Gallery: Birdspotting 2015


The Birdspotting Gallery of 2015 continues the complete gallery posts and this one contains some of my favourite photos from last year, including a few birds I’ve never photographed before among all the regular feathered visitors. There are also a few photos in there I never posted before and only uploaded to the gallery, so this post actually contains some new photos! Click on the preview photo above or on the link below to go to the gallery itself – or you can visit my Google+ Profile or the Animal Gallery Collection to find the G+ version, although the locally hosted versions have a slightly better quality.

City Views #518: Up the South Hill 4


The crossing of Mülheim’s Kämpchen- and Oberstrasse has a stretch of older houses on this side which probably date back to the early 1900s. There used to be a bakery in the corner shop until the late 1990s, but since then it has been mostly empty. The house has been nicely repainted recently, though and looks quite good – the colour version of this photo shows this much better than the black and white!

Crow Invasion 1


This is only a somewhat abstract blurry shot of two of the many crows that have been coming to our neighbourhood’s trees in the last couple of evenings, making a huge racket for several hours. We’ve never had something like this here before and it’s quite amazing to see and hear!

Gallery – Winter Flowers 2015


The Winter Flowers Gallery of 2015 has the last few flower photos from November and December with all the flowers from everywhere except our balconies. This is the last flower album of 2015, but you can also look at the previous years in the Balcony and Flowers categories in the gallery!  Click on the preview photo above or on the link below to go to the gallery itself, but as usual you can also find a G+ version over on my Google+ Profile or the Flower Gallery Collection.

A wide-angle shot up (or down, depending on the perspective) Mülheim’s Kämpchenstrasse – you might recognise some of the houses from previous pictures, especially the one on the left!

Moon #122


No Moon shots due to clouds today or on the 20th, but yesterday I had a chance before the nasty weather came – so here’s an almost full Moon from last evening!

Cactus Flower 2016 #11


Since the top blossom started to wilt today, I went for a low angle to hide it behind the second one :-).

Gallery – Autumn Flowers 2015


The Autumn Flowers Gallery of 2015 is the sequel of the Summer Flowers from September and October with all the flowers from everywhere except our balconies. Click on the preview photo above or on the link below to go to the gallery itself or you can go over to my Google+ Profile or the Nature Gallery Collection to find the G+ version, but the website gallery is basically the master version.
