Weekly Photo Challenge: Grand

Dennis

This image is my entry to the Weekly Photo Challenge: Grand. The gate on the left side of the image is called Holstentor (in english: Holsten Gate) and it is the landmark of the town Lübeck where I live. People who are interested about this beautiful and old architecture, might want to check out the article about the Holsten Gate on Wikipedia. While I know a lot about our landmark, I am actually little bit too lazy to prepare a complex and huge article. But I might hit that topic in the future too as I still have a lot … Continue reading Weekly Photo Challenge: Grand

The Red Sky

Dennis

Time for a new photo. The husband of my mother took this photo of Lübeck´s sky in the morning from a highrise. But I edited the photo a little bit with an android app. I think I have shown you some of my Pixlr-o-matic images already in the past. I like this little cool app. If you’re not at home but if you want to play with some effects and so, this little app is very handy and the results are often pretty cool. I really prefer it over Instagram. So, for sure I suggest you to try out Pixlr-o-matic! Continue reading The Red Sky

The photo is some months old and I remember that I didn´t have my own phone with me. The husband of my mother did take the photo and I got it later via WhatsApp and this is the reason why I do … Continue reading Weekly Photo Challenge: Horizon

A Beautiful Street in Lübeck and a Church

Dennis

I walked through the historic downtown of Lübeck, like I mentioned yesterday. As Lübeck is a town of the medieval time and as Lübeck was the Queen of the Hanseatic League, you can still see the charm of that time in the architecture today. That´s why we call the old part of the city “Historic Downtown” or in german “Altstadt” here. On the photo above you can see a street called “Weberstraße” and in the background you see the church called “St. Aegidien Kirche”. The inner city of Lübeck has a lot of big churches from old times. There are … Continue reading A Beautiful Street in Lübeck and a Church
