Hummingbird

There are many hummingbirds that fly around my house and every so often, I am able to capture a really interesting image of these beautiful birds. I love how the sun shining on the hummingbird’s back shows off the green in the feathers. Enjoy!

Yosemite Snow

This was taken a year ago while visiting Yosemite with good friend and fellow photographer Dave Cattuzzo, also a member of this blog. This year the park closed because of severe wind and snow damage. Enjoy this winter weather while we have it because spring is just around the corner with summer on it’s heels. Stay healthy.

Door Knob

It’s interesting what you can find around your own house. Especially if that house is over 100 years old. This is what one of the glass door knobs looks like in my 1919 Bungalow.

Es ist interessant, was Sie rund um Ihr eigenes Haus finden können. Besonders wenn das Haus über 100 Jahre alt ist. So sieht einer der Glastürgriffe in meinem Bungalow von 1919 aus.

Morning Dew Fading

Emotions are not always so clear; therefore, we associate emotions much more with “out of focus” as some might say. There is power in what you, at first, can only envision, but starts the brain wheels rolling.

Almond Blossom

I discovered the first Almond blossoms this morning. While many parts of the Eastern US experience winter conditions, Spring has started in Central California. Enjoy the seasons and the image!

Room with a view

Winterwonderland in Moorfleet, Hamburg. – After the devastating storm surge in Hamburg in 1962 with 315 fatalities, the dikes were reinforced and heightened. Due to the generally increasing water level, improvements have already been made for several years.

Winter im Kleingarten

In Wolfsburg gibt es viele Kleingarten-Kolonien, diese ist ganz in meiner Nachbarschaft. Ab und zu gehe ich dort spazieren. Derzeit sieht so aus, als wäre die gesamte Anlage noch im Winterschlaf.

In Wolfsburg there are many allotment garden colonies, this one is right in my neighborhood. Every now and then I go for a walk there. At the moment it looks as if the whole site is still in hibernation.

Frozen Creek

An unusually cold storm brought nearly 2 feet of snow to Prescott, Arizona. This creek was frozen over completely.

Hoch hinaus

Die letzten Tage musste ich ja im Krankenhaus verbringen. Das war in sofern schade, da wir zur Zeit besonders schönes Winterwetter haben und ich normalerweise mit der Kamera unterwegs gewesen wäre. So muss es heute mal ein Foto mit meinem Smartphone tun. Das Bild zeigt unseren Wolfsburger Fernsehturm vom Krankenhaus aus gesehen.
The last few days I had to spend in the hospital. That was a pity in so far as we currently have particularly nice winter weather and I would normally have been on the road with the camera. So it must do today times a photo with my smartphone. The picture shows our Wolfsburg TV tower seen from the hospital.
