Hier hat man in früheren Zeiten sicherlich stilvoll seinen Kaffee und ein leckeres Stück Torte genießen können. Oder auch zwei 😉 .
Here, in earlier times, you could certainly enjoy your coffee and a delicious piece of cake in style. Or even two 😉 .
Street portrait of a fashionable young man in NYC
I promise that this is the last picture of a train for a while. But after the last two posts I wanted to show at least one picture which can symbolize the power of a steam engine. A so called Pacific 4-6-2 fast train engine class 01 first built in 1925 pulls out of the station of Saarburg. The electric wiring and the photographers along the line indicate that her time is long gone.
This picture reminds me of summer memories when I’d go swimming with friends on hot days. I love the water reflection and shade of blue in this image. This photo feels like summer to me. Enjoy!
I photographed with a Russian Helios 44-2 lens. The lens is reasonable sharp and most importantly produces a beautiful background blur. Enjoy this image which I photographed in downtown Merced.
Wernigerode, am Nordrand des Harzes gelegen, ist eine wunderschöne alte Stadt mit vielen Fachwerkhäusern und einem über der Stadt thronenden Schloß. Überraschenderweise findet man aber auch viele moderne Kunstwerke, die sich perfekt in ihre Umgebung integrieren. So wie gestern die “Turmschnecke” von Anke, oder hier der Brunnen auf dem Nicolaiplatz im Herzen von Wernigerode. Der von Prof. Bernd Göbel gestaltete Brunnen zeigt ein Stück des Lebensastes mit Szenen der Wernigeroder Geschichte und im Hintergrund den Heiligen Nikolaus. Auf seiner Schulter steht: Je mehr du abgibst, umso reicher wirst du.
Wernigerode, located on the northern edge of the Harz Mountains, is a beautiful old town with many half-timbered houses and a castle towering over the town. Surprisingly, however, you can also find many modern works of art that integrate perfectly into their surroundings. Like yesterday’s “Turmschnecke” by Anke, or here the fountain on Nicolaiplatz in the heart of Wernigerode. The fountain, designed by Prof. Bernd Göbel, shows a piece of the branch of life with scenes of the history of Wernigerode and in the background St. Nicholas. On his shoulder is written: The more you give, the richer you become.
Diese Bronzeskulptur des Bildhauers Gernot Rumpf steht in der Altstadt von Wernigerode. In der gesamten Innenstadt findet man zahlreiche weitere Plastiken verschiedener Künstler. Es lohnt sich, mit offenen Augen durch die Stadt zu laufen.
This bronze sculpture by sculptor Gernot Rumpf is located in the old town of Wernigerode. Throughout the city center you can find numerous other sculptures by various artists. It is worth walking through the city with open eyes.
