City Views #346: City Walk 41


I’ve done this shot before, but here’s one with the new camera – the lower shopping center entrance at the right and on the left you can see the tunnel below the Kurt-Schumacher-Platz (alias Pflasterstrand) pedestrian zone. I shot this on December 9th, that’s why there are Christmas trees over the mall entrance – and there’s also an alternative colour version again.

New Kitty on the Block


A cat I had never seen before was walking around on the roofs of the backyard
garage last week – quite confidently and unafraid, as if it was making the rounds!

Moon from January 28th, but I caught another one today! :-)
This one’s a bit less processed for a more natural look.
And go map craters on CosmoQuest.org, everyone! :-)

Return of the Age of Snow VIII


The fir tree in front of our house was bending under the weight of the snow!

And some additional purple Malvae blossoms because there were so many :-).

Balcony Flowers #676


Tiny little yellow and white flowers growing in one of the balcony flowerpots. Probably some kind of self-imported weed, but they were so pretty that we just let them grow! :-)

City Views #345: City Walk 40


Now we’re coming back from Mülheim’s Leineweberstrasse to the southwest end of the shopping center with one of the highrise buildings looming above it. The mall entrance is at the lower left and on the right side you can see the pedestrian bridge leading right into the higher entrance. For this photo, I processed an alternative colour version again.

Kitchen Flower #45


Apart from the Amaryllis in the kitchen, there was a little Hyacinth which we rescued from the balcony where it wanted to come out much too early – it would have frozen!

Moonstack #61


Another stacked Moon shot, this time from the 27th because the weather didn’t cooperate on the two days before that. I think I’m getting better at this – this is not even much post-processed.
