Framed art shown in a display room.

Early morning on lake Lugano, Switzerland is the view I enjoyed from my hotel room while visiting the area.

Low clouds hang over the mountains that surround lake Lugano in Switzerland. The sky, a brilliant blue, is filled with white windswept clouds. The water ripples in the light breeze, reflecting the surrounding scene. — Early morning on lake Lugano, Switzerland is the view I enjoyed from my hotel room while visiting the area.
