I’m not sure where I had actually taken this photo in Cologne, other than it was a quiet square somewhere between the Cathedral and the Rhine embankment.

Something pink blossoming behind the shopping mall. I have to admit that this is not my usual quality and only a sort of record shot, because I took this with my smartphone! I was too lazy to dig out the camera from my backpack, but the photo still looks halfway presentable and I’ll take another one with the real thing next time I come by there.

Cologne’s Roncalliplatz, directly south of the Cathedral, which si on the left in this photo. The building directly ahead is the very recommendable Roman-Germanic Museum, which I unfortunately had no time to visit when I was there.
