that first view through the archway. It just looks so hopeful somehow!
That’s a great description of the scene, and I agree with you!

Magnifico!
Thank you very much Sarah!
I’m planning a trip to Italy and Assisi is one of the places I’d love to visit. Too many places, too little time.
Anyway, it’s great to see some photos of stunning Assisi :)
I hope you have the chance to visit Assisi! And have fun planning – it’s so nice to daydream about your trip… :)
Lovely frames, Meg! You have a great eye!
Thanks! Assisi is really beautiful and everywhere I looked there were “frames” for pictures… :)
Great pictures of beautiful Assisi! I took almost the exact same picture as your last one! I will not give away the location. Haha!
Question – what is the CBBH Photo Challenge? Is it the same as the Weekly Photo Challenge? I would like to participate in the CBBH challenge. Thanks!
Isn’t Assisi a wonderful place? It was so much fun picking these pictures out! Here’s the link for the CBBH challenge: http://eastofmalaga.net/2013/03/01/cbbh-photo-challenge-framed/ There is one every month and you can join in anytime… :)
Thanks! I will be sure to join!
You’re welcome :)
Nicely framed Meg, can picture myself standing underneath that first archway.
Thanks! I think it looks particularly welcoming – it would be so nice to be there!
These are all beautiful photos, Meg.
