Gatherings

Family-gathering near Bolzano.
In the place ("Noafer") of this gathering I found the photograph in the picture below which presents the Noafer-family in older times. As you can see the photograph was taken by Waldmueller, a renowned photo studio in Bolzano working still in the 1970ties but now closed.
