Roses, because this is the 1000th posting on the blog :-).

This looks like it’s photoshopped, but it’s actually a view of the Petrikirche without its tower from March 1956. The buildings of the Mausefalle I showed on the earlier pictures can be seen on the left, on the right is the Tersteegenhaus, which has become a small local museum today. The other buildings on the far left and right do not exist anymore today, but I will try to get a photo from the same perspective soon.

A note on the watermarks: I don’t intend to watermark all my photos, only these historic images, since they are somewhat rare and I put a lot of work into the scanning and restoration. I would not like to see them reposted or reproduced anywhere without my knowledge – this has happened before on Facebook and I would at least like to know where the photos are floating around.

Dirty mushroom on a lawn – there’s only a small stretch where those are growing in the backyard.

Spikes in the middle of the eggplant leaves… never saw that before!

Something yellow… again, I have no idea what this is except it looks pretty :-).

One last current photo of the Petrikirche – this one and the five previous photos were unposted images from 2009 and are actually HDRs converted to black-and-white – the colour versions are going to be part of a seperate gallery. But tomorrow I’ll post something from the old archives – I remembered that I had restored a couple of amazing photos from the 1950 a few years ago.

Just a wide-angle 2×2 panorama of a tree in the supermarket parking lot near here.

Yesterday’s streaming sunlight from behind the clouds.

This is not, I repeat, NOT the attack of the infamous killer tomatoes! :-)

Something pink with bells on :-).
